The LV-EZ4 from MaxBotix is a compact ultrasonic rangefinder that detects objects from 0 to 254 inches (6.45 metres), with calibrated range output from 6 to 254 inches at 1-inch resolution. Objects closer than 6 inches are reported as 6 inches. The EZ4 features the narrowest beam angle in the LV-MaxSonar-EZ series, making it well suited for applications that require reduced side-lobe sensitivity and tighter detection areas.

Three output formats are provided simultaneously: pulse width (PWM), analog voltage (Vcc/512 per inch), and RS232-compatible serial (9600 baud), giving you flexibility to interface with virtually any microcontroller or data acquisition system.

Key Features

• Range – 6 to 254 inches (15 cm to 6.45 m) with 1-inch resolution
• Narrowest Beam – Tightest beam pattern in the LV-MaxSonar-EZ family for reduced false triggers
• Three Output Modes – PWM, analog voltage, and serial (9600 baud) simultaneously
• Low Power – Operates from 2.5V to 5.5V
• Compact Form Factor – Small, lightweight package for easy integration
• Real-Time Ranging – Continuous distance readings for dynamic applications

Ideal For

• Robotics obstacle detection and navigation
• Proximity sensing in tight spaces
