Description

The Pro-Range XKC-Y28A-NC-DC sensor operates on a capacitive sensing principle, detecting changes in dielectric constant caused by the presence of liquid inside a non-metallic container. This non-contact method eliminates contamination risks and is ideal for monitoring corrosive, sterile, or high-purity fluids.

Featuring a robust IP67-rated enclosure, the sensor is protected against dust ingress and temporary immersion, making it suitable for demanding industrial settings. Its 5V DC power requirement and straightforward digital output facilitate seamless integration into control panels, data acquisition systems, and microcontroller-based projects.

Key Features

  • Non-contact capacitive detection through container walls (glass, plastic, ceramics).
  • Wide 5-24V DC operating voltage range for flexible system integration.
  • IP67 waterproof rating ensures reliable operation in wet or washdown environments.
  • Corrosion-resistant sensor housing for use with aggressive chemicals and solvents.
  • Adjustable sensitivity potentiometer for fine-tuning detection thresholds.
  • Fast response time enables real-time liquid level monitoring and control.
  • Durable, long-life construction with no moving parts for minimal maintenance.
  • Simple installation via mounting bracket or adhesive, requiring no tank modification.

Applications

  • Chemical processing tank level monitoring in non-metallic vessels.
  • Food & beverage industry liquid detection in plastic pipelines or storage totes.
  • Pharmaceutical and biotech sterile fluid level sensing in glass bioreactors.
  • Water treatment plant level control in PVC or polypropylene tanks.
  • Laboratory equipment and automated dispensing system fluid presence detection.

Frequently Asked Questions

What type of containers can this non-contact sensor work with?

The Pro-Range XKC-Y28A-NC sensor is designed specifically for non-metallic containers. It can detect liquid levels through the walls of materials like plastic (PP, PVC), glass, ceramics, and certain composite materials. It will not function correctly on metallic tanks due to electromagnetic shielding.

What is the operating voltage and output signal of this sensor?

The sensor operates on a nominal 5V DC supply, with a compatible range of 5 to 24V DC for flexibility. It provides a simple digital output signal (typically a high/low logic level) that indicates the presence or absence of liquid at the detection point, making it easy to interface with PLCs, microcontrollers, and relay modules.

How do I adjust the sensor's sensitivity and where should it be mounted?

A sensitivity adjustment potentiometer is located on the sensor body. Turn it to set the detection threshold for your specific container wall thickness and liquid type. Mount the sensor firmly against the outside wall of the container, ensuring full surface contact and avoiding air gaps, for reliable capacitive coupling.
