Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the MB7469-700 is based on electrical and mechanical parameter alignment within the MaxBotix ultrasonic sensor product line. The MB7469-701 qualifies as a direct substitute because it maintains identical specifications across all critical parameters: 42kHz operating frequency, 10 V ~ 32 V voltage rating, 23° beam angle, -40°C ~ 65°C operating temperature range, and ROHS3 compliance. Both parts belong to the same 4-20HR-MaxSonar-WR series and share the same base product number (MB7469), confirming functional equivalence.

The primary distinction between these parts is product status: MB7469-700 is obsolete while MB7469-701 is active, making MB7469-701 the recommended selection for new designs and ongoing procurement.
