Equivalent & Substitute Parts for 455-230 LED Mounting Pad

Part Overview

The 455-230 is a T1/T1 3/4 LED standoff mounting pad manufactured by Bivar Inc. This component is a white nylon mounting pad with a length of 0.230" (5.84mm), designed to provide mechanical support and electrical isolation for LED assemblies. The part is currently in Active product status with full RoHS3 compliance. Substitute parts are identified when equivalent functional performance can be achieved within the allowed parameter tolerances for this product category, particularly when inventory availability or lead time considerations necessitate alternative sourcing.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The 455-220 is identified as a parametric equivalent to the 455-230 based on the following substitution criteria:

Common Parameters (Substitution Basis):

• Manufacturer: Bivar Inc.
• Series: 455
• LED Type Compatibility: T1, T1 3/4
• Material: Nylon
• Color: White
• Packaging: Bag
• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited)
• Product Status: Active

Dimensional Variance: The primary difference between these parts is the length specification. The 455-230 has a length of 0.230" (5.84mm), while the 455-220 has a length of 0.220" (5.59mm). This 0.010" (0.25mm) difference represents a dimensional tolerance within the mechanical design envelope for LED standoff applications in this series.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the 455-230 and 455-220 are Active status products with identical RoHS3 compliance and MSL ratings. Selection between these parts should be based on the specific mechanical height requirement of the application. The 455-230 provides a standoff height of 0.230" (5.84mm), while the 455-220 provides 0.220" (5.59mm). The 0.010" (0.25mm) dimensional difference must be evaluated against the PCB layout and LED assembly clearance specifications. Both parts maintain identical electrical isolation and mechanical support characteristics for T1 and T1 3/4 LED packages. Inventory availability of the 455-220 (1208 Pcs) exceeds that of the 455-230 (828 Pcs), which may influence procurement decisions when lead time is a consideration.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 455-220 be used in place of the 455-230?

A: The 455-220 can be used as a substitute only if the application design accommodates the 0.010" (0.25mm) reduction in standoff height. Both parts are identical in material, color, LED type compatibility, and compliance certifications. The dimensional difference must be evaluated against PCB clearance and assembly requirements.

Q: Are there any electrical differences between these parts?

A: No. Both parts are nylon mounting pads with identical electrical isolation properties. The difference is purely mechanical in terms of standoff height.

Q: Do both parts support the same LED types?

A: Yes. Both the 455-230 and 455-220 are designed for T1 and T1 3/4 LED packages.

Q: What is the significance of the RoHS3 compliance rating?

A: RoHS3 compliance indicates that both parts meet the Restriction of Hazardous Substances Directive requirements and are suitable for use in regulated applications requiring environmental compliance.

Q: Are these parts available in different packaging options?

A: Both parts are supplied in Bag packaging as specified. No alternative packaging formats are provided in the available product data.

Q: What does Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 mean?

A: MSL 1 (Unlimited) indicates that these components have no moisture sensitivity restrictions and do not require special storage or handling conditions related to moisture exposure.
