Lanbao LE10 5/8mm DC Rectangular Inductive Sensor

Lanbao LE10 5/8mm DC Rectangular Inductive Sensor

Lanbao LE10 Series is a compact rectangular inductive proximity sensor for non-contact metal detection in space-limited automation equipment. Its small block-style housing, 10-30V DC supply, and NPN / PNP output options make it suitable for machine-position feedback, metal target detection, and compact equipment integration.

This listing covers LE10SF05 and LE10SN08 variants with flush 5mm or non-flush 8mm sensing distances. Normally-open and normally-closed logic options are available in both NPN and PNP output types, helping the sensor match different PLC, controller, and I/O module input requirements.

Integration Notes & Hardware Guidance

• Output selection: Choose NPN or PNP according to the input type of your PLC, controller, counter, or I/O module.
• Logic selection: Choose normally open or normally closed based on the required signal state when a metal target is detected.
• Sensing-distance selection: Choose 5mm flush variants for shielded installation or 8mm non-flush variants when additional sensing distance is needed.
• Mounting condition: Keep the metal target within the assured operating range and leave suitable clearance around non-flush versions to avoid false switching.
• Wiring check: Confirm supply voltage, output polarity, and cable wiring before applying power to the sensor.

FAQ

What does the Lanbao LE10 sensor detect?

It detects metal targets using inductive proximity sensing, without physical contact with the target.

What sensing distances are available?

This listing includes 5mm flush variants and 8mm non-flush variants. Select the version that matches your mounting condition and detection distance.

How do I choose NPN or PNP?

Match the output type to your controller input. Choose NPN or PNP according to the wiring standard used by your PLC, controller, or I/O module.

What is the difference between NO and NC?

NO means the output switches on when a metal target is detected. NC means the output switches off when a metal target is detected.

Is this sensor suitable for compact installations?

Yes. The LE10 series uses a compact rectangular housing, making it useful where a round threaded sensor is difficult to install.
