5.5 Electronic corner correction
5.5.1
General information
Minebea Intec load cells are produced according to high quality standards and have
precisely adjusted output values.
Nonetheless, mechanical imbalances can cause impermissible corner load errors to arise,
which will need to be offset by soldering in resistors.
The correct installation and accurate alignment of load cells are imperative for good
measurement results and significantly affect the behavior with corner loads. Therefore,
the installation and alignment of the load cell should always be checked first if a corner
error is identified.
If necessary, carry out mechanical height adjustment (see Installation manual of the load
cell).
NOTICE
Loss of calibration accuracy
An unstable signal can arise due to contact problems. This results in fluctuating zero
points, which lead to the loss of calibration accuracy.
Do not use a potentiometer.
Only use resistors of 0–5.62
Ω
(1%, P70 = 0.6 W) of size MBB0207
(approx. 2.5 × 6.5 mm) or CECC B.
5.5.2
Procedure
Electronic corner correction allows the sensitivity of each individual load cell to be
reduced separately.
The resistor required here can be calculated using the following formula:
R
Resistor integrated in the output circuit of the load
cell (the resistance value is normally <7
Ω
).
