LED Spacer LEDS2M-480-01 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The LEDS2M-480-01 is a molded LED spacer manufactured by Essentra Components, designed for T1 3/4 LED applications with a 0.480" (12.19mm) standoff height. This component is classified as obsolete, making identification of functionally equivalent alternatives essential for ongoing production and maintenance applications. The natural nylon construction provides mechanical support and electrical isolation for LED mounting in standard T1 3/4 form factor assemblies.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for LED spacers is determined by strict mechanical and material compatibility criteria. The primary parameters governing substitutability are:

• LED form factor (T1 3/4 compatibility)
• Standoff height (0.480" / 12.19mm)
• Material composition (Nylon)
• Color specification (Natural)

The substitute part Keystone Electronics 8332 meets all four critical parameters, establishing functional equivalence for direct replacement in T1 3/4 LED mounting applications requiring 0.480" standoff height.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The Keystone Electronics 8332 is the qualified substitute for the obsolete LEDS2M-480-01. Both parts share identical mechanical specifications (T1 3/4 form factor, 0.480" standoff height) and material properties (natural nylon construction). The 8332 maintains active product status with current availability, whereas the LEDS2M-480-01 is obsolete. Both parts carry REACH Unaffected status and EAR99 export classification, ensuring regulatory consistency. The 8332 additionally carries RoHS3 compliance certification. For applications requiring the LEDS2M-480-01, the 8332 provides direct functional replacement without design modification.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the Keystone Electronics 8332 directly replace the Essentra LEDS2M-480-01?

A: Yes. Both parts are mechanically and materially identical: T1 3/4 LED form factor, 0.480" (12.19mm) standoff height, natural nylon construction. Direct substitution is valid for all applications using the LEDS2M-480-01.

Q: What is the primary reason for substitution?

A: The LEDS2M-480-01 is classified as obsolete. The 8332 is an active product with current manufacturing and inventory availability.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: The LEDS2M-480-01 is supplied in standard packaging, while the 8332 is supplied in bulk packaging. Both formats contain the same component specification.

Q: Do both parts meet the same regulatory requirements?

A: Both parts carry REACH Unaffected status and EAR99 export classification. The 8332 additionally carries RoHS3 compliance certification, providing enhanced regulatory coverage.

Q: What parameters must remain constant for substitution validity?

A: LED form factor (T1 3/4), standoff height (0.480" / 12.19mm), material (nylon), and color (natural) must remain unchanged. Deviation from any of these parameters invalidates substitution.
