Environmental Usage Precautions
This product is for general electronic use. RALEC is not responsible for any damage, costs, or losses caused by using this product in special environments. Confirmation with RALEC is required for other applications. Customers intending to use this product in special environments or conditions (including but not limited to high temperature/humidity, corrosive atmospheres like sea breeze, Cl2, H2S, NH3, SO2, NO2, unverified liquids, unverified resins/coatings, or using water-soluble cleaning agents after soldering) must have product characteristics and reliability individually approved.
Transient Overload Precautions
This product may experience functional loss due to transient overload. Exercise caution in manufacturing and storage to avoid transient currents exceeding product specifications.
Handling and Operation Precautions
- Ensure resistor edges and protective coating are free from mechanical stress damage during operation.
- Handle Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs) carefully when separating or fixing them to support structures, as PCB bending can cause mechanical stress on resistors.
- Resistors must be used within their rated power range. Exceeding the rated value can lead to temperature rise and potential equipment damage.
- If the resistor is likely to experience significant load (pulse) impacts, the operating environment must be set up before use.
Evaluate and confirm the product in your actual application state, and ensure system safety with fail-safe design.
Storage and Handling Conditions
- Storage life: 2 years under 25±5, 60±15% RH.
- Avoid harsh environments during storage, such as sea breeze, corrosive gases (Cl2, H2S, NH3, SO2, NO2), direct sunlight, and condensation, as they may affect product performance and solderability.
- Ensure correct orientation of the packaging during handling and storage. Avoid dropping or squeezing the package, which may damage the product's electrodes or body.
