ELM 5-620 LED Standoff Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The ELM 5-620 is a T1 LED standoff manufactured by Bivar Inc., designed for vertical mounting applications with a 0.620" (15.75mm) length. This component features a black PVC construction and accommodates 2-lead configurations. The part is currently in active production status with ROHS3 compliance and unlimited moisture sensitivity rating (MSL 1).

Substitute parts are identified when equivalent functional performance can be achieved through alternative models within the same product family while maintaining critical electrical and mechanical compatibility parameters.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The ELM 5-620 has one identified parametric equivalent: ELM 4-600. Substitution eligibility is determined by the following critical parameters:

Matching Parameters:

• LED Type: T1 (identical form factor)
• Mounting Style: Vertical (SR VERT) (identical orientation)
• Material: Black PVC (identical construction)
• Lead Configuration: 2LD (identical electrical connection)
• RoHS Status: ROHS3 Compliant (identical compliance)
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: MSL 1 (identical handling classification)

Varying Parameter:

• Length: 0.620" (15.75mm) for ELM 5-620 versus 0.600" (15.24mm) for ELM 4-600

The ELM 4-600 substitute differs only in length specification by 0.020" (0.51mm). Both parts maintain identical electrical characteristics, material composition, and compliance certifications. Selection between these parts depends on application-specific height requirements.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the ELM 5-620 and ELM 4-600 are active production components manufactured by Bivar Inc. with identical ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 ratings. Selection between these parts should be based on the specific height requirement of the application.

The ELM 5-620 provides 0.620" (15.75mm) standoff height, while the ELM 4-600 provides 0.600" (15.24mm) standoff height. The 0.020" (0.51mm) dimensional difference is the sole distinguishing factor between these otherwise equivalent components. Both parts maintain identical electrical performance, material properties, and regulatory compliance certifications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can ELM 4-600 be used in place of ELM 5-620?

A: The ELM 4-600 is a parametric equivalent with identical electrical and material specifications. The only difference is the standoff length: 0.600" (15.24mm) versus 0.620" (15.75mm). Substitution is valid only when the application tolerates the 0.020" (0.51mm) height reduction.

Q: Are there electrical performance differences between these parts?

A: No. Both parts are T1 LED standoffs with identical lead configurations (2LD), material composition (black PVC), and mounting orientation (vertical). Electrical performance is equivalent.

Q: Do both parts have the same compliance certifications?

A: Yes. Both ELM 5-620 and ELM 4-600 are ROHS3 compliant with MSL 1 (unlimited moisture sensitivity level) ratings. Regulatory compliance is identical.

Q: What is the primary consideration when choosing between these parts?

A: The primary selection criterion is the required standoff height for your specific application. ELM 5-620 is specified for 0.620" (15.75mm) height applications, while ELM 4-600 is specified for 0.600" (15.24mm) height applications.

Q: Are both parts currently available?

A: Yes. Both parts maintain active production status. ELM 5-620 has 839 pieces in stock, and ELM 4-600 has 1058 pieces in stock.
