LONG-TERM STORAGE METHOD AND LONG-TERM STORAGE PERIOD
1. Please keep the product in its carton box.
2. Please do not apply excessive vibration, shock or mechanical stress applied directly on the product.
3. Please keep away from direct sunlight.
4. For long-term storage temperature and humidity, the following conditions shall be usedas a guidline:
Temperature range: 5°C ~ 30°C.
Humidity range: 40% ~ 60~ RH.
Please keep away from places where temperature and humidity can change extremely. It can cause
condensation on the product or deterioration.
5. For long-term storage period, we recommend to use within 2 years after receiving the product.
There is tendency that the leakage current of an aluminium electrolytic capacitor may increase when stored
witout usage for a long time.
This phenomenon can be minimized by applying voltage to the aluminium electrolytic capacitor to reduce the
increased leakage current through the self-recovery effect of the electrolyte.
For reference, before using products that have been stored for a very long time, please warm-up first for 30
minutes or more without load.
1. Implementation period: 1 year or above after delivery.
2. Electrical continuity condition
Input voltage: Rated.
Load: 0 Amperes (no load condition).
Ambient temperature: according to product specifications.
Time: 30 minutes or more.
