ELM 4-335 LED Standoff Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The ELM 4-335 is a T1 LED standoff manufactured by Bivar Inc., featuring a black PVC construction with a 0.335" (8.51mm) vertical mounting height. This component is designed for vertical LED mounting applications requiring precise standoff positioning. The part maintains Active product status and is RoHS3 compliant, ensuring compliance with current environmental regulations. Substitute parts are identified based on matching core functional parameters: T1 LED compatibility, black PVC material composition, vertical mounting orientation, and equivalent electrical performance characteristics.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the ELM 4-335 are qualified based on the following critical parameters that determine functional interchangeability:

Matching Parameters:

• LED Type: T1 (all substitutes maintain T1 LED compatibility)
• Material: Black PVC (consistent across all parts)
• Mounting Orientation: Vertical (all parts feature vertical mounting)
• Color: Black (uniform across all qualified substitutes)
• RoHS Compliance: ROHS3 Compliant (all parts meet environmental standards)
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited) (all parts share identical MSL rating)
• Manufacturer: Bivar Inc. (all parts from same manufacturer)

Variable Parameter:

• Length: The ELM 4-335 operates at 0.335" (8.51mm). Substitute parts vary in length specification, ranging from 0.320" (8.13mm) to 0.350" (8.89mm). These length variations fall within the tolerance range for vertical LED standoff applications where precise height positioning is required.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All three parts—ELM 4-335, ELM 2-320, and ELM 2-350—maintain Active product status and full RoHS3 compliance. Selection between these parts is determined by the specific vertical mounting height requirement of the application circuit board design.

ELM 4-335 (0.335" / 8.51mm): Primary specification for applications requiring this exact standoff height.

ELM 2-320 (0.320" / 8.13mm): Suitable for applications where a 0.015" (0.38mm) shorter standoff height is acceptable. This part carries the highest inventory availability at 26,182 pieces.

ELM 2-350 (0.350" / 8.89mm): Suitable for applications where a 0.015" (0.38mm) taller standoff height is acceptable. This part maintains 3,507 pieces in inventory.

All parts share identical electrical performance characteristics, material composition, and environmental compliance ratings. Selection is based solely on mechanical height specification compatibility with the target PCB assembly design.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: What determines whether ELM 2-320 or ELM 2-350 can substitute for ELM 4-335?

A: Substitution is determined by the mechanical height tolerance of the application. The ELM 2-320 is 0.015" shorter, while the ELM 2-350 is 0.015" taller than the ELM 4-335. Both maintain identical T1 LED compatibility, black PVC material, vertical mounting orientation, and RoHS3 compliance. The application circuit board design must accommodate the height variation.

Q: Are all three parts electrically equivalent?

A: Yes. All three parts are T1 LED standoffs with identical electrical performance characteristics. Differences are limited to mechanical height specification only.

Q: Do all parts meet the same environmental compliance standards?

A: Yes. ELM 4-335, ELM 2-320, and ELM 2-350 are all RoHS3 compliant with Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited), ensuring equivalent environmental and reliability performance.

Q: What is the inventory status of each part?

A: ELM 4-335 has 816 pieces in stock, ELM 2-320 has 26,182 pieces in stock, and ELM 2-350 has 3,507 pieces in stock. All parts are new original stock.

Q: Can these parts be used interchangeably in the same application?

A: Interchangeability depends on the mechanical height tolerance of the specific application. If the circuit board design accommodates the ±0.015" height variation, these parts are functionally interchangeable. If the design requires exact height specification, only the matching part number should be used.

Q: Are there any differences in packaging between these parts?

A: No. All three parts are supplied in bag packaging.
