This Maxbotix MB1240 XL-MaxSonar-EZ4 High-Performance Ultrasonic Sensor Module is for indoor use only.
Features of the MB1240, XL-MaxSonar-EZ4, include centimeter resolution, has the highest noise tolerance and the narrowest beamwidth of any sensor in the XL‑MaxSonar‑EZ sensor line, short to long-distance detection, range information from 20cm to 765cm, a 10Hz read rate, and various output options: pulse-width, analog voltage, and RS232 serial.
The MB1240 is a great choice for applications where only larger objects need to be detected.
The MB1240 from the XL‑MaxSonar‑EZ line of sensors is a very small, less than one cubic inch, ultrasonic sensor component module. This sensor comes with mounting holes provided on the circuit board for easy installation in nearly all applications.
