ELM 4-040 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The ELM 4-040 is a T1 LED standoff manufactured by Bivar Inc., constructed from black PVC material with a 0.040" (1.02mm) height specification. The component functions as a mechanical standoff for T1 LED assemblies in vertical mounting configurations. This part maintains Active product status with full ROHS3 compliance and MSL Level 1 (unlimited moisture sensitivity). Alternative models may be required due to inventory constraints, application-specific packaging requirements, or regional sourcing considerations.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The ELM 4-1MM qualifies as a parametric equivalent based on the following critical matching parameters: identical LED type (T1), material composition (black PVC), color (black), length specification (0.040" / 1.02mm), series designation (ELM 4), RoHS compliance (ROHS3), and MSL rating (Level 1). Both components are manufactured by Bivar Inc. and maintain Active product status. These shared electrical and mechanical characteristics ensure direct substitutability in applications where the ELM 4-040 is specified.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the ELM 4-040 and ELM 4-1MM maintain Active product status with identical compliance certifications. The ELM 4-1MM is suitable for direct substitution where the ELM 4-040 is currently specified, provided application requirements align with the stated mechanical and electrical parameters. Selection between these parts may be influenced by current inventory availability, lead time requirements, or packaging format preferences (both supplied in bag packaging). No performance differentiation exists between these components based on provided technical specifications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can ELM 4-1MM be used as a direct replacement for ELM 4-040? A: Yes. Both components share identical LED type (T1), material (black PVC), dimensional specifications (0.040" length), color, series designation, and compliance ratings. Direct substitution is supported from an engineering standpoint.

Q: Are there dimensional differences between these parts? A: No. Both components specify identical length dimensions of 0.040" (1.02mm). Physical compatibility in circuit board applications remains consistent between the two part numbers.

Q: What is the RoHS compliance status for both parts? A: Both ELM 4-040 and ELM 4-1MM maintain ROHS3 compliance. No environmental or regulatory restrictions apply to either component for applications requiring RoHS certification.

Q: Do these parts have different moisture sensitivity requirements? A: No. Both components carry MSL Level 1 (Unlimited) classification. Storage and handling procedures are identical for both parts.

Q: Are there any packaging differences between ELM 4-040 and ELM 4-1MM? A: Both components are supplied in bag packaging format. Packaging counts may differ between inventory lots; verify specific quantities required for your application.
