Lanbao LR18X-AC/DC 5/8mm 2-Wire Inductive Sensor Lanbao LR18X-AC/DC 2-Wire Series is an M18 cylindrical inductive proximity sensor for non-contact metal detection in automation equipment, machine tools, conveyors, fixtures, and industrial control systems. The AC/DC 2-wire design supports a wide supply range, making it useful when the same sensor family needs to fit both AC and DC control environments. This listing covers LR18XCF05 and LR18XCN08 AC/DC 2-wire variants with normally-open or normally-closed output logic. Cable-output and E2 M12 connector versions are available, allowing the sensor to support fixed wiring or quick-disconnect maintenance workflows.
