Cautions and warnings

The table below summarizes the safety instructions that must always be observed. A detailed de-

scription can be found in the relevant sections of the chapters "General technical information" and

"Mounting guidelines".



X Class according to IEC 60384-14 – Capacitor type for use in situations where failure of the

component would not lead to danger of electrical shock but could result in a risk of fire if with

application over specification or severe ambient condition.



Do not exceed the upper category temperature (UCT).



Do not apply any mechanical stress to the capacitor terminals.



Avoid any compressive, tensile or flexural stress.



Do not move the capacitor after it has been soldered to the PC board.



Do not pick up the PC board by the soldered capacitor.



Do not place the capacitor on a PC board whose PTH hole spacing differs from the specified

lead spacing.



Do not exceed the specified time or temperature limits during soldering.



Avoid external energy inputs, such as fire or electricity.



Avoid overload of the capacitors.



Consult us if application is with severe temperature and humidity condition.



There are no serviceable or repairable parts inside the capacitor. Opening the capacitor or any

attempts to open or repair the capacitor will void the warranty and liability of TDK Electronics.



Please note that the standards referred to in this publication may have been revised in the

meantime.

Storage

conditions

Make sure that capacitors are stored within the specified

range of time, temperature and humidity conditions.

4.5

"Storage conditions"

Flammability

Avoid external energy, such as fire or electricity (passive

flammability), avoid overload of the capacitors (active

flammability) and consider the flammability of materials.

5.3

"Flammability"

Resistance to

vibration

Do not exceed the tested ability to withstand vibration.

The capacitors are tested to IEC 60068-2-6:2007. TDK

Electronics offers film capacitors specially designed for

operation under more severe vibration regimes such as

those found in automotive applications. Consult our

catalog "Film Capacitors for Automotive Electronics".

5.2

"Resistance to

vibration"

Soldering

Do not exceed the specified time or temperature limits

during soldering.

1 "Soldering"

Cleaning

Use only suitable solvents for cleaning capacitors.

2 "Cleaning"

Embedding of

capacitors in

finished

assemblies

When embedding finished circuit assemblies in plastic

resins, chemical and thermal influences must be taken

into account.

Caution: Consult us first, if you also wish to embed other

uncoated component types!
