ELM 4-7MM T1 LED Standoff - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The ELM 4-7MM is an active T1 LED standoff component manufactured by Bivar Inc., featuring a black PVC construction with 0.280" (7.11mm) length specification. This component is designed for vertical mount applications with 3MM LED compatibility and 2 lead configuration. Alternative equivalent parts are available for applications requiring different material compositions or dimensional tolerances within the T1 LED standoff category.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Equivalent substitution for the ELM 4-7MM is determined by three critical parameters: LED type (T1), lead configuration (2LD), and color (Black). All substitute parts identified maintain these core specifications. Secondary parameters allowing substitution variation include material composition (PVC or Nylon) and length tolerance within the 0.280"-0.285" range. All substitutes maintain identical RoHS3 compliance, MSL Rating of 1, and active product status.

The following parts satisfy these substitution criteria:

• ELM 2-285: T1 LED standoff, PVC material, 0.285" length
• H-101C: T1 LED standoff, Nylon material, 0.285" length
• H-101C-1: T1 LED standoff, Nylon material, 0.285" length

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All listed substitutes maintain active product status and ROHS3 compliance, supporting continued design implementation across component generations. Material selection between PVC (ELM series) and Nylon (H-101 series) should be based on application thermal and mechanical requirements. The 0.005" (0.13mm) length differential between ELM 4-7MM and substitute parts represents a minor tolerance variation appropriate for standard vertical mount LED applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can H-101C and H-101C-1 replace ELM 4-7MM in vertical mount applications? A: Yes. Both parts maintain T1 LED compatibility, identical 2-lead configuration, and black color specification. Material composition differs (Nylon vs. PVC), and length tolerance is 0.005" greater. Application requirements determine suitability.

Q: What is the primary difference between ELM 2-285 and H-101C substitutes? A: Both maintain identical electrical and mechanical parameters. The primary distinction is material composition: ELM 2-285 uses PVC; H-101C and H-101C-1 use Nylon. Length specification is 0.285" for all three parts.

Q: Are H-101C and H-101C-1 interchangeable? A: Yes. Both parts share identical specifications for LED type, material, length, color, RoHS status, and MSL rating. Series designation (H101C) is common to both part numbers.

Q: Does the 0.005" length difference between ELM 4-7MM and substitute parts affect compatibility? A: The length tolerance of 0.005" (0.13mm) is within standard mechanical tolerances for T1 LED standoff applications and does not alter electrical or mechanical compatibility in typical vertical mount configurations.

Q: Are all substitute parts ROHS3 compliant? A: Yes. ELM 4-7MM and all identified substitutes (ELM 2-285, H-101C, H-101C-1) maintain ROHS3 compliance and MSL Rating 1 (unlimited moisture sensitivity level).
