Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the ELM 1-9MM are identified based on strict parameter alignment in the following categories:

Primary Substitution Criteria:

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

Length Tolerance Consideration: The ELM 1-9MM specifies a length of 0.350" (8.89mm). Substitute parts may vary within the mechanical envelope of the application. The ELM 3-335 operates at 0.335" (8.51mm), representing a 0.015" (0.38mm) dimensional difference.

All identified substitutes maintain Active product status and full ROHS3 compliance, ensuring regulatory and operational continuity.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

ELM 1-350 Selection: The ELM 1-350 is a direct parametric equivalent to the ELM 1-9MM. Both parts share identical specifications across all critical parameters: T1 3/4 LED type, 0.350" (8.89mm) length, black PVC material, vertical mounting configuration, ROHS3 compliance, and MSL 1 rating. The ELM 1-350 maintains Active product status. This part represents a one-to-one functional substitute with no dimensional or compliance trade-offs.

ELM 3-335 Selection: The ELM 3-335 shares all core electrical and material specifications with the ELM 1-9MM: T1 3/4 LED type, black PVC material, vertical mounting, ROHS3 compliance, and MSL 1 rating. The primary distinction is the length specification of 0.335" (8.51mm) versus 0.350" (8.89mm), representing a 0.015" (0.38mm) reduction. The ELM 3-335 maintains Active product status and full regulatory compliance. Selection of this part requires confirmation that the reduced length accommodates the mechanical constraints of the target application.

Both substitute parts are manufactured by Bivar Inc. and carry identical regulatory certifications to the main part.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: What determines if a part can substitute for the ELM 1-9MM?

A: Substitution is based on exact alignment of the following parameters: LED type (T1 3/4), material (black PVC), mounting style (vertical), color (black), RoHS status (ROHS3 compliant), and moisture sensitivity level (MSL 1). All substitute parts must be manufactured by Bivar Inc. and maintain Active product status.

Q: Can the ELM 1-350 be used as a direct replacement for the ELM 1-9MM?

A: Yes. The ELM 1-350 is a parametric equivalent with identical specifications across all parameters, including the 0.350" (8.89mm) length. No design modifications are required for substitution.

Q: What is the key difference between the ELM 1-9MM and the ELM 3-335?

A: The primary difference is the length specification. The ELM 1-9MM is 0.350" (8.89mm) long, while the ELM 3-335 is 0.335" (8.51mm) long, a difference of 0.015" (0.38mm). All other parameters—LED type, material, mounting style, and compliance ratings—are identical.

Q: Can the ELM 3-335 be used in applications designed for the ELM 1-9MM?

A: The ELM 3-335 can be used only if the mechanical envelope of the application accommodates the reduced length of 0.335" (8.51mm). The shorter standoff height must not compromise circuit board clearance, component spacing, or assembly requirements. Verification of mechanical fit is required before substitution.

Q: Are all substitute parts ROHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. The ELM 1-350 and ELM 3-335 are both ROHS3 compliant, matching the compliance status of the ELM 1-9MM.

Q: What is the Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) for these parts?

A: All three parts—ELM 1-9MM, ELM 1-350, and ELM 3-335—carry an MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited), indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions during storage or handling.

Q: Are these parts available in different packaging options?

A: All three parts are supplied in Bag packaging as specified in the product data.
