The weather resistant MB7574 SCXL-MaxSonar-WRST7 sensor features millimeter resolution and a 0.6Hz read rate, provides short to long distance detection and range information from 500mm to 5000mm for the nearest detectable target, and includes various output options: pulse-width, analog voltage, and TTL serial. Besides, the sensor comes with an effective self-cleaning capability designed to reduce impact of condensation and frost in closed and high-moisture environments, providing heightened sensitivity over our standard sensors. 

The MB7574 from the SCXL-MaxSonar-WRS line of outdoor sensors is a rugged ultrasonic sensor component module. This sensor comes in a compact and robust PVC housing which meets the IP67 water intrusion standard and matches standard electrical 3/4-inch PVC pipe fittings.

The SCXL-MaxSonar-WRS sensors are factory calibrated to match narrow sensor beam patterns and provide reliable long-range detection zones.

The MB7574 has an internal filter that is a recent biased exponential weighted average. This filter is limited to change a maximum of 1mm per reading. The sensor accurately applies temperature compensation to every reading, using either the integrated temperature sensor or the optional external temperature sensor, HR-MaxTemp.

In addition, the MB7574 offers virtually noise free distance readings through the use of high-output acoustic power combined with continuously variable gain, real-time background automatic calibration, real-time waveform signature analysis, and noise rejection algorithms. This holds true even in the presence of many of the various acoustic or electrical noise sources.
