Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

The ELM 5-23MM is qualified as a parametric equivalent within the ELM 5 series. Substitution between ELM 5-885 and ELM 5-23MM is permissible based on the following allowable parameters:

• Series: Both parts belong to the ELM 5 series
• LED Type: Both use T1 LED configuration
• Material: Both are Black PVC construction
• Mounting Orientation: Both are vertical (VERT) mount standoffs
• Packaging: Both supplied in Bag packaging
• Product Status: Both are Active
• RoHS Compliance: Both are ROHS3 Compliant
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: Both rated MSL 1 (Unlimited)
• Length Tolerance: Within the standard length specifications of the product family (0.885" to 0.910")

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the ELM 5-885 and ELM 5-23MM are Active status products with identical RoHS3 compliance and certification status. Component selection between these parts is determined by the mechanical length requirement of the application. The 0.025" (0.63mm) length difference between the two parts reflects standard dimensional variations within the ELM 5 series product family. Selection should be based on the specific mounting height clearance available in the target application, with both parts meeting identical electrical and compliance requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can ELM 5-23MM be used as a direct substitute for ELM 5-885?

A: ELM 5-23MM is a parametric equivalent where all electrical and material specifications match. The primary difference is the length: ELM 5-885 measures 0.885" (22.48mm) while ELM 5-23MM measures 0.910" (23.11mm). Substitution is permissible if the application accommodates this 0.025" (0.63mm) length variation.

Q: Are there any compliance or certification differences between these parts?

A: No. Both parts are ROHS3 Compliant with identical Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL 1) ratings, ECCN (EAR99), and HTSUS classifications.

Q: What material composition do these LED standoffs use?

A: Both parts are constructed from Black PVC material in T1 LED configuration, designed for vertical mounting applications.

Q: Does packaging differ between substitute parts?

A: No. Both ELM 5-885 and ELM 5-23MM are supplied in Bag packaging format.

Q: What is the primary parameter that determines substitution eligibility?

A: Both parts belong to the ELM 5 series with matching LED type (T1), material (Black PVC), and mounting style (vertical). Substitution eligibility is determined by whether the application design permits the 0.025" length dimensional difference and whether mechanical clearance requirements can be satisfied by either part length specification.
