Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the MB7489-700 is determined by strict equivalence across the following parameters:

• Frequency: 42kHz (exact match required)
• Voltage Rating: 10 V ~ 32 V (exact match required)
• Beam Angle: 23° (exact match required)
• Operating Temperature Range: -40°C ~ 65°C (exact match required)
• Type Configuration: Transmitter and Receiver (exact match required)
• Series: 4-20HR-MaxSonar-WR (exact match required)
• RoHS Compliance: ROHS3 Compliant (exact match required)

The MB7489-701 meets all substitution criteria as an active product variant within the same series, maintaining identical electrical and mechanical specifications while offering current availability.
