ELM 5-410 LED Standoff Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The ELM 5-410 is a T1 LED standoff manufactured by Bivar Inc., designed for vertical mounting applications with a 0.410" (10.41mm) length. This component is constructed from black PVC material and accommodates standard T1 LED packages with a 2-lead configuration. The part is currently in active production status.

Alternative models may be required when specific application length requirements differ from the standard 0.410" dimension, when inventory constraints necessitate sourcing from available stock levels, or when dimensional tolerance requirements for mounting precision vary.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts within the ELM 5 series maintain compatibility through shared electrical and mechanical specifications. The primary variable determining substitution eligibility is the standoff length dimension. The ELM 5-410 and ELM 5-390 are functionally equivalent alternatives that differ in physical length to accommodate different mounting heights.

Key Parameters for Substitution:

• Manufacturer: Bivar Inc. (same source)
• Series: ELM 5 (same product family)
• LED Type: T1 (same LED package size)
• Material: PVC Black (same construction)
• Lead Configuration: 2-Lead (same electrical interface)
• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant (equivalent environmental standard)
• Mounting Orientation: Vertical (same application type)

Length variations (0.410" vs. 0.390") permit substitution in applications where the specific standoff height can accommodate the dimensional difference or where design requirements allow for length tolerance.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the ELM 5-410 and ELM 5-390 maintain active production status and full ROHS3 compliance, confirming ongoing availability and conformance to regulatory requirements. Selection between these parts depends on the required mounting height for the specific PCB assembly design.

The ELM 5-410 (0.410" length) applies to applications requiring the longer standoff dimension. The ELM 5-390 (0.390" length) serves applications requiring a shorter standoff with a 0.020" (0.50mm) dimensional reduction. Both parts provide identical electrical performance and environmental protection ratings, with selection driven purely by mechanical fit requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: What is the primary difference between the ELM 5-410 and ELM 5-390? A: The physical length differs by 0.020" (0.50mm), with the ELM 5-410 measuring 0.410" (10.41mm) and the ELM 5-390 measuring 0.390" (9.91mm). All other electrical and mechanical specifications are identical.

Q: Are these parts electrically interchangeable? A: Yes. Both parts feature identical T1 LED packages with 2-lead configurations, identical material composition, and matching electrical interface specifications. Selection between them is determined exclusively by mounting height requirements.

Q: Can I substitute the ELM 5-390 for the ELM 5-410 in an existing design? A: Substitution is viable only if the 0.020" length reduction does not compromise the mechanical or functional requirements of the assembly. The physical mounting height must accommodate the shorter dimension.

Q: What packaging format is supplied for these parts? A: Both the ELM 5-410 and ELM 5-390 are supplied in bag packaging, suitable for standard component handling and inventory management.

Q: Are both parts RoHS compliant? A: Yes. Both the ELM 5-410 and ELM 5-390 meet ROHS3 compliance standards, confirming compatibility with RoHS-restricted material requirements.

Q: What is the moisture sensitivity level for these standoffs? A: Both parts carry a Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) of 1, indicating unlimited shelf life without special moisture control requirements during storage and handling.
