ELM 4-605 LED Standoff Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The ELM 4-605 is a T1 LED standoff manufactured by Bivar Inc., designed for vertical mounting applications with a 0.605" (15.37mm) length. This component is constructed from black PVC material and accommodates 3mm LED configurations with 2-lead connections. The part maintains Active product status and is ROHS3 compliant, making it suitable for current production environments. Equivalent and substitute parts are identified when dimensional, material, and electrical specifications align within acceptable tolerances for the intended application.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the ELM 4-605 are identified based on the following critical parameters:

Matching Criteria:

• Manufacturer: Bivar Inc.
• Series: ELM 4
• LED Type: T1
• Material: Black PVC
• Lead Configuration: 2LD
• Mounting Style: Vertical
• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant
• MSL Rating: 1 (Unlimited)

Variable Parameter:

• Length: Tolerance range permits substitution within 0.600" to 0.605" (15.24mm to 15.37mm)

The ELM 4-600 qualifies as a parametric equivalent because it maintains identical specifications across all critical parameters. The length differential of 0.013" (0.13mm) falls within acceptable mechanical tolerances for vertical LED standoff applications where precise height matching is not a design-critical constraint.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the ELM 4-605 and ELM 4-600 maintain Active product status with ROHS3 compliance and identical MSL ratings. Selection between these parts is determined by application-specific height requirements. The ELM 4-605 provides 0.605" standoff height, while the ELM 4-600 provides 0.600" standoff height. Both parts are manufactured by Bivar Inc. within the same ELM 4 series and share identical material composition, LED type, and lead configuration. Inventory availability may influence component selection when both parts satisfy dimensional requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can ELM 4-600 be used as a direct replacement for ELM 4-605?

A: The ELM 4-600 is a parametric equivalent with a 0.013" (0.13mm) shorter standoff height. Substitution is valid when application design tolerances accommodate this dimensional variance. Both parts share identical material, LED type, lead configuration, and compliance certifications.

Q: What is the significance of the length difference between these parts?

A: The length parameter defines the vertical standoff distance from the mounting surface to the LED component. The ELM 4-605 provides 0.605" (15.37mm) height, while the ELM 4-600 provides 0.600" (15.24mm) height. Selection depends on PCB layout and clearance requirements specific to the application.

Q: Are both parts ROHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. Both the ELM 4-605 and ELM 4-600 are ROHS3 compliant with MSL rating 1 (Unlimited), making them suitable for regulated manufacturing environments.

Q: What packaging format is used for these parts?

A: Both parts are supplied in Bag packaging format suitable for component handling and storage.

Q: Do these parts share the same base product number?

A: Yes. Both the ELM 4-605 and ELM 4-600 share the base product number ELM4-6, indicating they are variants within the same product family.
