The Pro-Range XKC-Y25PNP is a non-contact liquid level sensor designed for detecting liquid height through the walls of non-metallic containers. Operating from a 5-12V DC supply, it provides a PNP output for easy integration with PLCs, Arduino, and industrial control systems.

Features

  • True non-contact detection through container walls up to 10mm thick.
  • PNP output signal compatible with PLCs, microcontrollers, and industrial logic.
  • IP67 waterproof rating ensures reliable operation in damp or washdown environments.
  • ±1.5mm detection accuracy for precise level monitoring.
  • Wide 5-12V DC operating voltage range for flexible power supply options.

Description

The Pro-Range XKC-Y25PNP utilizes advanced signal processing technology to detect liquid levels without physical contact with the medium. By mounting the sensor probe externally on the container wall, it eliminates risks of corrosion, contamination, or pressure vessel penetration, making it ideal for monitoring aggressive, toxic, or sterile liquids.

This sensor is specifically engineered for non-metallic containers, providing a reliable solution for closed systems. Its high-speed processing chip compensates for variations in wall thickness and material, delivering a stable digital output signal that toggles based on the presence or absence of liquid at the detection point.

Key Features

  • External Mounting: Installs on the outer wall of the container; no need to drill, tap, or open the vessel.
  • Corrosion-Resistant Design: Safely monitors aggressive chemicals, strong acids, alkalis, and high-purity liquids.
  • Adjustable Sensitivity: Fine-tune detection threshold to accommodate different container materials and wall thicknesses.
  • High-Pressure Container Compatible: Suitable for use with pressurized or sealed vessels.
  • Durable Housing: Robust construction built for industrial and laboratory environments.
  • Simple Wiring: Standard 3-wire configuration (VCC, GND, Signal) with PNP open-collector output.

Applications

  • Chemical process tank level monitoring for acids, solvents, and caustics.
  • Water level detection in sealed reservoirs, humidifiers, or medical equipment.
  • Liquid level control in food & beverage processing within plastic totes or vessels.
  • High-pressure system monitoring in industrial hydraulic or coolant reservoirs.
  • Laboratory equipment for monitoring reagent levels in glass or plastic containers.

Frequently Asked Questions

What type of containers can this sensor be used with?

The XKC-Y25PNP is designed specifically for non-metallic containers such as plastic, glass, or ceramic. It cannot detect liquid levels through metal walls due to the shielding effect on its capacitive sensing field. The maximum recommended wall thickness is typically 10mm.

How do I wire and interface the PNP output?

The sensor has a standard 3-wire connection: Red (VCC: 5-12V DC), Black (GND), and Blue (PNP Signal Output). The blue wire will switch to VCC voltage (sourcing) when liquid is detected. This output can be connected directly to a PLC digital input, microcontroller pin (with a pull-down resistor), or relay module.

Can this sensor detect the exact level or just presence/absence?

This is a point-level sensor, meaning it provides a digital on/off signal when the liquid reaches the specific height where the probe is mounted. It does not provide continuous level measurement. For continuous monitoring, you would need an analog or ultrasonic sensor. Its accuracy for the detection point is ±1.5mm.

Is the sensor suitable for outdoor or wet environments?

Yes, with its IP67 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 damp environments, washdown areas, and outdoor applications, provided the electrical connections are properly sealed.
