ELM 3-295 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The ELM 3-295 is a T1 3/4 LED standoff manufactured by Bivar Inc., constructed from black PVC material with a length of 0.295" (7.49mm). This component is classified as an active product with ROHS3 compliance and MSL Level 1 rating. Equivalent and substitute parts are necessary to accommodate design variations, availability constraints, and assembly tolerance requirements where alternative standoff heights may be suitable for the application.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the ELM 3-295 is determined by the following critical parameters: LED type (T1 3/4), material composition (black PVC), manufacturer (Bivar Inc.), and acceptable length tolerance. The substitute parts ELM 3-285, ELM 3-300, and ELM 1-300 maintain identical LED type and material specifications while varying in length dimensions. Length variations range from 0.285" (7.24mm) to 0.300" (7.62mm), representing a maximum tolerance band of ±0.015" around the nominal ELM 3-295 dimension. All substitutes retain ROHS3 compliance and MSL Level 1 status, ensuring regulatory and environmental compatibility.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All listed substitute parts maintain active product status and ROHS3 compliance, confirming their suitability for continued design and production use. Selection among ELM 3-295, ELM 3-285, ELM 3-300, and ELM 1-300 depends on specific length requirements within the identified tolerance band. ELM 3-300 and ELM 1-300 offer identical length specifications of 0.300" (7.62mm) with notably higher inventory availability (9596 and 8801 units respectively) compared to the primary part. ELM 3-285 provides the shortest option at 0.285" (7.24mm) with substantial inventory (4749 units). Parts within the ELM 3 series share consistent base product numbering architecture. Cross-series substitution (ELM 3 to ELM 1) is permissible where length compatibility aligns with design constraints.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What parameters determine if a part is a valid substitute for ELM 3-295? Valid substitutes must maintain T1 3/4 LED type, black PVC material composition, ROHS3 compliance, and MSL Level 1 rating. Length variation is the primary design parameter that differentiates substitutes, with acceptable values ranging from 0.285" to 0.300".

Can ELM 1-300 be used in place of ELM 3-295? ELM 1-300 matches all critical parameters: T1 3/4 LED type, black PVC material, ROHS3 compliance, and MSL Level 1. The length specification of 0.300" (7.62mm) differs by +0.005" from the nominal ELM 3-295 dimension. Substitution viability depends on application tolerance requirements.

What is the maximum length variation among substitute parts? The length range spans from 0.285" (7.24mm) to 0.300" (7.62mm), establishing a maximum tolerance band of ±0.015" across all listed substitutes.

Are there inventory differences between substitutes? Yes. ELM 3-300 maintains 9596 units in stock, ELM 1-300 provides 8801 units, ELM 3-285 has 4749 units, and ELM 3-295 has 729 units available.

Do all substitutes meet RoHS and MSL requirements? All listed parts—ELM 3-295, ELM 3-285, ELM 3-300, and ELM 1-300—are ROHS3 compliant with MSL Level 1 (Unlimited) rating.
