Datasheet

Mounting
1. Potting, sealing or adhesive compounds can produce chemical reactions in the SIOV ceramic
that will degrade the component’s electrical characteristics.
2. Overloading SIOVs may result in ruptured packages and expulsion of hot materials. For this
reason SIOVs should be physically shielded from adjacent components.
Operation
1. Use SIOVs only within the specified temperature operating range.
2. Use SIOVs only within the specified voltage and current ranges.
3. Environmental conditions must not harm SIOVs. Use SIOVs only in normal atmospheric con-
ditions. Avoid use in deoxidizing gases (chlorine gas, hydrogen sulfide gas, ammonia gas,
sulfuric acid gas etc), corrosive agents, humid or salty conditions.Contact with any liquids and
solvents should be prevented.
Display of ordering codes for EPCOS products
The ordering code for one and the same EPCOS product can be represented differently in data
sheets, data books, other publications, on the EPCOS website, or in order-related documents
such as shipping notes, order confirmations and product labels. The varying representations of
the ordering codes are due to different processes employed and do not affect the
specifications of the respective products. Detailed information can be found on the Internet
under www.epcos.com/orderingcodes
