Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the ELM 1-560 is determined by the following critical parameters:

Mandatory Matching Criteria:

• Manufacturer: Bivar Inc.
• Series: ELM 1
• LED Type: T1 3/4
• Material: PVC
• Color: Black
• Mounting Style: Vertical
• RoHS Compliance: ROHS3 Compliant
• MSL Rating: 1 (Unlimited)

Allowable Variation:

• Length tolerance within the ELM 1 series specification range

The ELM 1-545 qualifies as a parametric equivalent substitute. Both parts share identical electrical characteristics, material composition, compliance certifications, and mounting orientation. The length differential (0.560" versus 0.545") represents a 0.015" (0.38mm) variation within acceptable mechanical tolerances for this product category.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the ELM 1-560 and ELM 1-545 maintain Active product status with full ROHS3 compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity rating. Selection between these parts should be based on specific application length requirements and PCB layout constraints.

The ELM 1-560 provides the longer standoff height at 0.560" (14.22mm), suitable for applications requiring maximum vertical clearance. The ELM 1-545 offers a reduced height of 0.545" (13.84mm), accommodating space-constrained designs while maintaining identical electrical and material specifications.

Both parts are manufactured by Bivar Inc. within the same ELM 1 series and carry equivalent compliance certifications. Inventory availability should be evaluated based on production timeline requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can ELM 1-545 be used as a direct replacement for ELM 1-560?

A: The ELM 1-545 is a parametric equivalent within the ELM 1 series. Both parts share identical LED type (T1 3/4), material (PVC), color (Black), mounting style (Vertical), and compliance ratings (ROHS3). The length difference of 0.015" (0.38mm) must be evaluated against specific application clearance and spacing requirements.

Q: What determines substitution eligibility for ELM 1 series standoffs?

A: Substitution is based on matching manufacturer (Bivar Inc.), series designation (ELM 1), LED type (T1 3/4), material (PVC), color (Black), mounting orientation (Vertical), and compliance certifications (ROHS3, MSL 1). Length variations within the series are allowable when application geometry permits.

Q: Are both parts available in the same packaging format?

A: Both ELM 1-560 and ELM 1-545 are supplied in Bag packaging, ensuring consistent handling and storage requirements.

Q: Do these parts have different moisture sensitivity requirements?

A: No. Both parts carry MSL Rating 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions for storage, handling, or processing.

Q: What is the inventory status for each part?

A: ELM 1-560 has 952 pieces in stock. ELM 1-545 has 20,121 pieces in stock. Availability should be confirmed based on production scheduling needs.
