LEDM-3-23 LED Spacer Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The LEDM-3-23 is a T1 3/4 LED standoff spacer manufactured by Essentra Components. This black PVC component measures 0.906" (23.00mm) in length and is designed to provide mechanical spacing and alignment for T1 3/4 LED assemblies. The part is currently active in production with 908 units in stock. Substitute parts are identified when equivalent LED form factors, material composition, and mechanical dimensions fall within acceptable tolerance ranges for the same application class.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the LEDM-3-23 are qualified based on the following criteria:

• LED Form Factor: T1 3/4 compatibility (mechanical fit requirement)
• Material: Black PVC (chemical and thermal compatibility)
• Length Tolerance: Nominal length within ±0.032" (±0.8mm) of the main part specification
• Color: Black (visual and functional consistency)
• Compliance: RoHS compliance status maintained across substitutes
• Moisture Sensitivity: MSL 1 rating (no moisture sensitivity constraints)

The LEDS2-14-26 and ELM 1-875 meet these criteria as parametric equivalents. Both parts maintain T1 3/4 LED compatibility, black PVC construction, and equivalent length specifications within acceptable mechanical tolerance ranges.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All three parts maintain active product status and full RoHS compliance, ensuring regulatory alignment for current and future applications. The LEDS2-14-26 and ELM 1-875 are functionally equivalent to the LEDM-3-23 within the mechanical tolerance envelope defined by T1 3/4 LED standoff specifications.

Length variance between the main part and substitutes ranges from 0.031" to 0.032", which falls within standard mechanical tolerance for LED spacer applications. The ELM 1-875 offers the highest inventory availability at 20,420 units, while the LEDS2-14-26 provides mid-range stock levels at 1,715 units.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can LEDS2-14-26 be used as a direct replacement for LEDM-3-23?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical LED form factor (T1 3/4), material (black PVC), and MSL rating (1). The length difference of 0.032" (0.80mm) is within acceptable mechanical tolerance for T1 3/4 LED standoff applications.

Q: What is the length tolerance range for these substitutes?

A: The LEDM-3-23 specifies 0.906" (23.00mm), while LEDS2-14-26 measures 0.874" (22.20mm) and ELM 1-875 measures 0.875" (22.22mm). All three fall within the standard mechanical tolerance envelope for T1 3/4 LED spacers.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: The LEDM-3-23 is supplied in standard packaging, while LEDS2-14-26 and ELM 1-875 are supplied in bulk packaging. Packaging format does not affect functional compatibility.

Q: Do all substitutes meet RoHS requirements?

A: Yes. LEDM-3-23 and LEDS2-14-26 are RoHS Compliant, while ELM 1-875 is ROHS3 Compliant. Both compliance levels satisfy current regulatory requirements.

Q: Which substitute offers the best inventory availability?

A: ELM 1-875 provides the highest stock level at 20,420 units, followed by LEDS2-14-26 at 1,715 units.
