YZC-131A 5kg Aluminum Load Cell Sensor with 18cm Wires
The YZC-131A is a straight-bar strain gauge load cell with a 5kg capacity, designed for precision weight and force measurement. It outputs a millivolt-per-volt signal compatible with instrumentation amplifiers like the HX711 for integration with Arduino, Raspberry Pi, and other microcontroller platforms.
Features
- 5kg (approx. 11 lb) rated capacity for precise force measurement.
- High-sensitivity output of 1.0 ± 0.1mV/V for accurate signal acquisition.
- Constructed from durable aluminum alloy with M4 mounting holes for secure installation.
- Includes 18cm pre-soldered wires for immediate connection to signal conditioners.
- Low nonlinearity (±0.03% F.S.) and repeatability (0.05% F.S.) for stable, reliable readings.

The YZC-131A load cell operates on the strain gauge principle, where applied force deforms an internal aluminum alloy structure, changing the electrical resistance of bonded strain gauges. This change produces a low-level analog output proportional to the load, which requires amplification via a dedicated module like the HX711 for digital conversion.
Engineered for stability, it features low creep and hysteresis specifications, making it suitable for applications requiring consistent measurement over time. Its compact 75 x 13 x 13 mm form factor and standard M4 mounting holes allow for straightforward integration into scales, force feedback systems, and structural monitoring setups.
