mpf2-115rsai – photo amp 2ch 115va test break
Carlo Gavazzi MPF2-115RSAI is a two-channel 115 V AC adjustable photoelectric amplifier with multiplexed sensing, relay outputs and test-break functionality for compatible MPF through-beam detection systems.
Why Choose the Carlo Gavazzi MPF2-115RSAI Photoelectric Amplifier?
The Carlo Gavazzi MPF2-115RSAI is a reliable two-channel photoelectric sensor amplifier designed for through-beam detection in industrial automation, powered doors and gate systems. As part of the Carlo Gavazzi MPF multiplex photoelectric sensor series, it is designed for use with compatible MPFT transmitters and MPFR receivers to provide dependable non-contact object and obstruction detection.
The MPF2-115RSAI provides two multiplexed sensing channels, helping prevent optical cross-talk between adjacent photoelectric beams while allowing two sensing points to be managed from a single amplifier. Adjustable channel sensitivity provides flexibility during commissioning, while the modulated infrared sensing system supports stable detection in demanding industrial environments.
Operating from a 115 V AC ±15% supply, the MPF2-115RSAI supports compatible MPF through-beam sensors with a nominal sensing distance of up to 15 m. The RSAI configuration combines distance adjustment with inverted mute operation and a test-break function, while terminal connections and a compact industrial housing simplify integration into electrical control systems.

Reliable Two-Channel Photoelectric Detection
Through-beam photoelectric systems use separate emitters and receivers positioned opposite one another. An object or obstruction is detected when it interrupts the infrared beam between the sensing heads, providing dependable non-contact detection for machinery, powered doors, gates and automated equipment.
The MPF2-115RSAI manages two multiplexed photoelectric channels from one amplifier. Multiplexing allows adjacent sensing beams to operate without interfering with one another, while adjustable sensitivity, relay outputs and test functionality provide the control flexibility required for industrial automation and access-control installations.
Typical Applications
- Industrial doors and powered gate systems.
- Two-beam obstruction detection systems.
- Conveyor and material handling equipment.
- Packaging and production machinery.
- Industrial access-control equipment.
- Machine automation requiring multiple photoelectric sensing points.
