Why Choose the Carlo Gavazzi MPF1-912RSLAI Photoelectric Amplifier?
The Carlo Gavazzi MPF1-912RSLAI is a single-channel photoelectric sensor amplifier designed for use with Carlo Gavazzi MPF separate transmitter and receiver sensing heads. Developed for industrial doors, gates, machinery and automation systems, it processes the through-beam sensor signal and provides a relay switching output for straightforward integration with control equipment.
This MPF1 variant operates from a flexible 12–24 V AC/DC supply and incorporates a test function with break-contact operation. The single-channel design supports one photoelectric sensing pair, while the separate-amplifier architecture allows compact transmitter and receiver heads to be installed at the detection point with the amplifier positioned within the control enclosure.
The MPF1-912RSLAI is designed for MPF through-beam systems with a nominal sensing distance of 15 m, with compatible sensor configurations covering approximately 6–20 m. Its rectangular polycarbonate housing, terminal connections and compact 86 × 50 × 57 mm format make it a practical solution for reliable industrial photoelectric control.

Reliable Photoelectric Control for Industrial Automation
The MPF1-912RSLAI provides the interface between a compatible MPFT transmitter, MPFR receiver and the machine or access-control system. The transmitter generates the optical beam while the receiver monitors its presence. The amplifier processes this sensing signal and changes the state of its relay output when the required beam condition occurs.
Using separate sensing heads and an amplifier provides flexibility when designing machinery and automatic door systems. The compact optical heads can be positioned at the required detection points while the MPF1-912RSLAI remains with the electrical control equipment, providing convenient access to the power, test and relay connections.
Typical Applications
- Automatic and industrial door sensing systems.
- Gate and access-control detection.
- Through-beam obstruction monitoring.
- Conveyor product and object detection.
- Packaging and processing machinery.
- Material handling and industrial automation equipment.
