Cautions and warnings
■
Please note the advices in our data book “Chokes and Inductors” (latest edition).
– Particular attention should be paid to the derating curves given there.
– The soldering conditions given there should also be observed. Temperatures quoted in
relation to wave soldering refer to the pin, not the housing.
■
If the components are to be washed, it is necessary to check whether any washing agent that is
used has an negative effect on the wire insulation, any plastics that are used, or on glued joints.
In particular, it is possible for washing agent residues to have a negative effect in the long-term
on wire insulation.
■
The following points must be observed if the components are potted:
– Many potting materials shrink as they harden. They therefore exert a pressure on the core.
This pressure can have a deleterious effect on electrical properties, and in extreme cases can
damage the core mechanically.
– It is necessary to check whether the potting material used attacks or destroys the wire
insulation.
– The effect of the potting material can change the high-frequency behaviour of the components.
■
Ferrites are sensitive to direct impact.
This can cause the core material to flake, or lead to breakage of the core.
Even for customer-specific products, conclusive validation of the component in the circuit can only
be carried out by the customer.

Important notes
The following applies to all products named in this publication:
1. Some parts of this publication contain
statements about the suitability of our products for
certain areas of application.
These statements are based on our knowledge of typical
requirements that are often placed on our products in the areas of application concerned. We
nevertheless expressly point out
that such statements cannot be regarded as binding
statements about the suitability of our products for a particular customer application.
As
a rule, EPCOS is either unfamiliar with individual customer applications or less familiar with them
than the customers themselves. For these reasons, it is always ultimately incumbent on the
customer to check and decide whether an EPCOS product with the properties described in the
product specification is suitable for use in a particular customer application.
2. We also point out that
in individual cases, a malfunction of electronic components or failure
before the end of their usual service life cannot be completely ruled out in the current state
of the art, even if they are operated as specified.
In customer applications requiring a very
high level of operational safety and especially in customer applications in which the malfunction
or failure of an electronic component could endanger human life or health (e. g. in accident
prevention or life-saving systems), it must therefore be ensured by means of suitable design of
the customer application or other action taken by the customer (e. g. installation of protective
circuitry or redundancy) that no injury or damage is sustained by third parties in the event of
malfunction or failure of an electronic component.
3.
The warnings, cautions and product-specific notes must be observed.
4. In order to satisfy certain technical requirements,
some of the products described in this
publication may contain substances subject to restrictions in certain jurisdictions (e. g.
because they are classed as “hazardous”).
Useful information on this will be found in our
Material Data Sheets on the Internet (www.epcos.com/material). Should you have any more
detailed questions, please contact our sales offices.
5. We constantly strive to improve our products. Consequently,
the products described in this
publication may change from time to time.
The same is true of the corresponding product
specifications. Please check therefore to what extent product descriptions and specifications
contained in this publication are still applicable before or when you place an order.
We also
reserve the right to discontinue production and delivery of products.
Consequently,
we cannot guarantee that all products named in this publication will always be available.
6. Unless otherwise agreed in individual contracts,
all orders are subject to the current version
of the “General Terms of Delivery for Products and Services in the Electrical Industry”
published by the German Electrical and Electronics Industry Association (ZVEI).
7. The trade names EPCOS, BAOKE, Alu-X, CeraDiode, CSSP, MiniBlue, MKK, MLSC, MotorCap,
