Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The ELM 2-660 maintains substitution compatibility with ELM 2-665 and ELM 2-17MM based on the following critical parameters:

Series Compatibility: All substitute parts belong to the ELM 2 series, ensuring identical mechanical mounting interfaces and LED accommodation specifications.

LED Type: All parts support T1 LED packages, maintaining functional equivalence in LED mounting and electrical interface characteristics.

Material & Color: All parts feature black PVC construction, providing identical environmental resistance and mechanical properties.

Length Variation: The substitute parts feature controlled length variations (0.665" for ELM 2-665 and 0.670" for ELM 2-17MM) within the same product series. These minor length differences (0.005" and 0.010" respectively) accommodate application-specific mounting height requirements while preserving all other mechanical and electrical characteristics.

Compliance: All parts carry ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 rating, ensuring identical regulatory and environmental qualification standards.

All three parts carry Active product status, confirming ongoing manufacturing availability and long-term supply continuity through Bivar Inc.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can ELM 2-665 and ELM 2-17MM be used interchangeably with ELM 2-660? A: These parts are mechanically substitutable when application design permits the specified length variations. ELM 2-665 adds 0.005" height, while ELM 2-17MM adds 0.010". All other mechanical and electrical parameters remain identical.

Q: What are the key differences between these LED standoff parts? A: The ELM 2 series parts differ exclusively in length dimension. ELM 2-660 measures 0.660" (16.76mm), ELM 2-665 measures 0.665" (16.89mm), and ELM 2-17MM measures 0.670" (17.02mm). Series, LED type, material, color, and compliance specifications remain constant across all variants.

Q: Are these parts RoHS compliant? A: All three parts carry ROHS3 compliance certification, meeting current environmental and hazardous substance requirements.

Q: What is the packaging format for these parts? A: All ELM 2 series standoffs ship in Bag packaging format suitable for standard component handling and storage.

Q: Do these parts have moisture sensitivity requirements? A: All parts carry MSL 1 (Unlimited) rating, indicating no moisture sensitivity constraints during storage, handling, or manufacturing processes.

Q: What inventory status should I consider for procurement? A: All three parts maintain Active product status with current stock: ELM 2-660 (854 Pcs), ELM 2-665 (882 Pcs), and ELM 2-17MM (1,815 Pcs). Availability supports immediate procurement across all variants.
