INTRODUCTION AND TECHNICAL DATA The Polyester junction box is designed for the parallel connection of load cells. Type KPK-4 No. of load cells up to 4 Housing size 75 x 230 x 50 mm Inputs 4x M12 Output 1x M16 The junction box type KPK can be connected to the instrumentation with a shielded 6-wire signal cable. The corner correction is done with resistors and/or potentiometer.
OUTPUT CABLE CONNECTION The signal cable (connection between junction box and the following electronics) should be a 6 – wire shielded cable and has to be kept as short as possible. Because this cable usually has a larger diameter than the load cell cable, you should use the larger cable gland in the middle of the box. Depending on type and manufacturer signal cables may have different colours. Therefore make your own choice.
