ELM 7-130 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The ELM 7-130 is a T1 LED standoff manufactured by Bivar Inc., designed for vertical mounting applications with a 0.130" (3.30mm) height. This component is constructed from black PVC material and accommodates 2-lead LED 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 original specification, ensuring functional interchangeability in target applications.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the ELM 7-130 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• LED Type: T1 form factor
• Physical Height: 0.130" (3.30mm)
• Material Composition: Black PVC
• Lead Count: 2-lead configuration
• Mounting Style: Vertical standoff
• Regulatory Compliance: ROHS3 Compliant status
• Moisture Sensitivity: MSL 1 rating

The ELM 5-130 meets all specified parameters and is classified as a parametric equivalent. Both parts share identical dimensional, material, and compliance characteristics, differing only in series designation (ELM 5 versus ELM 7).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the ELM 7-130 and ELM 5-130 are Active products with ROHS3 compliance and MSL 1 rating, indicating suitability for unrestricted moisture environments and current regulatory requirements. Selection between these parts should be based on:

• Inventory Availability: ELM 5-130 maintains 1461 pieces in stock versus 1073 pieces for ELM 7-130
• Supply Chain Continuity: Both parts are manufactured by Bivar Inc. and maintain identical specifications
• Application Requirements: No differentiation exists based on provided electrical or mechanical parameters

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can ELM 5-130 directly replace ELM 7-130 in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical LED type (T1), physical dimensions (0.130"), material composition (black PVC), lead configuration (2LD), and compliance ratings (ROHS3, MSL 1). The series designation difference does not affect functional interchangeability.

Q: What parameters define substitution eligibility for T1 LED standoffs?

A: Substitution requires matching LED type, physical height, material, lead count, mounting orientation, RoHS compliance status, and moisture sensitivity level. Deviations in any parameter eliminate substitution eligibility.

Q: Are there packaging differences between ELM 7-130 and ELM 5-130?

A: Both parts are supplied in Bag packaging. No packaging differentiation is specified in the provided parameters.

Q: What is the significance of the MSL 1 rating?

A: MSL 1 indicates unlimited moisture sensitivity, meaning the component requires no special moisture control during storage, handling, or assembly processes.

Q: Can these parts be used interchangeably in new designs?

A: Yes. Both parts meet identical specifications and compliance requirements, making them functionally equivalent for new design implementations.
