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