MOUNTING

Normal Use

The capacitors are designed for mounting on printed-circuit boards. The capacitors packed in bandoliers are designed for

mounting in printed-circuit boards by means of automatic insertion machines.

Specific Method of Mounting to Withstand Vibration and Shock

In order to withstand vibration and shock tests, it must be ensured that the capacitor body is in good contact with the printed-circuit

board.

• For L ≤ 19 mm capacitors shall be mechanically fixed by the leads

• For larger pitches the capacitors shall be mounted in the same way and the body clamped

• The maximum diameter and length of the capacitors are specified in the dimensions table

• Eccentricity as shown in the drawing below:

Storage Temperature

Ratings and Characteristics Reference Conditions

Unless otherwise specified, all electrical values apply to an ambient free air temperature of 23 °C ± 1 °C, an atmospheric pressure

of 86 kPa to 106 kPa and a relative humidity of 50 % ± 2 %.

For reference testing, a conditioning period shall be applied over 96 h ± 4 h by heating the products in a circulating air oven at

the rated temperature and a relative humidity not exceeding 20 %.
