Product Line Specifications MICRO-AMP System Remote sensors, modulated amplifiers, and logic modules A versatile system of compact, high-performance remote sensors modulated amplifiers, and logic modules Remote sensors for opposed, retro, diffuse, convergent, and fixed-field sensing modes, in a variety of sizes, shapes, and housing styles to suit nearly any remote sensing application Rugged, epoxy-encapsulated amplifier modules also logic modules for one-shot, 4-input gate (AND, NOR, XNOR), latch, and delay functions Plug-in amplifier and logic modules are track mountable for ease of installation and replacement (helpful in large systems) All modules have an output indicator for system monitoring amplifier modules include Banner s exclusive AID indicator system Printed in USA P/N 32885 MICRO-AMP System The Banner MICRO-AMP System is a family of miniature dc modu- Dimension Drawing, MICRO-AMP Modules lated photoelectric amplifiers and logic modules which offer the same sensing performance as larger, conventional modules. They are the (except MPC3) with RS8 Wiring Socket smallest photoelectric control modules ever built, and can fit easily into tight areas of machines or control panels. Built around the concept of an I/O module, they are the perfect photoelectric control device for use with computers or programmable logic controllers (PLCs). Multiple modules stack neatly on 1-inch (25mm) centers in PVC mounting track, taking only a fraction of the control panel space required by standard photoelectric modules. Model MA3 is a complete dc-powered modulated amplifier designed for use with Banner s SP100 Series of miniature remote sensors. Model MA3-4 is a higher-gain amplifier which is used with Banner s complement of high-performance modulated remote sensors. Build- ing-block style control logic may be added to a system with a selection of MICRO-AMP logic modules. Model MPC3 is similar to amplifier model MA3, except that it is specifically designed for PC board mounting in OEM sensing applica- tions. MICRO-AMP MICRO-AMP modules may be mounted and wired using the optional module pin model RS8 socket (shown in the drawing at right) or they may be configuration mounted directly to a printed circuit board (see Accessories, p. 20).
