Product Description

 

The XL‑MaxSonar‑AE1 offers a lower hardware gain and a smaller, narrower detection zone than the MB1360. This makes the XL-MaxSonar-EZ1 a great choice for people detection applications.

The sensor is small in size, yet the high output acoustic power combined with continuously variable gain, real-time background automatic calibration, real-time waveform signature analysis, and real-time noise rejection algorithms results in virtually noise free distance readings for most users. This holds true even in the presence of many of the various acoustic or electrical noise sources. The XL‑MaxSonar‑AE sensor line is factory calibrated to match the sensor beam patterns and provides a long range detection zone.

The MB1310 is a version of this sensor with shorter maximum range.

Component Overview

  • Operational Temperature from -40˚C to +70˚C (-40˚F to +160˚F)
  • Real-time automatic calibration (voltage, humidity, ambient noise)
  • Firmware filtering for better noise tolerance and clutter rejection
  • 200,000+ Hours Mean Time Between Failure
  • Wide and sensitive beam, detects small targets to significant distances
  • Maximum range of 1068 cm (420 inches)
  • Hardware gain of 2000
  • Long range, medium detection zone for small targets
  • Volume Pricing (25 or more units): Contact MaxBotix Inc.

Sensor Noise Tolerance

Sensor Noise
MaxBotix Inc. Recently performed an acoustic noise tolerance test on the LV-MaxSonar-EZ and XL-MaxSonar-EZ products.
The test was setup to evaluate the real world use of the sensors, to allow comparison between MaxBotix Inc., sensors. A noise source was used that produced a pulsating acoustic source of 30KHz to 50KHz sweep at a 60Hz rate. This caused large spikes of noise within the sensor frequency band.
