I want to detect liquid through a tank wall.
If the liquid is conductive and the tank wall is plastic, PVC, fiberglass, glass or another non-conductive material use an unshielded sensor.  This will work with fairly thick tank walls.
If the liquid is non-conductive you may need to use a shielded sensor, however, they are not able to detect through as thick a wall as above.
In no case can a capacitive sensor detect through a metal tank wall.
