ELM 5-670 LED Standoff Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The ELM 5-670 is a T1 LED standoff manufactured by Bivar Inc., designed for vertical mounting applications with a 0.670" (17.02mm) length. This component is constructed from black PVC material and accommodates 3MM LED packages with 2-lead configurations. The part maintains Active product status and is ROHS3 compliant, making it suitable for current production environments.

Substitute parts are identified when equivalent electrical and mechanical parameters align with the main part specifications, enabling direct replacement in applications where the original part number becomes unavailable or inventory constraints require alternative sourcing.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the ELM 5-670 is determined by strict alignment of the following parameters:

Critical Matching Parameters:

• LED Type: T1
• Material: Black PVC
• LED Package Size: 3MM
• Lead Configuration: 2-Lead
• Mounting Orientation: Vertical
• RoHS Compliance: ROHS3 Compliant
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited)

Length Tolerance Consideration: The ELM 5-670 specifies a length of 0.670" (17.02mm). Substitute parts are grouped based on whether they maintain this exact length specification or operate within acceptable mechanical tolerance ranges for the intended application.

Two substitute parts are identified: ELM 2-17MM and ELM 2-665. Both are manufactured by Bivar Inc. and share the core electrical and mechanical characteristics required for substitution. The ELM 2-17MM maintains identical length specifications (0.670"/17.02mm), while the ELM 2-665 operates at a marginally reduced length of 0.665" (16.89mm), representing a 0.005" (0.13mm) dimensional variance.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

ELM 2-17MM Selection Criteria: The ELM 2-17MM provides direct parametric equivalence to the ELM 5-670 across all specified dimensions and electrical characteristics. This part maintains identical length specifications (0.670"/17.02mm), ensuring mechanical compatibility in applications with strict height constraints. Both parts are ROHS3 compliant and carry Active product status, supporting continued availability and regulatory compliance. Current inventory levels for ELM 2-17MM are 1815 pieces, providing robust supply availability.

ELM 2-665 Selection Criteria: The ELM 2-665 operates as a parametric equivalent with a minor dimensional variance of 0.005" (0.13mm) in length, measuring 0.665" (16.89mm) compared to the ELM 5-670 specification of 0.670" (17.02mm). This part maintains all other critical parameters including LED type, material composition, package size, lead configuration, and compliance certifications. Selection of ELM 2-665 is appropriate for applications where this dimensional tolerance is acceptable within the mechanical design constraints. Current inventory levels for ELM 2-665 are 882 pieces.

Both substitute parts are manufactured by Bivar Inc., ensuring consistency in design philosophy and manufacturing standards. All three parts carry ROHS3 compliance and MSL Level 1 ratings, supporting deployment in regulated and moisture-sensitive environments.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: What determines whether ELM 2-17MM or ELM 2-665 can substitute for ELM 5-670?

A: Substitution is determined by alignment of core parameters: LED type (T1), material (black PVC), LED package size (3MM), lead configuration (2-lead), mounting orientation (vertical), and compliance certifications (ROHS3, MSL Level 1). Both substitute parts match these criteria. The primary distinction is length: ELM 2-17MM matches the exact 0.670" (17.02mm) specification, while ELM 2-665 operates at 0.665" (16.89mm).

Q: Can ELM 2-665 be used in applications requiring the exact 0.670" length specification?

A: ELM 2-665 operates at 0.665" (16.89mm), representing a 0.005" (0.13mm) reduction from the ELM 5-670 specification. Substitution suitability depends on whether the application design accommodates this dimensional variance. Applications with strict height constraints or tight mechanical tolerances require evaluation of this difference.

Q: Are all three parts packaged identically?

A: Yes. ELM 5-670, ELM 2-17MM, and ELM 2-665 are all supplied in Bag packaging, ensuring consistent handling and storage requirements.

Q: Do all substitute parts carry the same compliance certifications?

A: All three parts are ROHS3 compliant and carry Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited) ratings. This ensures regulatory compliance and suitability for moisture-sensitive environments across all options.

Q: What is the inventory status for each part?

A: ELM 5-670 maintains 963 pieces in stock. ELM 2-17MM has 1815 pieces available, and ELM 2-665 has 882 pieces available. All parts are listed as New Original In Stock.
