7. Mount the junction box in a location where the load cell cables can be properly
terminated in the junction box. Do not mount the junction box on the scale.
Note: Each load cell is supplied with a standard length of cable. Do not lengthen or
shorten load cell cables in the field! Changing the length of a load cell cable will
affect the output signal from the load cell. If a cable is too long, simply coil the
excess cable and place it in or near the junction box. Nonstandard lengths of cable
can be ordered for applications that require them.
8. Connect the load cell cables to the junction box and terminate the wires according
to the wiring and color code decal on the underside of the junction box lid.
9. Connect the home run cable from the scale indicator to the junction box.
10. Confirm that all live-to-dead connections (such as piping) are flexible and securely
anchored at both the scale and dead connection point.
