ELM 2-475 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The ELM 2-475 is a T1 LED Standoff in Black PVC measuring 0.475" (12.07mm) in length, manufactured by Bivar Inc. This component is currently Active in product status and ROHS3 Compliant, with unlimited moisture sensitivity rating (MSL 1). The identification of substitute parts ensures continuity of supply and provides alternatives for procurement and design flexibility when the primary part becomes unavailable or when inventory constraints necessitate functional equivalents.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The ELM 5-485 qualifies as a parametric equivalent substitute based on the following matching criteria:

Critical Parameters for Substitution:

• LED Type: T1 (identical)
• Material: PVC (identical)
• Color: Black (identical)
• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant (identical)
• MSL Rating: 1 (Unlimited) (identical)
• Manufacturer: Bivar Inc. (identical source)

Dimensional Consideration: The substitute part (ELM 5-485) has a length of 0.485" (12.32mm) compared to the primary part's 0.475" (12.07mm), representing a 0.010" (0.25mm) increase. This dimensional variance falls within the tolerance range for T1 LED standoff applications and does not affect functional compatibility.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the ELM 2-475 and ELM 5-485 maintain Active product status with identical RoHS3 Compliance and MSL 1 ratings. The substitute part is suitable for applications requiring T1 LED standoff functionality with Black PVC construction. Selection between primary and substitute parts should be based on dimensional requirements specific to the application and current inventory availability. Both parts meet equivalent regulatory and environmental compliance standards.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Are the ELM 2-475 and ELM 5-485 functionally interchangeable? A: Both parts share identical LED type (T1), color (Black), material (PVC), RoHS status, and MSL ratings. The ELM 5-485 has a length of 0.485" compared to the ELM 2-475 at 0.475", a difference of 0.010". Interchangeability depends on application-specific dimensional constraints.

Q: What is the manufacturing compliance status for both parts? A: Both the ELM 2-475 and ELM 5-485 are ROHS3 Compliant with MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited moisture sensitivity level).

Q: Can the ELM 5-485 replace the ELM 2-475 in existing designs? A: Substitution is valid from an electrical and material perspective. The dimensional variance of 0.010" (0.25mm) in length must be evaluated against specific application requirements and mechanical constraints.

Q: Are both parts sourced from the same manufacturer? A: Yes, both parts are manufactured by Bivar Inc. and represent different series designations (ELM 2 and ELM 5) within the same product family.

Q: What inventory status applies to these parts? A: The ELM 2-475 has 914 pieces in stock. The ELM 5-485 has 10,054 pieces in stock, providing a higher inventory reserve as a substitute source.
