Description

XKC-Y26A 24V DC Thin-Tube Non-Contact Liquid Level Sensor with NPN Output

The XKC-Y26A-NPN 24V is a thin-tube non-contact capacitive liquid level sensor designed for detecting liquid inside small-diameter non-metallic pipes. The sensor is mounted externally around the pipe using its integrated spring-clip mechanism and detects liquid through the pipe wall without requiring direct contact with the liquid.

This model operates from a 24V DC power supply and provides an NPN transistor output interface. It is suitable for water pipelines, liquid dispensing equipment, automatic filling systems, water purification equipment, industrial automation, PLC systems and liquid-level monitoring applications.

Features

  • Non-contact liquid detection through non-metallic pipe walls
  • 24V DC operating voltage
  • NPN transistor output interface
  • Normally Open / Normally Closed output selection
  • Suitable for 5mm to 10mm pipe outer diameter
  • Maximum applicable pipe diameter approximately 11mm
  • Integrated spring-clip pipe mounting design
  • No cutting or drilling of the pipe required
  • Low current consumption of ≤ 5mA
  • Maximum output current up to 100mA
  • 500ms response time
  • Liquid level accuracy of ±1.5mm
  • Adjustable sensing sensitivity
  • Suitable for cold, hot and boiling liquids
  • High sensitivity and stable detection
  • Strong anti-interference capability
  • Pure electronic non-mechanical sensing structure
  • PC V0 fire-retardant housing
  • IP67 waterproof protection
  • CE certified
  • RoHS 2.0 compliant

Working Principle

The XKC-Y26A-NPN uses the capacitive sensing principle. When no liquid is present near the sensing section, the sensor maintains its normal static capacitance. As liquid inside the pipe reaches the sensing position, additional parasitic capacitance is introduced.

The internal signal-processing circuit detects this capacitance change and converts it into an electrical signal. When the change exceeds the preset threshold, the sensor determines that liquid has reached the detection point and switches the NPN output.

Wire Connection

  • Brown Wire – VCC: Connect to positive 24V DC supply
  • Blue Wire – GND: Connect to power supply negative / 0V
  • Yellow Wire – OUT: NPN signal output
  • Black Wire – MODE: Normally Open / Normally Closed mode selection

Normally Open / Normally Closed Output Selection

  • Black MODE wire left disconnected: Normally Open (NO) output
  • When liquid is detected in NO mode, the NPN transistor turns ON
  • When no liquid is detected in NO mode, the NPN transistor remains OFF
  • Black MODE wire connected to GND / 0V: Normally Closed (NC) output
  • When liquid is detected in NC mode, the transistor turns OFF
  • When no liquid is detected in NC mode, the transistor turns ON
