f. Handling of capacitors after soldering

(1) Do not incline, bend, and twist capacitors.

(2) Do not grab capacitors as a handle to carry the printed circuit board.

(3) Do not hit objects against capacitors. When printed circuit boards are piled up, do not make them and/or

other components be in contact with capacitors.

(4) Do not drop printed circuit boards with capacitors installed.

g. Cleaning of printed circuit board

As long As the cleaning agents prescribed in the catalogue or specification sheets are used,

the cleaning does not give the capacitors any damage. For CFCs substitutions and other

cleaning agents, consult us before actual use.

h. Fixing and coating materials

Contact us for fixing and coating materials appropriate for capacitors and their heat curing

conditions.

4. Notes on use of capacitors in unit

a. Never make your fingers contact with the lead wire terminations of capacitors.

b. Do not make lead wire terminations of PEHA series to be in contact with each other through a

conductor. Do not put conductive liquid such as acid and alkali solutions on capacitors.

c. Confirm that the unit including capacitors is placed in proper conditions. Do not place the unit

in the following PEHAs:

(1) PEHA in which they are directly exposed to water, brine, oil or in condensation status.

(2) PEHA filled with poisonous gases including hydrogen sulfide, sulfurous acid, nitrous acid, chlorine and

ammonia.

(3) PEHA to which ultraviolet and /or radial rays are radiated

d. Provide aging for a unit containing capacitors within the period defined for them.

e. It is recommended to use a unit containing capacitors in the normal temperature range of

15

⁰C to 35⁰C and the normal humidity range of 75% or less.

5. Action at emergency

a. At the occurrence of short circuit in PEHA series, some heat is generated from it if the

short-current rather small. If the short current exceeds the above value, the capacitor is

heated excessively. If so, turn off the power of the unit without your face and hands being

close to the capacitors.
