Standard atmospheric conditions

Unless otherwise specified, the standard range of atmospheric conditions for making measurementsand tests is as follows:

Ambient temperature : 15°c to 35°C

Relative humidity : 45% to 85%

Air pressure : 86kPa to 106kPa

If there is any doubt about the results, measurement shall be made within the followingconditions:Ambient temperature : 20°C to 2°C

Relative humidity : 60% to 70%

Air pressure : 86kPa to 106kPa

Operating temperature range

The ambient temperature range at which the capacitor can be operated continuously at ratedvoltageis (6.3~63WV) -55°C to 105°C

When using Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitors,please pay attention to the points listed below. If the following types of electrical loads are applied to Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitors,rapiddeterioration of electrical property occurs:

u 1. Reverse voltage

u 2. Overvoltage exceeding rated working voltage

u3.  Current exceeding rated ripple current

u 4. Severe charging/discharging

At such times,severe heat is generated,gas is emitted,then electrolyte leaks fromthe sealedarea,andpressure relief vent operates due to increase of internal pressure.In the worst case,explosionor ignitonmay occur,and along with destruction of the capacitor combustibles.
