Safety instructions
Designated use
The force transducers in the type series U9C are solely designed for measur
ing static and dynamic tensile and compressive forces within the load limits
specified by the technical data for the respective maximum capacities. Any
other use is not the designated use.
To ensure safe operation, it is essential to comply with the regulations in the
mounting instructions, the safety requirements listed below, and the data speci
fied in the technical data sheets. It is also essential to observe the applicable
legal and safety regulations for the application concerned.
Force transducers are not intended for use as safety components. Please also
refer to the section: "Additional safety precautions". Proper and safe operation
of the force transducer requires proper transportation, correct storage, siting
and mounting, and careful operation.
Loading capacity limits
The data in the technical data sheet must be complied with when using the
force transducer. In particular, the respective maximum loads specified must
never be exceeded. The following limits set out in the technical data sheets
must not be exceeded
