  • Page 5: Technical Description

    Technical Description Area of Application SIWAREX R load cells are used for static and dynamic measurements of forces and weights. They can be used for almost all applications in industrial weighing technology. These may be for example: • container, hopper or platform scales, •...
  • Page 6 Figure 1-2 Principle diagram of a Wheatstone bridge The SIWAREX R load cells are usually made of high-grade steel and are welded hermetically sealed. This provides high corrosion protection and protection rating. Most series are licensed for use in scales with mandatory calibration of class III according to DIN EN 45501 and comply with OIML R60 3000d.

    • by setting down the load in free fall, • when persons are leaning/standing on the scales, • by wind forces on the side of a silo facing away from the wind. SIWAREX R Load Cells Operating Manual A5E00159640...
  • Page 8 The deflections to be installed should correspond to the principles used in weighing technology. Ball-jointed deflections are available for most SIWAREX R combi- installation units. Ball bolt deflectors up to a transverse load of 1000 kN are available on request.
  • Page 9 For protection against undesirable electrical currents such as they occur when welding or from lightning, the load cells must be bridged with a highly flexible grounding cable (e.g. SIWAREX R grounding cable 7MH3 701-1AA1). The substructure must withstand the planned loads. The application surface must have a roughness of a max.
  • Page 10: Installation/Assembly

    Installation/Assembly Installation SIWAREX R load cells may only be assembled and connected by qualified personnel. If a scales is equipped with a single load cell, this can be connected directly to the weighing module if space allows. To bridge greater distances the connecting cable can be extended through a junction box.
  • Page 11 If load cells with 4-wire connecting cables are used, two bridges must be inserted additionally: Bridge 1: EXC- to SENSE- Bridge 2: EXC+ to SENSE+ Load cells Junction box Weighing module Figure 2-1 Parallel connection in 4-wire technology SIWAREX R Load Cells Operating Manual A5E00159640...

  • Page 13: Assembly

    Load cells are high-precision components and must be handled with care especially during transportation and assembly. CAUTION Mechanical shock or dropping can cause irreparable damage to the load cell. Load cells may not be carried by the connecting cables. SIWAREX R Load Cells Operating Manual A5E00159640...
  • Page 14 The load cell seat must be horizontal, completely level and, like the load cell base, absolutely clean. The contact surfaces of the force applications must be lubricated with high- performance grease. SIWAREX R Load Cells Operating Manual A5E00159640...
  • Page 15 When these measures are taken it must be considered that the force application also needs to be well sealed at the top of the load cell to effectively prevent penetration by moisture. SIWAREX R Load Cells Operating Manual A5E00159640...
  • Page 16: Disassembly

    Relieve load on the load cell and remove carefully without using force. • Do not cut the cable if the load cell is to be used again or sent in for repair. • Do not carry or pull the load cell by the cable. SIWAREX R Load Cells Operating Manual A5E00159640...
