Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution for the MB7480-620 is determined by strict equivalence across electrical and mechanical parameters. The MB7480-621 qualifies as a direct substitute based on identical specifications in the following critical areas:

  • Frequency: 42kHz (identical)
  • Voltage rating: 10V ~ 32V (identical)
  • Beam angle: 23° (identical)
  • Operating temperature range: -40°C ~ 65°C (identical)
  • Functional type: Transmitter, Receiver (identical)
  • Series designation: 4-20HR-MaxSonar-WR (identical)
  • RoHS compliance: ROHS3 Compliant (identical)

The primary distinction between these parts is product status and packaging configuration, not electrical or mechanical performance.
