ELM 1-795 LED Standoff Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The ELM 1-795 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 0.795" (20.19mm) length specification. The part maintains Active product status and full ROHS3 compliance, ensuring suitability for current design implementations. Substitute parts may be required due to inventory availability, design tolerance adjustments, or specific application clearance requirements where vertical standoff height variations are acceptable within the allowed parameter range.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the ELM 1-795 is strictly limited to parts within the ELM 1 series that maintain identical specifications for LED type (T1 3/4), material composition (PVC), color (Black), and packaging format (Bag). The ELM 1-820 qualifies as a parametric equivalent based on these core parameters. The primary distinction between these parts is the length specification: the ELM 1-795 measures 0.795" (20.19mm), while the ELM 1-820 measures 0.820" (20.83mm). This 0.025" (0.64mm) length differential remains within acceptable mechanical tolerances for applications where vertical standoff height flexibility is permitted. Both parts maintain identical electrical characteristics, compliance certifications (ROHS3), and moisture sensitivity ratings (MSL 1).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both ELM 1-795 and ELM 1-820 maintain Active product status with full ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 moisture sensitivity ratings, confirming their suitability for current electronic assembly applications. Selection between these parts depends entirely on design clearance requirements and mechanical tolerance specifications for vertical standoff height. The ELM 1-795 provides the shorter standoff length at 0.795" (20.19mm), while the ELM 1-820 provides the extended length at 0.820" (20.83mm). Both parts are suitable for equivalent component substitution when mechanical fit permits the specified length variation. Component selection should be determined by the specific PCB clearance and mounting geometry requirements of the target application.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can ELM 1-820 be used as a direct replacement for ELM 1-795?

A: Yes, the ELM 1-820 qualifies as a parametric equivalent based on matching LED type (T1 3/4), material (PVC), color (Black), and compliance certifications. The 0.025" (0.64mm) length difference between the parts must be evaluated against specific mechanical fit requirements of your application.

Q: What is the key difference between these substitute parts?

A: The primary distinguishing parameter is the vertical standoff length. ELM 1-795 measures 0.795" (20.19mm), while ELM 1-820 measures 0.820" (20.83mm). All other electrical, material, and compliance parameters remain identical.

Q: Are there any compliance or certification differences between ELM 1-795 and ELM 1-820?

A: No. Both parts maintain identical ROHS3 compliance status, MSL 1 moisture sensitivity ratings, ECCN EAR99 classification, and HTSUS coding. Compliance and regulatory requirements present no substitution barriers.

Q: Does packaging differ between these parts?

A: No. Both the ELM 1-795 and ELM 1-820 are supplied in Bag packaging format with identical handling and storage requirements.

Q: How should I determine which standoff length is suitable for my design?

A: Evaluate the available vertical clearance in your PCB mounting location. If the design permits the additional 0.025" (0.64mm) height of the ELM 1-820, both parts are functionally interchangeable. If available space is constrained, the ELM 1-795 shorter length is required.
