1. The sensor should be handled gently, especially for the small range sensor with aluminum alloy material as the elastomer, any impact or drop caused by vibration is likely to cause a large output error. In addition, it is necessary to protect the sensor outlet head and not to break it

2. When designing and installing the loading device, it should be ensured that the line of action of the loading force coincides with the axis of the force of the sensor, so as to minimize the influence of inclined load and eccentric load.

3. To prevent chemical corrosion. It is advisable to apply petroleum jelly to the outer surface of the tension transducer during installation. It should be avoided in direct sunlight and in places where the ambient temperature changes drastically, and protective or mitigation devices should be installed when it cannot be avoided.

4. In order to prevent the sensor from being damaged by the large current directly passing through the sensor body, it is forbidden to carry out electric welding operations after the sensor is installed, and the bypass made of copper braided wire should be added at both ends of the sensor loading device as a last resort.

5. The cable should not be lengthened by itself, and should be soldered at the joint when it is really needed to be lengthened, and moisture-proof sealant should be added.

6. The cable of the sensor should be kept away from the strong power supply line or the place with pulse wave, and the cable of the sensor should be inserted into the iron pipe separately when it cannot be avoided, and the connection distance should be shortened as much as possible.

7. In the case of high-precision use, the sensor and instrument should be used after 30 minutes of preheating.

8. The sensor should be stored in a dry, ventilated and non-corrosive gas room.
