6. P.C. BOARD
When mounting on an aluminum substrate, large case sizes such as C3225,
C4532 and C5750 types are more likely to be affected by heat stress from the
substrate. Please inquire separate specification for the large case sizes when
mounted on the substrate.
7. INDUSTRIAL WASTE DISPOSAL
Dispose this product as industrial waste in accordance with the local Industrial Waste Laws.
