Cautions and warnings

Please read Cautions and warnings and

Important notes at the end of this document.

11

Do not apply excessive force to the leads and terminals. Do not move the capacitor after sol-

dering it onto the PC board and do not carry the PC board by gripping the capacitor. Observe

the following rules to prevent undue stress to the capacitor:

a Do not tilt or bend the capacitor after soldering.

b Ensure that the terminal spacing matches the corresponding hole spacing on the PC

board.

12

The aluminum case is not insulated from the cathode. Do not place a conductor under the

aluminum capacitors on the PC board as this may cause a short circuit. The case and top of

capacitors used in switched mode power supplies have a high-voltage-resistant heat shrink

sleeve to ensure safe usage.

13

The leads of capacitors with a case diameter exceeding 14 mm cannot be used for fixing.
