Information About MR52-S3

The MR52-S3 is part of Mercury Security’s Series 3 sub-controller lineup, engineered to extend door control capability within enterprise access systems. Designed as a direct replacement for the MR52 Series 2, it retains the same footprint and interface, enabling straightforward upgrades without reprogramming. The unit supports multiple reader technologies—including Wiegand, F/2F, and OSDP with Secure Channel—and provides additional auxiliary inputs and outputs for flexible device integration. Typical applications include two-door access control, secure facility management, and system expansion where encrypted communication and high I/O density are required.

Key Features:

  • Two-Door Sub-Controller: Supports 2 readers and complete door I/O for controlled entry points.
  • Eight Standard Inputs: Enables monitoring of door position switches, REX devices, and auxiliary points.
  • Six Form C Relays: Provides 5A-rated relay outputs for locks, alarms, or automation control.
  • RS-485 Connectivity: Ensures secure, encrypted communication with Mercury EP controllers.
  • Multi-Technology Reader Support: Compatible with Wiegand, F/2F, and OSDP Secure Channel readers.
  • Series 2 Footprint Match: Directly replaces the MR52 Series 2 without wiring or software changes.
  • Integrated Cryptographic Module: Protects encryption keys and enhances system data security.

The MR52-S3 delivers the reliability and precision required for scalable, secure access control expansion.
