Efficient Non-contact Liquid Level Sensor for Containers OD>11mm: Ensure Precision and Reliability in Liquid Level Detection

The non-contact capacitive liquid level sensor is designed for accurate and real-time liquid detection in non-metallic containers or pipes with an outer diameter greater than 11mm. This advanced sensor is ideal for applications in tanks, water dispensers, and various industrial settings. Developed using cutting-edge signal processing technology, it guarantees high sensitivity and stability, even in the presence of corrosive liquids like strong acids and alkalis.
Equipped with an adjustable sensitivity feature and a status indicator, this sensor offers reliable performance for both curved and flat surfaces, arcs, cylindrical containers, and piping fluids. The included 4-pin sensor adapter allows for seamless integration with Arduino and other main controllers, making it a versatile choice for various liquid detection needs.
 
Key Features:
 
  • High Stability and Sensitivity: Experience precise liquid level detection with adjustable sensitivity and real-time status feedback.
  • Non-contact Detection: Suitable for non-metallic containers and pipes, unaffected by corrosive liquids and impurities.
  • Advanced Technology: Utilizes high-speed signal processing chips for accurate measurement without mechanical components.
  • Versatile Application: Penetrates all types of non-metallic containers, including plastic, glass, and ceramic, with a detection thickness of up to 20mm.
  • Wide Voltage Range: Operates within a 5~12V range, accommodating various circuits and applications.
  • Strong Anti-interference: High sensitivity and strong resistance to external electromagnetic interference, with special treatment for power frequency and common mode interference.

Non-Contact & Hygienic Detection

The non-contact water sensor's main advantage is its non-contact design. It is mounted on the container's exterior, so it never comes into contact with the liquid inside. This non-invasive approach prevents fluid contamination while also protecting the sensor from corrosion caused by harsh chemicals such as strong acids and alkalis. It makes the sensor ideal for sealed containers, food-grade applications, and detecting the presence of high-temperature liquids such as boiling water. The IP65 waterproof rating provides durability in a variety of settings.

High Compatibility & Versatility

This Arduino liquid level sensor is designed for broad application and can penetrate a variety of non-metallic materials, including plastic, glass, and ceramic, with a wall thickness of up to 20mm. Its design works well on a variety of surfaces, whether flat, curved, or cylindrical, making it ideal for tanks, containers, and pipes with an outside diameter of 11mm or more. The operational voltage range of 5–12V allows for easy integration with various circuits and microcontrollers, such as Arduino.

Adjustable Sensitivity & Stable Performance

The water dispenser sensor has configurable sensitivity for accurate detection across various materials and container thicknesses. This enables fine-tuning to obtain best performance and dependability in any given setting. It is designed with a pure electronic circuit and a non-mechanical structure, providing great stability and a long operational life. The design features particular treatment for power frequency and common mode interference, resulting in high resistance to external electromagnetic noise.

Real-Time Status Indication

An integrated status indicator provides real-time visual feedback on liquid levels. This integrated light alerts you when liquid has reached the sensor's detection point, making installation, troubleshooting, and real-time monitoring easier. The IP65 liquid level sensor produces a simple high-level digital signal, making it simple to collect data using a microcontroller in automated control systems.

Applications

  • Create an automatic water dispenser or a self-filling pet water bowl.
  • Developing a clever water level control system for an aquarium or hydroponics setup.
  • Installing a high/low level alarm on a water tank or sump pump.
  • Fluid levels can be monitored in industrial or laboratory environments without contaminating or damaging the sensors.
  • Saving Plants - DIY Plant Watering Device: To avoid having yellow and dead leaves, this project offers the concept of creating an automatic plant watering device to save the plants.
