SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
1 SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Intended use
The force transducers of TOP Transfer types: TOP-Z30A and TOP-Z4A must be used for
force comparison measurements (force transfer). Use for any additional purpose shall be
deemed to be not as intended.
In the interests of safety, the transducer should only be operated as described in the
Mounting Instructions. It is also essential to observe the appropriate legal and safety
regulations for the application concerned during use. The same applies to the use of ac
cessories.
The transducer is not a safety element within the meaning of its use as intended. For safe
and trouble‐free operation, this transducer must not only be correctly transported, stored,
sited and installed but must also be carefully operated and maintained.
General dangers of failing to follow the safety instructions
The force transducers TOP-Z30A and TOP-Z4A are state‐of‐the‐art and failsafe. Trans
ducers can give rise to remaining dangers if they are inappropriately installed and oper
ated by untrained personnel.
Everyone involved with the installation, commissioning, maintenance or repair of a force
transducer must have read and understood the Mounting Instructions and in particular
the technical safety instructions.
Remaining dangers
The scope of supply and performance of the transducer covers only a small area of force
measurement technology. In addition, equipment planners, installers and operators
should plan, implement and respond to the safety engineering considerations of force
measurement technology in such a way as to minimize remaining dangers. Prevailing
regulations must be complied with at all times. There must be reference to the remaining
dangers associated with force measurement technology.
Unauthorized conversions and modifications are prohibited
The transducer must not be modified from the design or safety engineering point of view
except with our express agreement. Any modification shall exclude all liability on our part
for any damage resulting therefrom.
Qualified personnel
These transducers must only be installed by qualified personnel, strictly in accordance
with the specifications in conjunction with the safety requirements and regulations listed
below. It is also essential to observe the appropriate legal and safety regulations for the
application concerned. The same applies to the use of accessories.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
4
Qualified personnel means persons entrusted with the installation, assembly, commis
sioning and operation of the product, who possess the appropriate qualifications for their
function.
Conditions at the place of installation
Protect the transducer from moisture and dampness or weather such as rain, snow, etc.
Maintenance
The force transducers TOP-Z30A and TOP-Z4A are maintenance‐free.
Accident prevention
The prevailing accident prevention regulations must be taken into account, even though
the nominal force values in the destructive range are well in excess of the full scale value.

APPLICATION NOTES

4 APPLICATION NOTES
Force transducer TOP Transfer
High precision force transducers in the type series TOP-Z30A and TOP-Z4A measure
compressive and tensile forces.
Because they measure static and quasi-static forces with extremely high accuracy and
reproducibility, they must be handled very carefully. Particular care must be taken when
transporting and installing the devices. Dropping or knocking the transducers may cause
permanent damage. It is recommended, as the TOP Transfer force transducers are peak
precision transducers for transfer measurements, that the ambient temperature is main
tained constant in the range of the nominal temperature.
Force transducers TOP-Z30A and TOP-Z4A with DKD certificate
The transducers are by default calibrated in the pressure direction. They can also be DKD
calibrated in the tensile direction on request. However, the transducer should be loaded
and used in one force direction only for high precision measurements.
The technical data lists the permissible limits for mechanical, thermal and electrical
stress. It is essential that these are taken into account when planning the measuring
set‐up, during installation and ultimately during operation.
To achieve optimum measurement results, the transducer must be connected to a highly
accurate amplifier (e.g. DMP40 from HBK).
