ELM 1-14MM LED Standoff Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The ELM 1-14MM is a T1 3/4 LED standoff manufactured by Bivar Inc., designed for vertical mounting applications. This component features a black PVC construction with a 0.550" (13.97mm) length specification. The part is currently Active in product status and maintains full ROHS3 compliance with unlimited moisture sensitivity rating (MSL 1). Substitute parts are identified when equivalent functional performance is required due to inventory availability, application-specific length requirements, or procurement optimization.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the ELM 1-14MM is determined by the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Parameters:

• LED Type: T1 3/4
• Material: Black PVC
• Mounting Style: Vertical
• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited)
• Manufacturer: Bivar Inc.
• Series: ELM 1

Variable Parameter:

• Length: 0.550" (13.97mm) for ELM 1-14MM; 0.545" (13.84mm) for substitute ELM 1-545

The ELM 1-545 qualifies as a parametric equivalent substitute due to matching all mandatory parameters. The length differential of 0.005" (0.13mm) represents a minor dimensional variation within the same product series and material specification.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

ELM 1-14MM Primary Selection Criteria:

• Specified length requirement of 0.550" (13.97mm)
• Active product status with established supply chain
• ROHS3 compliance for regulated applications
• Unlimited moisture sensitivity rating for general industrial environments

ELM 1-545 Substitute Selection Criteria:

• Length requirement of 0.545" (13.84mm) or tolerance for 0.005" (0.13mm) dimensional variation
• Active product status with higher inventory availability (20,121 pcs vs. 916 pcs)
• Identical ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 rating
• Same series, material, and LED type specifications

Both parts maintain Active product status and full regulatory compliance. Selection between ELM 1-14MM and ELM 1-545 is determined by application-specific length tolerance requirements and inventory availability constraints.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can ELM 1-545 be used in place of ELM 1-14MM?

A: ELM 1-545 is a parametric equivalent substitute when the application tolerates a 0.005" (0.13mm) length reduction. Both parts share identical LED type (T1 3/4), material (Black PVC), mounting style (Vertical), and regulatory compliance (ROHS3, MSL 1). Substitution is valid only when the 0.545" (13.84mm) length specification meets application requirements.

Q: What are the key differences between these parts?

A: The primary difference is length specification. ELM 1-14MM measures 0.550" (13.97mm), while ELM 1-545 measures 0.545" (13.84mm). All other parameters—LED type, material, color, mounting orientation, compliance certifications, and moisture sensitivity—are identical.

Q: Are both parts ROHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. Both ELM 1-14MM and ELM 1-545 are ROHS3 compliant with MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating, suitable for applications requiring regulatory compliance.

Q: What is the inventory status for each part?

A: ELM 1-14MM has 916 pieces in stock. ELM 1-545 has 20,121 pieces in stock. Both are listed as Active products.

Q: Are these parts from the same manufacturer and series?

A: Yes. Both parts are manufactured by Bivar Inc. and belong to the ELM 1 series, ensuring design and functional consistency within the product line.

Q: What packaging format is used for these parts?

A: Both ELM 1-14MM and ELM 1-545 are supplied in Bag packaging.
