Why Choose the Carlo Gavazzi MPF2-912RSLA Photoelectric Amplifier?
The Carlo Gavazzi MPF2-912RSLA is a two-channel photoelectric amplifier designed for Carlo Gavazzi MPF through-beam sensing systems. It provides the power, signal processing and switching interface required for compatible MPFT transmitters and MPFR receivers, making it particularly suitable for automatic doors, gates, industrial machinery and automation systems requiring two independent sensing channels.
This MPF2 amplifier operates from a flexible 12–24 V AC/DC supply and incorporates a test make function for external system testing. The two-channel architecture allows two transmitter and receiver pairs to be connected to a single amplifier, helping simplify installations where two photoelectric detection points are required.
The MPF system uses separate transmitter and receiver heads with a nominal sensing range of 15 m. The MPF2-912RSLA features an IP40-rated amplifier enclosure intended for protected installation, while the separate sensing-head arrangement provides flexible positioning at the required detection points.

Reliable Multi-Channel Photoelectric Control for Industrial Machinery
The MPF2-912RSLA provides the electronic interface between two compatible MPFT transmitter and MPFR receiver pairs and the connected control system. Each transmitter sends an optical beam towards its corresponding receiver, allowing objects or obstructions to be detected when they interrupt the sensing path.
Using a separate two-channel amplifier provides an efficient way to monitor two detection points while keeping the photoelectric heads compact. This arrangement is especially useful for automatic doors, access systems and industrial machinery where reliable long-range non-contact detection and centralised signal processing are required.
Typical Applications
- Automatic and industrial door sensing systems.
- Gate and access-control installations.
- Multi-beam obstruction detection.
- Conveyor product and object detection.
- Packaging and processing machinery.
- Material handling and sorting equipment.
- Industrial machinery requiring two photoelectric detection channels.
