The integrated overload protection ensures that the load cell is not damaged by static overloading with vertical forces of up to 5 kN.

The load cells can be installed on the base plate and aligned even before final installation of the scales. This ensures that the permissible spring excursion of the load cell is precisely set, up to contact with the overload protection.

The load cell is not included in the scope of delivery of the base plate with overload protection.
