Application Guidelines
1. Circuit Design
- Operating Temperature and Frequency: Electrical parameters vary with temperature and frequency. Consider these variations in design.
- Operating Temperature and Life Expectancy: Refer to the file: Life calculation of aluminum electrolytic capacitor.
- Common Application Conditions to Avoid: Reverse Voltage, repeating charge/discharge applications, over voltage, excessive ripple current, and pulse current exceeding 10 times rated ripple current.
- Using Two or More Capacitors in Series or Parallel: Requires careful design to manage voltage and ripple current imbalances.
- Capacitor Mounting Considerations: Avoid wiring patterns under capacitors, ensure correct hole spacing, provide clearance for pressure relief vents, and avoid high voltage wiring near vents.
- Electrical Isolation: Ensure proper isolation between cathode/case, anode terminal, and other circuit paths.
- Product Endurance: Sample should be used as the standard.
- Load or Shelf Life Test: Collect date code within 6 months products of sampling.
- Capacitor Sleeve: Intended for marking and identification, not electrical insulation. Avoid solvents like toluene or xylene at high temperatures.
2. Capacitor Handling Techniques
- Considerations Before Using: Capacitors have finite life; do not reuse. Discharge transient recovery voltage if required. Long-term storage may increase leakage current. Avoid using dropped, dented, or crushed capacitors.
- Capacitor Insertion: Verify capacitance, rated voltage, and polarity. Ensure correct hole spacing to avoid stress.
- Manual Soldering: Observe temperature and time specifications. Avoid stress on lead wires.
- Flow Soldering: Do not immerse capacitor body into solder bath. Observe proper soldering conditions.
- Other Soldering Considerations: Avoid rapid temperature rises during preheat and resin bonding.
- Capacitor Handling after Solder: Avoid movement after soldering. Do not use capacitor as a handle. Avoid striking the capacitor.
- Circuit Board Cleaning: Use suitable cleaning solvents, rinse, and dry thoroughly. Avoid halogenated, alkali, petroleum-based solvents, xylene, and acetone unless specified.
- Mounting Adhesives and Coating Agents: Avoid materials containing halogenated solvents and chloroprene-based polymers. Dry thoroughly.
3. Precautions for using capacitors
- Environmental Conditions: Avoid extreme temperatures, direct contact with water/oil, high humidity, toxic gases, ozone, radiation, UV rays, and excessive vibration/shock.
- Electrical Precautions: Avoid touching terminals due to potential electric shock. Avoid short-circuiting terminals with conductive materials.
4. Emergency Procedures
- If pressure relief vent operates, immediately turn off equipment and disconnect power. Avoid contact with escaping electrolyte gas. Follow first aid procedures for eye/skin contact or ingestion.
5. Long Term Storage
- Leakage current increases with long storage. Recondition capacitors stored for over one year by applying rated voltage in series with a 1000 resistor for 30 minutes. Products with date codes over eighteen months should be returned for confirmation.
6. Capacitor Disposal
- Incinerate after crushing or puncturing to prevent explosion. Dispose of as solid waste, following local laws.
