Inrush current limiters B57364S0***M0** ICLs S364 Application notes The following two important aspects for determining the right NTC inrush current limiter are excerpted from the chapter "Application notes" in the "NTC Inrush Current Limiters, Data book 2012". The complete application note can be downloaded from www.epcos.com/ntcicl_appnotes. 1.4 Load derating The power handling capability of an NTC thermistor cannot be fully utilized over the entire temperature range.
Inrush current limiters B57364S0***M0** ICLs S364 TA = Ambient temperature > 65 °C Tmax = 170 °C The Imax values specified in the data sheets denote the maximum permissible continuous current (DC or RMS values for sine-shaped AC) in the temperature range 0 °C to 65 °C. 1.6 Maximum permissible capacitance The currents during turn-on are much higher than the rated currents during continuous operation.

Inrush current limiters B57364S0***M0** ICLs S364 Mounting instructions 1 Soldering 1.1 Leaded NTC thermistors Leaded thermistors comply with the solderability requirements specified by CECC. When soldering, care must be taken that the NTC thermistors are not damaged by excessive heat. The following maximum temperatures, maximum time spans and minimum distances have to be observed: Dip soldering Iron soldering Bath temperature max. 260 °C max. 360 °C Soldering time max. 4 s max.
Inrush current limiters B57364S0***M0** ICLs 1.1.2 S364 Wave soldering Temperature characteristic at component terminal with dual wave soldering 2 Robustness of terminations The leads meet the requirements of IEC 60068-2-21. They may not be bent closer than 4 mm from the solder joint on the thermistor body or from the point at which they leave the feedthroughs. During bending, any mechanical stress at the outlet of the leads must be removed. The bending radius should be at least 0.75 mm.
Inrush current limiters B57364S0***M0** ICLs S364 When subjecting leads to mechanical stress, the following should be observed: Tensile stress on leads During mounting and operation tensile forces on the leads are to be avoided. Bending of leads Bending of the leads directly on the thermistor body is not permissible. A lead may be bent at a minimum distance of twice the wire's diameter +2 mm from the solder joint on the thermistor body.
Inrush current limiters B57364S0***M0** ICLs S364 Cautions and warnings General See "Important notes" on the last page. Storage Store thermistors only in original packaging. Do not open the package before storage. Storage conditions in original packaging: storage temperature 25 °C ... +45 °C, relative humidity ≤75% annual mean, maximum 95%, dew precipitation is inadmissible. Avoid contamination of thermistors surface during storage, handling and processing.
Inrush current limiters B57364S0***M0** ICLs S364 Mounting When NTC inrush current limiters are encapsulated with sealing material or overmolded with plastic material, the precautions given in chapter “Mounting instructions”, “Sealing and potting” must be observed. Electrode must not be scratched before/during/after the mounting process. Contacts and housings used for assembly with thermistor have to be clean before mounting.
