Safety instructions
Liability Insurance Association) when using the force transducers. A force
transducer can break, particularly if it is overloaded. The breakage of a force
transducer can cause damage to property or injury to persons in the vicinity of
the force transducer.
If force transducers are not used as intended, or if the safety instructions or
specifications in the mounting and operating instructions are ignored, it is also
possible that a force transducer may fail or malfunction, with the result that
persons may be injured or property damaged (due to the loads acting on or
being monitored by the force transducer).
The scope of supply and performance of the transducer covers only a small
area of force measurement technology, as measurements with (resistive) strain
gage sensors require electronic amplification, and measurement chains require
further signal processing. Equipment planners, installers and operators should
always plan, implement and respond to the safety engineering considerations
of force measurement technology in such a way as to minimize residual
dangers. Pertinent national and local regulations must be complied with.
