Description

The Pro-Range XKC-Y29A-V utilizes a capacitive sensing principle to detect the presence or absence of liquid through non-metallic container walls without physical contact. This method prevents contamination, reduces sensor wear, and simplifies installation.

Featuring an IP67-rated enclosure, the sensor is protected against dust ingress and temporary immersion, making it suitable for industrial, agricultural, and food processing applications. Its analog voltage output provides a variable signal proportional to the detected state, enabling integration with a wide range of control and monitoring systems.

Key Features

  • Non-Contact Capacitive Detection: Senses liquid levels through container walls, eliminating contamination risk and sensor corrosion.
  • Analog Output Signal: Provides a 0-5V or 0-10V (configurable) output for precise level monitoring and interface with PLCs or ADCs.
  • Broad Voltage Compatibility: Supports DC 12-24V input, compatible with standard industrial and automotive power supplies.
  • Environmentally Robust: IP67 waterproof rating and an operating temperature range of -20°C to +85°C ensure durability.
  • Field-Adjustable Sensitivity: Integrated potentiometer allows fine-tuning for optimal performance with various container thicknesses and liquid dielectric constants.
  • Fast Response & High Reliability: Sub-500ms response time enables use in dynamic filling processes and automated control loops.

Applications

  • Level monitoring in chemical storage tanks and IBC totes without direct liquid contact.
  • Fill-level detection for bottled water, beverages, and food products in hygienic production lines.
  • Liquid presence sensing in agricultural irrigation systems and water treatment equipment.
  • Leak detection and sump pump control in basements or industrial facilities.
  • Integration into automated dispensing machines and liquid handling robotics.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the operating voltage range for the Pro-Range XKC-Y29A-V sensor?

The sensor operates on a wide DC voltage range from 12V to 24V. This makes it compatible with common industrial power supplies, 24V PLC systems, and automotive electrical systems without requiring a precise voltage regulator.

How does the non-contact detection work, and what materials can it sense through?

It uses capacitive sensing to detect changes in dielectric constant caused by the presence of liquid. It can sense through non-metallic container walls such as plastic, glass, or fiberglass. The sensor's adjustable sensitivity allows it to be tuned for different wall thicknesses and liquid types.

What type of output signal does this sensor provide, and how do I interface with it?

The sensor provides an analog voltage output (typically 0-5V or 0-10V, depending on configuration). This signal can be directly connected to the analog input of a PLC, data acquisition module, or microcontroller (like an Arduino) using an ADC to read the level status or approximate fill percentage.

Is the sensor suitable for outdoor or wet environments?

Yes, with its IP67 waterproof rating, the sensor is protected against dust ingress and can withstand temporary immersion in water up to 1 meter for 30 minutes. This makes it suitable for outdoor installations, washdown areas, and damp industrial environments.
