ELM 7-040 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The ELM 7-040 is a T1 LED standoff manufactured by Bivar Inc., designed for vertical mounting applications with a 0.040" (1.02mm) length specification. This component is constructed from black PVC material and accommodates T1 LED packages with 2-lead configurations. The part maintains Active product status and is ROHS3 compliant, making it suitable for current production environments. Identifying equivalent substitute parts becomes necessary when managing inventory optimization, supply chain continuity, or when the primary part number reaches end-of-life status.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the ELM 7-040 is determined by strict parameter matching across the following criteria:

Critical Matching Parameters:

• LED Type: T1
• Length: 0.040" (1.02mm)
• Material: PVC
• Color: Black
• Lead Configuration: 2LD
• RoHS Compliance: ROHS3 Compliant
• Moisture Sensitivity Level: 1 (Unlimited)

The substitute part ELM 4-1MM meets all critical parameters required for functional and mechanical equivalence. Both parts share identical physical dimensions, material composition, and environmental compliance ratings. The difference in series designation (ELM 7 versus ELM 4) reflects internal Bivar Inc. product line organization and does not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both ELM 7-040 and ELM 4-1MM are Active products with ROHS3 compliance and MSL Level 1 rating, indicating unrestricted moisture sensitivity handling. Selection between these parts should be based on:

Inventory Availability: ELM 4-1MM maintains higher stock levels (1213 Pcs) compared to ELM 7-040 (885 Pcs), supporting supply chain continuity objectives.

Compliance Alignment: Both parts satisfy identical regulatory requirements (ROHS3, EAR99 ECCN classification, HTSUS 3926.90.9985), ensuring no compliance barriers to substitution.

Mechanical Compatibility: Identical physical specifications (0.040" length, T1 LED accommodation, PVC construction, black color, 2-lead configuration) ensure direct form-fit-function equivalence in vertical mounting applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can ELM 4-1MM be used as a direct replacement for ELM 7-040?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical LED type (T1), length (0.040"/1.02mm), material (PVC), color (black), lead configuration (2LD), and compliance ratings (ROHS3, MSL 1). The series designation difference does not affect functional or mechanical compatibility.

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

A: No. Both parts carry identical RoHS3 compliance status, MSL Level 1 rating, ECCN classification (EAR99), and HTSUS code (3926.90.9985).

Q: What determines whether a part can substitute for ELM 7-040?

A: Substitution requires matching across all critical parameters: T1 LED type, 0.040" (1.02mm) length, PVC material, black color, 2-lead configuration, ROHS3 compliance, and MSL Level 1 rating.

Q: Does the ELM 4 series differ functionally from the ELM 7 series?

A: No functional difference exists. The series designation reflects Bivar Inc. internal product line organization. Both series use identical material, construction, and performance specifications for equivalent part numbers.

Q: Are packaging considerations identical between these parts?

A: Both parts are supplied in Bag packaging format, maintaining consistent handling and storage requirements.
