mpf2-912rsa – photo amp 2ch 12-24v test make
Carlo Gavazzi MPF2-912RSA is a two-channel 12–24 V AC/DC photoelectric amplifier with relay output, test-make functionality, up to 15 m sensing range with compatible MPF heads and IP40 protection.
Why Choose the Carlo Gavazzi MPF2-912RSA Photoelectric Amplifier?
The Carlo Gavazzi MPF2-912RSA is a two-channel photoelectric amplifier designed for use with compatible separate transmitter and receiver heads in industrial through-beam sensing systems. Part of the Carlo Gavazzi MPF series, it provides signal processing and relay switching for applications such as automatic doors, gates, conveyors and machine automation.
The MPF2-912RSA operates from a flexible 12–24 V AC/DC supply and supports two photoelectric sensing channels, allowing two independent through-beam detection points to be managed from one amplifier. This RSA version includes a test-make input, enabling functional testing of the connected sensing arrangement.
With compatible MPF transmitter and receiver heads, the amplifier supports a nominal sensing range of up to 15 m. Its IP40 protection rating and operating temperature range of -20 to +60 °C make it suitable for installation within industrial control equipment and automation panels.

Reliable Two-Channel Photoelectric Control
The MPF2-912RSA works with separate through-beam photoelectric transmitters and receivers positioned across the areas being monitored. The amplifier evaluates the optical signals from two sensing channels and provides relay switching when a beam condition changes, allowing the detection state to be integrated into industrial control circuits.
Its two-channel configuration is particularly useful where two beam positions are required, such as automatic doors, industrial gates or machine openings. The integrated test-make function adds a convenient means of checking correct operation of the photoelectric sensing system as part of the wider machine or door control arrangement.
Typical Applications
- Automatic industrial doors and gates.
- Dual-beam presence and obstruction detection.
- Conveyor and material handling systems.
- Packaging and production machinery.
- Machine openings and access monitoring.
- Warehouse and logistics automation.
- Industrial control and machine-building systems.
