Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the MB7469-100 is based on strict electrical and mechanical parameter matching within the 4-20HR-MaxSonar-WR series. The following parameters determine substitution eligibility:

• Frequency: 42kHz (must match exactly)
• Voltage Rating: 10V ~ 32V (must match exactly)
• Beam Angle: 11° (must match exactly)
• Operating Temperature Range: -40°C ~ 65°C (TA) (must match exactly)
• Type: Transmitter, Receiver (must match exactly)
• Base Product Number: MB7469 (must match exactly)
• RoHS Compliance: ROHS3 Compliant (must match exactly)

The MB7469-101 meets all substitution criteria as an active product variant within the same series, differing only in packaging configuration and product status.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The MB7469-101 is the direct substitute for the MB7469-100. Both components share identical electrical specifications, mechanical parameters, and regulatory compliance status. The MB7469-101 is currently in active production status, whereas the MB7469-100 is obsolete. Selection of the MB7469-101 ensures continued access to functionally equivalent components with current manufacturing support. Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and identical operational characteristics across the specified voltage and temperature ranges.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the MB7469-101 replace the MB7469-100 in existing designs?

A: Yes. The MB7469-101 is electrically and mechanically equivalent to the MB7469-100. All critical parameters—frequency, voltage rating, beam angle, operating temperature range, and functional type—are identical. The primary difference is product status: MB7469-101 is active production while MB7469-100 is obsolete.

Q: What is the difference between MB7469-100 and MB7469-101?

A: The components are functionally identical. The difference lies in packaging configuration (MB7469-101 is supplied in Bulk packaging) and product lifecycle status (MB7469-101 is active, MB7469-100 is obsolete).

Q: Are there any compliance or certification differences?

A: No. Both parts maintain identical RoHS3 compliance status and share the same ECCN and HTSUS classifications.

Q: Why is the MB7469-100 listed as obsolete?

A: Product obsolescence typically reflects manufacturing lifecycle decisions by MaxBotix Inc. The MB7469-101 remains in active production and serves as the current equivalent for this sensor specification.

Q: Can I use these parts interchangeably in new designs?

A: Yes. For new designs, the MB7469-101 is the appropriate selection as it is actively manufactured and functionally equivalent to the obsolete MB7469-100.
