Description

The Pro-Range XKC-Y26PNP operates on a capacitive sensing principle, detecting changes in dielectric constant caused by the presence of liquid on the opposite side of a non-metallic container wall. This non-invasive method eliminates contamination risk and is ideal for sterile or corrosive fluid applications.

Engineered for industrial environments, the sensor features a robust housing and stable signal conditioning electronics, ensuring reliable performance across a wide temperature range, including cold, hot, and boiling liquids. Its long service life and immunity to scale buildup make it suitable for continuous monitoring in demanding process control systems.

Key Features

  • Non-Invasive Level Detection: Capacitive sensing technology detects liquid through container walls without physical contact, preserving system integrity.
  • Broad Material Compatibility: Designed specifically for use with glass, plastic, ceramic, and other non-metallic vessels.
  • Industrial-Grade Durability: Constructed to withstand exposure to corrosive chemicals, high temperatures, and humid environments.
  • Flexible Electrical Integration: Compatible with 5V, 12V, and 24V DC control systems common in automation and PLC panels.

Frequently Asked Questions

What types of containers can this sensor work with?

The XKC-Y26PNP is designed exclusively for non-metallic containers, such as those made from plastic, glass, ceramic, or PVC. It detects liquid by sensing dielectric changes through the container wall. It will not function correctly on metallic surfaces due to shielding effects.

How do I wire and interface the PNP output?

The sensor provides a PNP (sourcing) open-collector output. Connect the brown wire to your DC positive supply (5-24V), the blue wire to DC negative (GND), and the black wire as the signal output. This black output wire will switch to supply voltage (high) when liquid is detected, suitable for connecting to PLC digital inputs or microcontroller pins with a pull-down resistor.

Can this sensor detect different types of liquids?

Yes, it is compatible with a wide range of liquids including water, oils, acids, alkalis, and boiling fluids. The adjustable sensitivity potentiometer allows you to fine-tune the detection threshold to account for variations in liquid conductivity and container wall thickness, ensuring reliable operation across different media.
