ELM 5-200 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The ELM 5-200 is a T1 LED standoff manufactured by Bivar Inc., constructed from black PVC with a 0.200" (5.08mm) length. This component is designed to provide vertical mounting support for T1 LED assemblies. The part carries Active product status and maintains ROHS3 compliance with MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating. Equivalent and substitute parts are identified for procurement flexibility, inventory optimization, and supply chain continuity.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the ELM 5-200 is determined by the following critical parameters:

• LED Type: T1 configuration
• Material Composition: Black PVC construction
• Length Specification: 0.200" (5.08mm)
• Mounting Orientation: Vertical mounting capability
• RoHS Compliance: ROHS3 Compliant status
• Moisture Sensitivity: MSL 1 (Unlimited)

The ELM 2-5MM qualifies as a parametric equivalent based on matching specifications across these dimensions. Both parts share identical LED type, material, length, vertical mounting orientation, RoHS compliance status, and MSL rating. Series designation differences (ELM 5 vs. ELM 2) reflect manufacturing lineage rather than functional divergence in the specified parameters.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the ELM 5-200 and ELM 2-5MM maintain Active product status with ROHS3 compliance and identical MSL ratings. Selection between these parts is based on inventory availability and supply chain considerations. The ELM 5-200 carries 1003 pieces in current inventory, while the ELM 2-5MM provides 2755 pieces, establishing availability as the primary differentiation factor. Both parts satisfy the electrical and mechanical requirements specified for T1 LED vertical standoff applications in PVC construction.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can ELM 2-5MM be used in place of ELM 5-200? A: Yes. Both parts share identical specifications for LED type (T1), material (Black PVC), length (0.200"/5.08mm), vertical mounting orientation, RoHS compliance (ROHS3), and MSL rating (1). The series designation difference does not impact functional compatibility.

Q: What parameters define compatibility between these standoff parts? A: Critical parameters are LED type (T1), material composition (Black PVC), length (0.200"/5.08mm), mounting orientation (vertical), RoHS compliance level (ROHS3), and moisture sensitivity (MSL 1). All specified parameters must match for substitution eligibility.

Q: Are there differences in packaging between ELM 5-200 and ELM 2-5MM? A: Both parts are supplied in bag packaging. Inventory quantities differ, with ELM 5-200 at 1003 pieces and ELM 2-5MM at 2755 pieces available.

Q: What is the RoHS and MSL status of these parts? A: Both ELM 5-200 and ELM 2-5MM are ROHS3 Compliant with MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating, suitable for standard assembly and storage conditions.

Q: Can these standoffs be used for other LED configurations besides T1? A: No. These standoffs are specifically designed for T1 LED applications. Use of these parts with other LED types would not meet the design specifications.
