LEDS1E-16-01 LED Spacer Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The LEDS1E-16-01 is a T1 LED standoff spacer manufactured by Essentra Components, designed for vertical mounting applications requiring a 1.000" (25.40mm) height. This black PVC component is classified as obsolete, making identification of active equivalent and substitute parts essential for ongoing production and maintenance requirements. Substitute parts must maintain functional compatibility through matching LED type, material composition, color, and mechanical dimensions within acceptable tolerance ranges.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the LEDS1E-16-01 is determined by the following critical parameters:

• LED Type: Must be T1 (3mm LED package)
• Material: Must be PVC
• Color: Must be Black
• Length Tolerance: Acceptable range 0.984" to 1.024" (25.00mm to 26.00mm) to accommodate standard PCB mounting clearances and component spacing requirements

Parts meeting all four criteria are classified as parametric equivalents. The direct substitute ELM 4-1.000 matches the exact length specification and is sourced from an alternative manufacturer (Bivar Inc.) while maintaining identical functional parameters.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Direct Substitute (Exact Match): ELM 4-1.000 from Bivar Inc. provides identical dimensional and material specifications to the LEDS1E-16-01. This part maintains the exact 1.000" (25.40mm) length and is currently in active production status with ROHS3 compliance certification. This is the preferred selection for applications requiring no dimensional adjustment.

Parametric Equivalents (Length Variance): LEDM-2-25 and LEDM-2-26 are active Essentra Components parts within the acceptable length tolerance range. LEDM-2-25 at 0.984" (25.00mm) represents a 0.016" reduction from the original specification. LEDM-2-26 at 1.024" (26.00mm) represents a 0.024" increase. Both parts maintain RoHS compliance and are suitable for applications where minor height variations do not impact circuit board layout or component clearance requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can LEDM-2-25 or LEDM-2-26 be used interchangeably with LEDS1E-16-01? A: Yes, within design constraints. Both parts meet the core substitution criteria (T1 LED type, black PVC material). The length variance of ±0.024" falls within standard PCB mounting tolerances for most applications. Verify that your specific application can accommodate the dimensional difference before implementation.

Q: What is the difference between parametric equivalents and direct substitutes? A: Direct substitutes match all specifications exactly. ELM 4-1.000 is a direct substitute with identical 1.000" length. Parametric equivalents (LEDM-2-25, LEDM-2-26) meet functional requirements but with minor dimensional variations within acceptable tolerance ranges.

Q: Why is LEDS1E-16-01 classified as obsolete? A: Obsolete status indicates the part is no longer in active production by the manufacturer. Active alternatives are available to fulfill the same functional requirements.

Q: Are all substitute parts RoHS compliant? A: Yes. LEDS1E-16-01, LEDM-2-25, and LEDM-2-26 are RoHS Compliant. ELM 4-1.000 is ROHS3 Compliant, which represents an updated compliance standard and is fully acceptable for new designs.

Q: What packaging format is available for ELM 4-1.000? A: ELM 4-1.000 is supplied in Bag packaging. Confirm packaging requirements for your procurement and assembly processes.
