XKC-Y27B Thin Tube Liquid Level Sensor

The XKC-Y27B is a patented non-contact small-tube liquid level sensor developed by XINGKECHUANG, a brand with years of independent research and development experience in the sensor industry. This advanced sensor utilizes the capacitance of water to accurately detect the presence of liquid inside pipes, specifically designed to address the unique challenges of liquid level detection in small-diameter tubing ranging from 3mm to 10mm in outer diameter.

Engineered for industrial and commercial applications, the XKC-Y27B offers exceptional performance with high precision temperature drift compensation, adaptive sensitivity adjustment, and strong anti-interference capabilities. Its innovative card tube design ensures quick and hassle-free installation without the need for cable ties, making it an ideal solution for business customers seeking reliable and cost-effective liquid level monitoring solutions.

Key Features and Benefits

Non-Contact Capacitive Detection Technology

The XKC-Y27B employs cutting-edge capacitive sensing technology that detects liquid levels without direct contact with the liquid itself. This non-invasive approach eliminates the risk of contamination, prevents leaks, and significantly extends the sensor's service life. The sensor features high precision temperature drift compensation, ensuring accurate and consistent readings even in fluctuating temperature environments.

Easy Installation with Card Tube Design

One of the standout features of the XKC-Y27B is its innovative card tube design, which allows for tool-free installation in seconds. Simply clip the sensor onto the outside of the pipe, and it is ready to use – no cable ties, no drilling, and no modifications to the existing piping system required. This not only reduces installation time and labor costs but also minimizes downtime during maintenance or replacement.

Wide Compatibility and Adaptability

The XKC-Y27B is compatible with a wide range of pipe materials commonly used in industrial and commercial applications, including PVC, PPR, PP, acrylic, glass, plexiglass, silicone, and rubber tubing. It is available in five different models to accommodate pipes with outer diameters of 3mm, 4mm, 6mm, 8mm, and 10mm, ensuring a perfect fit for virtually any small-tube application. The sensor also features adaptive sensitivity adjustment, which automatically optimizes detection performance based on the specific pipe and liquid characteristics.

High Reliability and Strong Anti-Interference

Built to withstand harsh industrial environments, the XKC-Y27B features a robust PC V0 fireproof housing and offers strong anti-interference capabilities. It is immune to electromagnetic interference and can operate reliably in temperatures ranging from -20°C to 85°C with humidity levels between 5% and 80%. The sensor has a fast response time of 500mS, providing real-time liquid level detection for critical applications.

Typical Applications

The XKC-Y27B thin tube liquid level sensor is widely used in various industrial and commercial applications where accurate liquid level detection in small pipes is essential. Some of the most common applications include:

Coffee machines and beverage dispensing equipment

Medical piping systems and infusion devices

Refrigeration equipment and cooling systems

Water dispensers and water purification systems

Laboratory equipment and analytical instruments
