Lanbao LR05-Y-DC M5 1.5mm 3-Wire Inductive Sensor
Lanbao LR05-Y-DC 3-Wire Series is an extended-distance M5 cylindrical inductive proximity sensor for non-contact metal detection in compact automation equipment. Compared with standard short-distance M5 sensors, the LR05-Y series provides a 1.5mm flush sensing distance while keeping a miniature threaded housing.
This listing covers LR05AF15DNOY, LR05AF15DNCY, LR05AF15DPOY, and LR05AF15DPCY variants, with NPN or PNP output and normally-open or normally-closed logic options. Cable-output and E1 connector versions are available, allowing the sensor to match fixed wiring or service-friendly replacement 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.
- Distance planning: Use the 1.5mm rated distance as a reference and keep the target within the assured operating range for stable switching.
- Flush mounting: This model is designed for flush mounting, but nearby metal and target size can still affect the actual switching point.
- Connection choice: Select cable variants for fixed wiring or E1 connector variants when faster replacement and maintenance are important.

FAQ
What does the LR05-Y-DC sensor detect?
It detects metal targets using inductive proximity sensing, without physical contact with the target.
What is the sensing distance?
The LR05-Y-DC series uses a 1.5mm rated flush sensing distance, with an assured operating distance reference of 0-1.2mm.
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.
What is the difference between cable and E1 variants?
Cable variants use a fixed 2m PUR cable, while E1 variants use a connector-style connection for easier replacement and maintenance.
