Y2 Capacitor
Plastic film capacitors use organic films for their dielectrics, thus the capacitors may fume of
flame, depending on the circuit
conditions they are in, when they are damaged by applying over-voltage or over-current.
1. Circuit Design
Please use capacitors within the range of their characteristic ratings, only after confirming their operating and mounting environments.
In case of selecting a capacitor, please select the most suitable one which fits to your operating conditions.
Capacitors used for Across-The-Line, Line-By-Pass and Antenna-Coupling to suppress noises in an equipment, the capacitors need to be
approved by overseas Safety Standards or 'Electric Appliance and Material Control' by Ministry of international Trade
and Industry.
An applying voltage to a capacitor, including the peak of surge and ripple voltage (D.C. voltage + A.C. Peak), cannot be exceeded the
rating voltage.
Do not apply a current over its permissible level. Also, make sure the check the surrounding temperature and inherent temperature rise
of a capacitor since a permissible current can be restricted by those factors.
Please contact Chiefcon for further details, if mechanical resonance (hum) occurs to a capacitor.
Do not conduct a rapid charge and discharge to a capacitor which may lead to characteristics degradations or break down of the
capacitor.
2. Mounting
Do not apply any exceeding tension or torsion to lead wires of a capacitor, during the mounting process
Please mount a capacitor where it dose not contact any other heating parts, high voltage parts and other parts.
Please conduct soldering process by strictly following the specified conditions.
3. Case of an emergency
If a fuming, a flaming or an usual smell occurs from an equipment during its usage, please cut off the power supply by switching it off,
pulling the plug out or other methods.
4. Storing and handling
A storage needs to be kept indoors at -10+40 and relative humidity of under 75% without any sudden temperature changes, direct
sunlight and corrosive gas around.
Do not apply and exceeding vibration, shock (dropping) and pressure.
5. Rejection
In case of rejecting capacitors, please seek for professionals who deal with the industrial wastes treatments.
