Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the MB7469-120 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Frequency: 42kHz
• Voltage Rating: 10V ~ 32V
• Beam Angle: 11°
• Operating Temperature Range: -40°C ~ 65°C
• Type: Transmitter, Receiver
• Series: 4-20HR-MaxSonar-WR
• RoHS Compliance: ROHS3 Compliant

The MB7469-121 meets all substitution criteria as it maintains identical electrical specifications, mechanical characteristics, and compliance certifications while offering active product status and improved availability.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The MB7469-121 is the direct substitute for the MB7469-120. Both components are manufactured by MaxBotix Inc. and share identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters. The MB7469-121 carries active product status, ensuring continued availability and supply chain reliability. Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and equivalent export classifications (ECCN: EAR99, HTSUS: 8543.70.4500). Selection of the MB7469-121 eliminates obsolescence risk while maintaining full functional and electrical compatibility.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the MB7469-121 directly replace the MB7469-120 in existing designs?

A: Yes. The MB7469-121 is electrically and mechanically equivalent to the MB7469-120. All critical parameters including frequency, voltage rating, beam angle, operating temperature range, and functional type are identical.

Q: What is the primary advantage of using MB7469-121 over MB7469-120?

A: The MB7469-121 maintains active product status, ensuring ongoing availability and supply chain support. The MB7469-120 is classified as obsolete.

Q: Are there any compliance or certification differences between these parts?

A: No. Both the MB7469-120 and MB7469-121 are ROHS3 compliant and share identical export classifications.

Q: Does packaging differ between these substitute parts?

A: The MB7469-120 packaging is unspecified, while the MB7469-121 is supplied in bulk packaging. This does not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility.

Q: What parameters must remain constant for substitution eligibility?

A: Frequency (42kHz), voltage rating (10V ~ 32V), beam angle (11°), operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 65°C), component type (Transmitter, Receiver), and series designation (4-20HR-MaxSonar-WR) must all remain unchanged for valid substitution.
