Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the LEDS2M-850-01 are qualified based on the following critical parameters:

• LED Type: T1 3/4 (exact match required)
• Length: 0.850" (21.59mm) or mechanically compatible alternative lengths
• Material: Nylon
• Color: Natural
• Compliance: RoHS and REACH status alignment

The LEDS2E-14-01 (Essentra Components) is a parametric equivalent with identical LED type, material, and color, but features a slightly longer 0.875" (22.22mm) length. This minor dimensional difference may be acceptable in applications with sufficient PCB clearance.

The 8340 (Keystone Electronics) is a direct dimensional equivalent with matching 0.850" (21.59mm) length, identical LED type, material, and color specifications. This part provides a cross-manufacturer substitute option.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

LEDS2E-14-01 (Essentra Components): This substitute is suitable for applications where a 0.025" (0.63mm) length increase is mechanically acceptable. Both parts share identical manufacturer lineage, material composition, and compliance certifications. Selection of this part should be based on PCB layout clearance verification.

8340 (Keystone Electronics): This substitute provides exact dimensional equivalence to the LEDS2M-850-01 with identical length, LED type, material, and color. The part meets ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status. Cross-manufacturer substitution is appropriate when supply constraints require alternative sourcing while maintaining identical mechanical and electrical specifications.

All three parts maintain active product status and bulk packaging format, ensuring consistent availability and handling characteristics across substitute options.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can LEDS2E-14-01 be used as a direct replacement for LEDS2M-850-01?

A: LEDS2E-14-01 is mechanically compatible if the 0.025" (0.63mm) additional length does not conflict with PCB clearance or assembly constraints. Both parts are identical in LED type, material, and color. Verify available space in your specific application before substitution.

Q: What is the primary difference between LEDS2M-850-01 and 8340?

A: Both parts are dimensionally and functionally equivalent with matching 0.850" length, T1 3/4 LED type, nylon material, and natural color. The primary difference is manufacturer: LEDS2M-850-01 is from Essentra Components, while 8340 is from Keystone Electronics. Both meet applicable RoHS and REACH compliance requirements.

Q: Are all substitute parts available in bulk packaging?

A: Yes. LEDS2M-850-01, LEDS2E-14-01, and 8340 are all supplied in bulk packaging format, maintaining consistent handling and inventory management across all substitute options.

Q: Do compliance certifications differ between substitute parts?

A: LEDS2M-850-01 and LEDS2E-14-01 are RoHS Compliant. The 8340 is ROHS3 Compliant. All three parts are REACH Unaffected. Both RoHS and ROHS3 designations meet current regulatory requirements; ROHS3 represents the most recent compliance standard.

Q: What parameters must remain constant when selecting a substitute?

A: LED type (T1 3/4), material (nylon), and color (natural) must remain constant. Length may vary within application-specific mechanical constraints. All substitutes must maintain active product status and applicable compliance certifications.
