ELM 4-460 LED Standoff Equivalent and Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The ELM 4-460 is a T1 LED standoff manufactured by Bivar Inc., designed for vertical mounting applications. This component features a 0.460" (11.68mm) length with black PVC material construction and dual lead (2LD) configuration. The part maintains active product status and full ROHS3 compliance. Equivalent substitute parts are necessary when specific dimensional requirements, inventory availability, or application constraints require alternative configurations within the same product series.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution for the ELM 4-460 is limited to components within the ELM 4 series that maintain identical or functionally equivalent specifications across all critical parameters. The substitute part ELM 4-440 shares the following allowable variance:

Identical Parameters: Manufacturer (Bivar Inc.), Series (ELM 4), LED Type (T1), Color (Black), Material (PVC), Lead Configuration (2LD), Mounting Style (SR VERT), Product Status (Active), RoHS Status (ROHS3 Compliant), and Moisture Sensitivity Level (1 Unlimited).

Allowable Variation: Length dimension—ELM 4-440 specifies 0.440" (11.18mm) versus the ELM 4-460 reference length of 0.460" (11.68mm). This 0.020" (0.50mm) dimensional difference remains within the mechanical tolerance constraints of the ELM 4 series platform and does not affect electrical performance or lead configuration.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the ELM 4-460 and ELM 4-440 maintain active product status with full ROHS3 compliance and identical electrical and mechanical certifications. The ELM 4-440 serves as a functional substitute when dimensional constraints allow for the shorter 0.440" (11.18mm) profile. Selection between these parts should be determined by mechanical assembly clearance requirements and printed circuit board layout specifications. Both components carry MSL Level 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity classification, indicating equivalent handling and storage requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: What is the primary difference between ELM 4-460 and ELM 4-440? A: The parts differ only in length dimension—ELM 4-460 measures 0.460" (11.68mm) while ELM 4-440 measures 0.440" (11.18mm). All other electrical and mechanical specifications remain identical.

Q: Can ELM 4-440 directly replace ELM 4-460 in my assembly? A: Direct substitution is possible only if your PCB layout and mechanical clearance accommodate the 0.020" (0.50mm) shorter profile of the ELM 4-440.

Q: Are both parts ROHS3 compliant? A: Yes. Both ELM 4-460 and ELM 4-440 carry full ROHS3 compliance and identical moisture sensitivity classification (MSL Level 1, Unlimited).

Q: What is the base product for this series? A: Both parts reference base product number ELM4-4, indicating they belong to the same standardized platform within the ELM 4 series.

Q: Does the length difference affect electrical performance? A: No. Both parts utilize identical T1 LED configuration and dual-lead design. The length variation is purely mechanical and does not impact electrical characteristics.

Q: What certifications apply to both parts? A: Both parts carry ROHS3 compliance, ECCN EAR99 classification, and HTSUS code 3926.90.9985. Moisture Sensitivity Level is 1 (Unlimited) for both variants.
