Leuze IS 208FM/4NO.5-2E0-S8.3 Proximity Sensor

The Leuze IS 208FM/4NO.5-2E0-S8.3 offers a compact and robust sensing solution with an 8 mm diameter stainless steel housing and embedded M8 thread, allowing flush mounting in machines and panels. It operates on a wide 10–30 V DC supply voltage and features a PNP output with a normally open (NO) switching configuration, making it suitable for integration into PLC-controlled systems or safety circuits.

The sensor’s typical sensing range extends from 2 mm to 40 mm, providing the flexibility needed for metal target detection across different applications. It offers a switching frequency of up to 600 Hz, enabling reliable response even in moderately dynamic automation setups. Its M8 connector interface supports quick installation and easy servicing, while minimizing wiring complexity in control cabinets.

Built with a stainless steel AISI 303 sensing face and a rugged outer body, this sensor delivers mechanical strength and chemical resistance. It’s further enhanced with IP68/IP69K ingress protection, ensuring resistance to high-pressure water jets, steam, and dust — making it ideal for use in food-grade processing zones, pharmaceuticals, and washdown areas. The Leuze IS 208FM/4NO.5-2E0-S8.3 proximity sensor is a reliable and long-lasting component for engineers seeking consistent, maintenance-free sensing performance in demanding industrial environments.

The Leuze proximity sensor IS 208FM/4NO.5-2E0-S8.3 is optimized for detecting metallic objects in compact installations where hygiene and mechanical resilience are key. Its embedded design makes it ideal for integration into food packaging machines, robotic tool changers, and automated conveyor guides, especially where frequent cleaning or splashing is expected.

With IP68 and IP69K protection, the sensor withstands rigorous washdowns and is highly resistant to detergent, oil, and pressurized steam, allowing reliable operation in wet, dusty, or corrosive industrial conditions. Its stainless steel active surface maintains sensing stability under mechanical vibration or thermal shifts, ensuring uninterrupted machine uptime and fewer false signals during production cycles.
