sensors; plus MAXI-
AMP and MICRO-AMP
modules.
The MPS-15 Series power supplies are designed specifically to supply power for the
Banner MICRO-AMP series amplifiers and logic modules. They are constructed on small
PC boards that are track-mountable for compatibility with other track-mounted MICRO-
AMP components. The MPS-15 includes a socket for a MICRO-AMP amplifier or logic
module having current sinking (NPN) output*. The combination of an MPS-15 series
power supply and a MICRO-AMP module makes a complete and compact sensing and/or
control system.
A built-in 5-amp rated SPDT output relay is supplied for easy interfacing to an external
load or circuit. Its action is controlled by the outputs of a MICRO-AMP module which is
plugged into the on-board module socket*. A switch on the PC board selects which module
output (normally open or normally closed) will activate the relay.
Two models are available. Model MPS-15 is for 120V ac operation. Model MPS-15-230
is for 220/240V ac power. Up to three MICRO-AMP modules may be powered by one
MPS -15 or MPS-15-230 power supply. A 4-inch (10cm) long mounting track is included
with each supply. Optional 6-inch (15cm) track model TR100-6 neatly accomodates the
MPS-15 Series PC board plus the PC boards of two additional RS8 sockets to form a
complete three-module MICRO-AMP sensing/logic system. (See Mounting Track infor-
mation, page 3.)
*Do not plug MICRO-AMP modules with PNP (current sourcing) outputs ("P" suffix) into the socket on the MPS-15 or MPS 15-230 power supply.

WARNING
MICRO-AMP ® Systems do NOT include the self-checking redundant circuitry necessary to allow their use in
personnel safety applications. A sensor or amplifier failure or malfunction can result in either an energized or a de-energized output
condition.
Never use this product as a sensing device for personnel protection. Its use as a safety device may create an unsafe condition which
could lead to serious injury or death.
Only MACHINE-GUARD and PERIMETER-GUARD Systems, and other systems so designated, are designed to meet OSHA and
ANSI machine safety standards for point-of-operation guarding devices. No other Banner sensors or controls are designed to meet these standards, and
they must NOT be used as sensing devices for personnel protection.
