Safety Precautions
Great detail and careful attention are given to the production of HVICs, such as in the development, the quality of production, and in its
reliability. However, the reliability of HVICs depends not only on their own factors but also in how they are used. When handling HVICs
please note the following cautions.
CAUTIONS
Packaging: The materials used in packaging HVICs can only withstand normal external conditions. When exposed to outside shocks,
rain, and certain environmental contamination, the packaging materials will deteriorate. Please take care in handling.
Carrying: 1. Don't stack boxes too high. Avoid placing heavy materials on boxes.
2. Boxes must be positioned correctly during transportation to avoid breakage.
3. Don't throw or drop boxes.
4. Keep boxes dry. Avoid rain or snow.
5. Minimal vibration and shock during transportation is desirable.
Storage: When storing HVICs, please observe the following notices or possible deterioration of their electrical characteristics,
risk of solderability, and external damage may occur.
1. Devices must be stored where fluctuation of temperature and humidity is minimal and must not be exposed to
direct sunlight. Store at the normal temperature of 5 to 30°C with humidity at 40 to 60%.
2. Avoid locations where corrosive gasses are generated or where a lot of dust accumulates.
3. Storage cases must be static proof.
4. Avoid putting weight on boxes.
Extended When extended storage is necessary, HVICs must be kept non-processed. When using HVICs which have been stored for
Storage: more than one year or under severe conditions, be sure to check that the exterior is free from flaws or other damage.
Maximum To prevent any electrical damage, use HVICs within the maximum ratings. The temperature, current, voltage, etc., must
Ratings: not exceed these conditions.
Polarity: To prevent HVICs from destruction and deterioration due to wrong insertion, make sure polarity of inserting leads into
the board hole conforms to the external view for the terminal arrangement.
