ELM 2-110 LED Standoff Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The ELM 2-110 is a T1 LED standoff manufactured by Bivar Inc., designed for vertical mounting applications with a 0.110" (2.79mm) length specification. This component is constructed from black PVC material and accommodates 3MM LED configurations with 2-lead design. The part maintains Active product status and is ROHS3 compliant, making it suitable for current production environments.

Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical and mechanical parameters align within the allowed tolerance specifications for this product category, enabling component interchangeability in applications where dimensional and material specifications permit.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute relationships for the ELM 2-110 are established based on the following critical parameters that determine functional and mechanical compatibility:

Primary Substitution Criteria:

• LED Type: T1 (must match)
• Material: PVC (must match)
• Color: Black (must match)
• Configuration: Vertical Mount, 3MM, 2-Lead (must match)
• Mounting Orientation: Standoff design (must match)
• RoHS Compliance: ROHS3 Compliant (must match)
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited) (must match)

Secondary Consideration:

• Length tolerance: Dimensional variation within application-specific allowances

The ELM 4-115 qualifies as a parametric equivalent based on matching LED type, material composition, color specification, mounting configuration, compliance certifications, and moisture sensitivity rating. The length differential of 0.005" (0.13mm) represents a minor dimensional variation within the standoff category.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the ELM 2-110 and ELM 4-115 maintain Active product status with ROHS3 compliance and identical moisture sensitivity ratings, ensuring regulatory alignment for current production applications. Component selection between these parts is determined by specific PCB layout requirements and mechanical clearance specifications.

The ELM 2-110 provides the shorter standoff height at 0.110" (2.79mm), suitable for applications with limited vertical space or tighter component stacking requirements. The ELM 4-115 offers increased standoff height at 0.115" (2.92mm), accommodating applications requiring additional clearance between the LED and mounting surface.

Both parts utilize identical PVC material composition, T1 LED accommodation, and 2-lead vertical mounting configuration, ensuring electrical and mechanical compatibility within their respective dimensional specifications. Selection should be based on documented PCB design requirements and available inventory status.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can ELM 4-115 be used as a direct replacement for ELM 2-110?

A: The ELM 4-115 is a parametric equivalent with matching LED type, material, color, configuration, and compliance certifications. Substitution is permissible when the 0.005" (0.13mm) length increase does not conflict with PCB layout constraints or mechanical clearance specifications.

Q: What is the significance of the length difference between these parts?

A: The ELM 2-110 measures 0.110" (2.79mm) while the ELM 4-115 measures 0.115" (2.92mm). This 0.005" differential affects vertical clearance between the LED component and the mounting surface. Applications with restricted vertical space must use the shorter ELM 2-110, while applications with adequate clearance may accommodate either part.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. Both the ELM 2-110 and ELM 4-115 are ROHS3 compliant, meeting current environmental and regulatory requirements for electronic component manufacturing and assembly.

Q: What does Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 indicate?

A: MSL 1 (Unlimited) indicates that these components have no moisture sensitivity restrictions. They do not require special moisture-controlled storage, handling, or baking procedures prior to assembly.

Q: Are the packaging specifications identical?

A: Yes. Both parts are supplied in Bag packaging format, maintaining consistent handling and storage protocols.

Q: What series designation indicates each part?

A: The ELM 2-110 belongs to the ELM 2 series, while the ELM 4-115 belongs to the ELM 4 series. Series designation reflects internal Bivar Inc. product line organization but does not affect functional equivalency for the specified parameters.
