B43740, B43760 Extra long useful life 105 °C Cautions and warnings Personal safety The electrolytes used by EPCOS have been optimized both with a view to the intended application and with regard to health and environmental compatibility. They do not contain any solvents that are detrimental to health, e.g. dimethyl formamide (DMF) or dimethyl acetamide (DMAC). Furthermore, some of the high-voltage electrolytes used by EPCOS are self-extinguishing.
B43740, B43760 Extra long useful life 105 °C Product safety The table below summarizes the safety instructions that must be observed without fail. A detailed description can be found in the relevant sections of chapter "General technical information". Topic Safety information Polarity Make sure that polar capacitors are connected with the right polarity. Reverse voltage Voltages polarity classes should be prevented by connecting a diode.
B43740, B43760 Extra long useful life 105 °C Topic Safety information Active flammability Maintenance Avoid overload of the capacitors. Storage Make periodic inspections of the capacitors. Before the inspection, make sure that the power supply is turned off and carefully discharge the electricity of the capacitors. Do not apply any mechanical stress to the capacitor terminals. Do not store capacitors at high temperatures or high humidity.
