ELM 2-695 LED Standoff Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The ELM 2-695 is a T1 LED standoff manufactured by Bivar Inc., designed for vertical mounting applications with a 0.695" (17.65mm) length. This component is an active product with full ROHS3 compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity rating. Substitute parts are identified based on matching electrical specifications, mechanical compatibility within the ELM 2 series, and identical material and color characteristics. Alternative models become necessary when the primary part reaches inventory constraints or when design flexibility permits dimensional variation within acceptable tolerances.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the ELM 2-695 is determined by strict adherence to the following parameters:

Primary Substitution Criteria:

• LED Type: Must be T1
• Series: Must be ELM 2
• Material: Must be PVC
• Color: Must be Black
• RoHS Status: Must be ROHS3 Compliant
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: Must be 1 (Unlimited)
• Product Status: Must be Active

Secondary Consideration:

• Length: Substitute parts may vary within the ELM 2 series design envelope. The ELM 2-695 accepts substitutes with lengths of 0.670" (17.02mm) and 0.665" (16.89mm), representing dimensional variations of ±0.030" and ±0.015" respectively from the primary specification.

All identified substitutes meet the complete electrical and compliance requirements of the primary part. Dimensional variation is permissible based on the mechanical design tolerance of the ELM 2 series mounting interface.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

ELM 2-695 Primary Selection: Use when exact 0.695" (17.65mm) length specification is required by design documentation or PCB layout constraints.

ELM 2-17MM Alternative: Suitable for applications where 0.670" (17.02mm) length accommodates design tolerance. This substitute offers the highest current inventory availability at 1815 pieces.

ELM 2-665 Alternative: Suitable for applications where 0.665" (16.89mm) length accommodates design tolerance. This substitute provides the closest dimensional proximity to the primary part at ±0.015" variation.

All three parts maintain identical electrical performance, compliance certifications, and environmental ratings. Selection between alternatives is based solely on mechanical length requirements and inventory availability. All parts are active products with confirmed ROHS3 compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity rating.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can ELM 2-17MM be used in place of ELM 2-695?

A: Yes, provided the application design permits a length variation of 0.025" (0.635mm) shorter than the primary specification. Both parts are T1 LED standoffs within the ELM 2 series with identical material, color, and compliance characteristics.

Q: What is the maximum allowable length variation between substitute parts?

A: The ELM 2 series substitutes identified for ELM 2-695 range from 0.665" to 0.695" in length, representing a total variation band of 0.030" (0.76mm). Selection depends on specific application mechanical tolerance.

Q: Are all substitute parts ROHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. ELM 2-695, ELM 2-17MM, and ELM 2-665 are all ROHS3 compliant with MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited).

Q: What packaging format is used for these parts?

A: All parts in this substitution group are supplied in Bag packaging format.

Q: Can these parts be intermixed in the same assembly?

A: Intermixing is permissible only if the application design accommodates the length variations present across the substitute group. Verify PCB layout and mechanical clearances before mixing part numbers in production.

Q: Which substitute offers the best inventory availability?

A: ELM 2-17MM currently maintains the highest inventory level at 1815 pieces new original stock.
