IS 208MM/4NO-2N5-S12: 50109647 - Leuze M8 Non-Embedded Inductive Switch

The Leuze IS 208MM/4NO-2N5-S12 proximity sensor combines compact M8 threading with a larger 12 mm stainless steel housing to deliver robust sensing for non-flush mounting applications. This PNP normally open (NO) model operates within a 10–30 V DC supply range and features a sensing distance of 2.5 mm, allowing precise metal object detection across conveyors, grippers, and press tools. With a fast switching frequency of 4,500 Hz, it ensures accurate and responsive detection even in high-speed mechanical movements.

The sensor features an industrial-grade plastic active face paired with an M12 4-pin connector for quick integration into PLC-based automation setups. Rated at IP67, it is completely sealed against dust and resistant to splashing water and oil — ideal for use in production floors, machinery enclosures, and mobile equipment. The non-embedded mounting style increases detection sensitivity, making it suitable for scenarios requiring precise approach sensing or greater detection range than flush models offer.

Backed by Leuze’s proven engineering, the IS 208MM/4NO-2N5-S12 is trusted by manufacturers worldwide for its combination of compact design, high durability, and long service life. For operations looking to enhance machine uptime and sensing reliability, the Leuze IS 208MM/4NO-2N5-S12 Proximity Sensor is a long-term investment in quality automation.

The Leuze IS 208MM/4NO-2N5-S12 Proximity Sensor is ideally suited for applications that demand non-embedded sensing with higher sensitivity. It is commonly deployed in automated conveyors to detect the presence or absence of metallic items, in robotic arms to identify pick-up positions, or in packaging machines to confirm material alignment. The 2.5 mm sensing range offers reliable detection for thin or small parts that pass closely but not directly over the sensor face.

Maintenance teams and machine integrators prefer this sensor for its M12 connector, allowing fast replacement without rewiring. Its IP67 rating ensures performance even in environments with oil mist, water splashes, or vibration. The sensor’s stainless-steel housing withstands physical impacts, making it ideal for rugged industrial zones like stamping, metal forming, and bottling units. The 4,500 Hz switching frequency ensures zero-lag detection in high-speed processes, helping reduce rejections and increase throughput.

If you're looking for a fast, tough, and reliable sensor, the Leuze IS 208MM/4NO-2N5-S12 Proximity Sensor delivers long-term value across a wide range of sensing applications.
