MB7070 XL-MaxSonar-WRA MaxBotix Ultrasonic Sensor
MB7070 XL-MaxSonar-WRA MaxBotix Ultrasonic Sensor
Ranges from 20cm to 765cm with a 10Hz read rate. Analog envelop analog voltage, and RS232 serial. Reports range to the closest target.
The MB7070 XL-MaxSonar-WRA is Maxbotix most popular weather resistant sensor designed for outdoor detection and ranging.
The weather resistant XL-MaxSonar-WR is a rugged ultrasonic sensor component module. This outdoor sensor provides very short to long distance detection and ranging in a compact, robust PVC housing. The ultrasonic sensor meets the IP67 water intrusion standard and matches standard electrical 3/4‑inch PVC pipe fittings.
Housing Option Available: (Specify in order note)
- 3/4" NPS WR Housing
- 3/4" NPS WRC Compact Housing
- Ultra Compact Housing
- Ultra Compact Housing Flush Mount
- 1" NPS Housing
- 1" BSPP Housing
- 30MM 1.5 Housing
High output acoustic power combined with continuously variable gain, real‑time background automatic calibration, real‑time waveform signature analysis, and noise rejection algorithms results in virtually noise free distance readings. This holds true even in the presence of many of the various acoustic or electrical noise sources. The XL‑MaxSonar-WR sensors are factory calibrated to match narrow sensor beam patterns and provide reliable long range detection zones.
MB7060 is the pulse width output version of this sensor.
MB7072 is the stability filter version of this sensor.
MB7076 is an extra-long range version of this sensor.
MB7092 is an advanced filtered version of this sensor.
Models with additional chemical resistance are available
The F-Option design modification provides Maxbotix weather resistant sensors with extra protection against corrosive chemical environments. Ask for the F-Option when ordering.
