Why Choose the Carlo Gavazzi S142CRXA924 Photoelectric Amplifier?
The Carlo Gavazzi S142CRXA924 is a single-channel photoelectric amplifier with SPDT relay output and multiplex functionality, designed for compatible through-beam photoelectric sensor heads in industrial machinery and automation systems. As part of the Carlo Gavazzi S142 series, it combines automatic distance adjustment, sensor diagnostics and a Master/Slave multiplex system for dependable detection where multiple photoelectric channels operate in close proximity.
Designed for through-beam sensing applications, the S142CRXA924 supports sensing distances of up to 50,000 mm (50 m) with compatible sensor heads. Its multiplex Master/Slave function provides high immunity to interference from neighbouring photoelectric systems, making it particularly suitable for conveyor, material-handling and production installations requiring several adjacent sensing beams.
The S142CRXA924 operates from a nominal 24 V AC/DC supply and provides an SPDT relay output. Automatic sensing-distance adjustment, diagnostic functionality and an 11-pole plug connection simplify setup and integration into industrial control systems, while the compact amplifier housing is suitable for control-panel and socket-mounted installations.

Multiplex Photoelectric Detection for Industrial Automation
A photoelectric amplifier processes signals from separate through-beam emitter and receiver heads and converts the detected optical condition into an electrical switching signal for the machine-control system. Through-beam arrangements provide dependable long-distance detection, while locating the amplifier separately gives engineers convenient access to adjustment, diagnostics and output connections.
The Carlo Gavazzi S142CRXA924 incorporates automatic sensing-distance adjustment and a Master/Slave multiplex function specifically intended to provide high immunity to interference between neighbouring photoelectric systems. This makes it particularly useful where several through-beam sensors are installed close together and reliable detection must be maintained without unwanted optical interaction.
Typical Applications
- Long-range through-beam object detection.
- Multiple adjacent photoelectric sensing systems.
- Industrial conveyors and material handling equipment.
- Packaging and production machinery.
- Warehouse and logistics automation.
- Automated manufacturing and assembly lines.
- Presence and position monitoring.
- Industrial machine-control systems.
