Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the H-130C-2-160 are classified based on the following key parameters that determine substitutability:

LED Type: All substitute parts support T1 LED dimensions
Color: All substitute parts are black, matching the original specification
Length Range: Substitute parts include lengths from 0.280" (7.11mm) to 0.295" (7.49mm), within the mechanical envelope parameters
Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL): All substitute parts maintain MSL 1 (Unlimited) rating
Compliance Status: Substitute parts with Active product status and RoHS3 compliance are available for modern applications

The H-130C-1-160 is a direct similar part from the same H130C series with Active status. The ELM 2 and ELM 4 series parts represent parametric equivalents that differ in material composition (PVC vs. Nylon) but maintain functional compatibility across the specified length range.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Substitute: The H-130C-1-160 is the recommended direct replacement for the H-130C-2-160. Both parts share identical specifications including the same series, LED type, color, length, and material composition. The H-130C-1-160 carries Active product status and RoHS3 compliance, making it suitable for new designs and ongoing production.

Alternative Substitutes: The ELM 2 and ELM 4 series parts provide functional equivalents for applications where material variation is acceptable. These parts maintain the same LED type, color, and MSL rating while differing in material composition (PVC instead of Nylon) and length range (0.280" to 0.295"). Selection from this group depends on the specific length requirement of your application.

Parts with exact length match to the original (0.290") are H-130C-1-160, ELM 2-290, and ELM 4-290. All three alternatives carry Active product status and RoHS3 compliance certification.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can ELM 2 and ELM 4 series parts directly replace the H-130C-2-160? A: Yes. These parts are parametric equivalents that share the same LED type (T1), color (Black), and MSL rating (1). The primary difference is material composition: ELM series parts use PVC instead of Nylon. Length variations range from 0.280" to 0.295", allowing selection based on your specific mechanical envelope requirements.

Q: What is the difference between the H-130C-1-160 and H-130C-2-160? A: These parts are similar variants within the same H130C series with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. The primary distinction is product status: H-130C-2-160 is Obsolete while H-130C-1-160 is Active and RoHS3 Compliant. The H-130C-1-160 should be used for new applications.

Q: Does length variation between substitutes affect compatibility? A: Length compatibility depends on your application's mechanical constraints. All substitute parts maintain T1 LED compatibility with lengths from 0.280" to 0.295". If your design requires the exact 0.290" length of the original H-130C-2-160, use H-130C-1-160, ELM 2-290, or ELM 4-290.

Q: Are all substitute parts RoHS3 compliant? A: The H-130C-1-160 and all ELM 2 and ELM 4 series parts are RoHS3 compliant. This certification applies to modern production and regulatory requirements.

Q: What is MSL 1 (Unlimited) and does it apply to all substitutes? A: MSL 1 (Unlimited) indicates the lowest moisture sensitivity level, meaning the component has no moisture sensitivity constraints during storage and handling. All substitute parts share this rating with the original H-130C-2-160.
