Description

The YZC-133 is a single-point, straight-bar load cell utilizing a bonded foil strain gauge technology. When force is applied, the resulting strain alters the resistance of the internal gauges arranged in a Wheatstone bridge configuration. This change in resistance produces a millivolt-level output signal proportional to the applied load, enabling precise weight measurement.

Designed for electronic weighing applications, this sensor requires an external signal conditioner or analog-to-digital converter, such as the 24-bit HX711 module, to amplify and digitize its low-level output. Its aluminum alloy body provides a robust yet lightweight structure suitable for bench-top scales, process control, and force monitoring systems where accurate, repeatable measurements are critical.

Key Features

  • High-precision strain gauge sensor with 10kg full-scale capacity.
  • Low non-linearity and hysteresis (±0.03% F.S.) for accurate readings.
  • Standard 1.0mV/V output simplifies interface with common instrumentation amplifiers.
  • Rugged aluminum alloy construction offers a high-value build for demanding environments.
  • Pre-wired with 18cm cable for straightforward integration into measurement systems.
  • Wide operating temperature range supports use in varied climatic conditions.
  • Low creep (0.03% F.S./30min) ensures stable readings under sustained load.

Applications

  • Bench-top electronic scales and precision weighing platforms.
  • Industrial process control and batching systems for force monitoring.
  • Overload protection and safety cut-off mechanisms in machinery.
  • Educational projects demonstrating strain gauge and Wheatstone bridge principles.
  • Force feedback systems in robotics and automation.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the recommended excitation voltage for the YZC-133 load cell?

The YZC-133 load cell is designed to operate with an excitation voltage between 5V and 10V DC. Applying voltage within this range ensures the strain gauge bridge is properly powered and provides the specified 1.0mV/V output sensitivity. Exceeding 10V may cause overheating and damage the sensor.

How do I connect this load cell to an Arduino for reading weight?

You need a signal conditioning module like the HX711 24-bit ADC. Connect the load cell's four wires (typically Red: E+, Black: E-, Green: A-, White: A+) to the HX711 bridge inputs. Then connect the HX711's VCC, GND, DT (Data), and SCK (Clock) pins to your Arduino. Libraries are available to handle the communication and convert the digital readings to weight.

What is the accuracy and non-linearity of this 10kg sensor?

The YZC-133 has a non-linearity specification of ±0.03% of Full Scale (F.S.), which equates to ±3 grams on its 10kg capacity. Combined with hysteresis and repeatability also rated at ±0.03% F.S., it provides reliable and consistent measurements suitable for many electronic weighing applications.

Can this load cell be used in outdoor or wet environments?

While the aluminum body is durable, the YZC-133 is not rated with a specific IP (Ingress Protection) code. The strain gauge and solder joints are protected by a sealant, but exposure to direct water, high humidity, or corrosive chemicals should be avoided. For harsh environments, a load cell with a stated IP67 or IP68 rating and stainless steel construction is recommended.
