ELM 1-5MM LED Standoff Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The ELM 1-5MM is a T1 3/4 LED standoff manufactured by Bivar Inc., designed for vertical mounting applications. This component is constructed from black PVC material with a 0.200" (5.08mm) length specification. The part maintains Active product status and is ROHS3 compliant, making it suitable for current production environments. Substitute parts are identified when inventory constraints, supply chain disruptions, or manufacturing discontinuation necessitate alternative component selection while maintaining functional and mechanical compatibility.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the ELM 1-5MM are qualified based on the following critical parameters:

Primary Compatibility Criteria:

  • LED form factor: T1 3/4
  • Length tolerance: 0.200" ± 0.001" (5.08mm ± 0.025mm)
  • Color: Black
  • Mounting orientation: Vertical
  • RoHS compliance: ROHS3 Compliant
  • Environmental rating: MSL 1 or equivalent

Two substitute parts meet these criteria: ELM 1-200 (Bivar Inc.) and 0035.9206 (SCHURTER Inc.). Both maintain identical LED specifications and mounting characteristics. The ELM 1-200 represents a parametric equivalent within the same manufacturer series, while 0035.9206 provides cross-manufacturer compatibility from SCHURTER Inc.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

ELM 1-200 Selection Criteria: The ELM 1-200 is the primary parametric equivalent, offering identical specifications to the ELM 1-5MM within the Bivar Inc. ELM 1 series. Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance, MSL 1 rating, and Active product status. Selection of ELM 1-200 is appropriate when maintaining single-manufacturer sourcing is preferred or when existing design validation has been completed for the Bivar product line.

0035.9206 Selection Criteria: The SCHURTER Inc. 0035.9206 provides cross-manufacturer substitution with compatible T1 3/4 LED accommodation and black color specification. The length differential of 0.001" (0.02mm) falls within standard mechanical tolerances for LED standoff applications. This part maintains ROHS3 compliance and Active status. Selection is appropriate when supply availability from Bivar Inc. is constrained or when multi-source qualification is required for supply chain resilience.

All substitute parts maintain compliance certifications and product status equivalent to the main part number.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can ELM 1-200 be used as a direct replacement for ELM 1-5MM?

A: Yes. Both parts are manufactured by Bivar Inc. within the ELM 1 series and share identical specifications for LED type (T1 3/4), length (0.200"/5.08mm), color (black), material (PVC), and compliance ratings (ROHS3, MSL 1). No design modification is required.

Q: What is the mechanical tolerance difference between ELM 1-5MM and 0035.9206?

A: The 0035.9206 has a specified length of 0.201" (5.10mm) compared to 0.200" (5.08mm) for the ELM 1-5MM. This 0.001" (0.025mm) difference is within standard mechanical tolerances for LED standoff applications and does not affect T1 3/4 LED accommodation or vertical mounting functionality.

Q: Are all substitute parts ROHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. Both ELM 1-200 and 0035.9206 maintain ROHS3 compliance, matching the environmental certification of the main part number ELM 1-5MM.

Q: What is the difference between MSL 1 and Not Applicable ratings?

A: MSL 1 (Unlimited) indicates the component has no moisture sensitivity restrictions and requires no special storage or handling. The 0035.9206 is rated "Not Applicable," indicating it does not require moisture sensitivity classification. Both ratings are compatible for standard storage and assembly environments.

Q: Which substitute part offers the highest inventory availability?

A: The 0035.9206 from SCHURTER Inc. has 3031 pieces in stock, compared to 749 pieces for ELM 1-200 and 1081 pieces for the main part ELM 1-5MM.

Q: Can packaging differences affect substitution?

A: All three parts are supplied in Bag packaging. No packaging-related compatibility issues exist between the main part and substitute parts.
