10. Instructions of Capacitors
10.1 Cautions on use of Capacitor
10.1.1 Polarity
Solid electrolytic capacitors are polarized capacitors. Use capacitors after verifying their
positive and negative polarities. If these capacitors are installed in the reverse polarity,
its life may shorten because of increasing leakage current or short circuit.
10.1.2 Types of circuits in which capacitors are prohibited from being used AV5K series may
be heated by soldering to increase in its leakage current slightly. This may have some
influence on the characteristics capacitors in the following circuits.
(1) Time constant circuit
(2) Coupling circuit
(3) High impedance voltage holding circuit
(4) Connection of two or more capacitors in series for higher withstand voltage.
10.1.3 Over voltage
If AV5K series is applied a voltage higher than the rated voltage for an instantaneous
period, it may be defected due to short circuit. Note that the voltage over the rated
voltage must not be applied to capacitors.
10.1.4 Repeat of rapid charging and discharging
If AV5K series is used in a rapid charging and discharging circuit or receive the flow of
excess rush current, its life may shorten by large leakage current or short circuit. The
charging and discharging current through AV5K series should be less than 10A.
10.1.5 Reflow soldering
High soldering temperature and long soldering time will affect the characteristics of the
capacitors. Use reflow soldering condition within the recommended range. Also, the
temperature varies with the location and population of the components, the material and
the thickness of printed circuit board. Verify temperature profiles prior to actual
production run.

10.1.6 Use of capacitors for industrial equipment
When capacitors are used for industrial equipment, the circuits should be designed to
have sufficient margins in the ratings of capacitors including capacitance and
impedance. Without sufficient margins in the characteristics, the reliability of the
capacitors may be reduced by their shorter life. Always contact us if you want to use
capacitors for equipment affecting human lives such as space, aviation, atomic power,
and medical devices. Never use capacitors for the used without our prior approval.
10.2 Notes on circuit designs for capacitors
10.2.1 Rating and performance
Use capacitors within the rating and performance ranges defined in the brochures and
delivery specification of capacitors after checking the operating and installation
environments.
10.2.2 Operating temperature
If AV5K series is used at a temperature higher than the upper specified temperature
(105oC), its life may be remarkably shortened or the leakage current may increase to
cause defective.
10.2.3 Ripple current
Never make current larger than the rated ripple current through AV5K series. If excess
ripple current flows through AV5K series, internal heat may be generated largely to
make its life shortened or cause it to be defected due to short circuit.
10.2.4 Leakage current
Depending on the reflow soldering conditions, the leakage current of AV5K series may
increase slightly. The application of DC voltage enables the capacitors to be repaired by
itself. This leads the leakage current to be smaller gradually. The leakage current can be
reduced fast if the DC voltage, which is less than the rating voltage, is applied at the
temperature close to the upper specified temperature.
10.2.5 Applied voltage
Do not apply voltages exceeding the full rated voltage. If such voltage is applied, it may
cause short circuit even though it is just a moment.
(1) Sum of DC voltage and the peak of ripple voltage AC voltage shall not exceed the
rated voltage or category voltage.
(2) The sum of the DC voltage plus the negative peak AC voltage shall not allow reverse
voltage.

(3) Do not apply reverse voltage.
(4) For 25V products, the applied voltage shall follow the following figure as the
temperature is higher than 85℃。
10.2.6 Failure mode
AV5K series contains a conductive polymer as material of cathode electrode. Therefore,
like other solid electrolyte capacitors, the life ends mostly due to random failure mode,
mainly short circuit. If a current continuously flow through the capacitor due to short
circuit, the capacitor would be overheated higher than 300 oC and then aluminum case
of the capacitor would be removed by increasing internal pressure due to the
vaporization of materials.
10.2.7 Insulation
(1) Plastic coated case of capacitors is not secured to insulate. Do not use capacitors in
areas requiring insulation.
(2) Isolate the case of AV5K series from the positive and negative terminals and
adjacent circuit patterns.
10.2.8 Design of printed circuit board
Take note on the subjects when capacitors are installed on printed circuit boards:
(1) For surface mount capacitors, design the copper pads/lands of a printed circuit board
according to the catalog or product specifications.
(2) Do not place heating components on boards to be close to capacitors or in the
backside of them.
10.2.9 Parallel connection
If AV5K series is connected with another type of a capacitor in parallel, larger ripple
current may flow through one of capacitors. Take the current balance among them into
account in circuit designs.
10.2.10 Using temperature and frequency
The electric characteristics of capacitors depend on the variations of the ambient
temperature and frequency. Check the variations in designing circuits.

10.3 Notes on installation of capacitors
10.3.1 Notes on pre-installation of capacitors
(1) Do not reuse capacitors installed in a unit with the power supply turned on for
another unit. No used capacitors shall be reused excluding those removed to
measure their electric characteristics in periodical inspection.
(2) If AV5K series stored for a long period may often increase in its leakage current,
connect a resistor of approximately 1k to the capacitors for voltage treatment.
10.3.2 Notes at installation of capacitors
(1) Install capacitors in a unit after confirming that their ratings (rated capacitance and
rated voltages) meet the conditions of the unit.
(2) Install capacitors in the correct polarities.
(3) Take care not to drop capacitors on floors. Do not use capacitors dropped on floors.
(4) Do not deform capacitors to install them in units.
(5) Note capacitors may be damaged by mechanical shocks caused by the vacuum
head, component checker or centering operation of an automatic mounting machine.
(6) Do not dip the body of a capacitor into the solder bath.
(7) Do not solder capacitors more than once by reflow. Consult us for reflow-soldering
them twice over.
(8) Do not apply mechanical stress to the capacitor after soldering to the printed circuit
board.
(9) Do not use adhesives and coating materials containing halogenated solvents.
10.4 Notes on use of capacitors in unit
(1) Never make your fingers contact with the capacitor terminals.
(2) Do not make capacitor terminals to be in contact with each other through a conductor.
Do not put conductive liquid such as acid and alkali solutions on capacitors.
(3) Confirm that the unit including capacitors is placed in proper conditions. Do not place the
unit in the following areas:
(a) Area in which they are directly exposed to water, brine, or oil or in condensation
status.
(b) Area filled with poisonous gases including hydrogen sulfide, sulfurous acid, nitrous
acid, chlorine and ammonia.
(c) Area to which ultraviolet and/or radial rays are radiated
(4) Provide aging for a unit containing capacitors within the period defined for them.
(5) It is recommended to use a unit containing capacitors in the normal temperature range
of 15℃ to 35℃ and the normal humidity range of 75% or less.

10.5 Action at emergency
(1) At the occurrence of short circuit in AV5K series, some heat is generated from it if the
short-current rather small. If the short current exceeds the above value, the capacitors
are heated excessively. If so, turn off the power of the unit without your face and hands
being close to the capacitors.
(2) If you should expose your eyes to smoke from the capacitor or inhale it, immediately
flush the open eyes and gargle with water.
10.6 Storage
(1) Store capacitors in an area in the temperature range between 15 oC to 35 oC and the
relative humidity of 75% or less without direct sunshine. In addition, store them in the
package states if possible.
(2) SMD products are sealed in a special laminated aluminum bag. Use all capacitors once
the bag is opened. Return unused capacitors to the bag, and seal it with a zipper.
After the bag is opened, please use all capacitors within 6 month.
(3) Store capacitors in an airtight bag to keep the terminals in good condition.
(4) Store in a location where the capacitor is not exposed to ozone, ultraviolet radiation, or
other radiation.
(5) Never store capacitors in any area in which they are directly exposed to water, brine, or
oil or in condensation status.
10.7 Exhaustion of capacitors
Capacitors are composed of organic compounds, resins and metals. Request an industrial
dispose company to dispose of used Capacitors.
11. Export trade control ordinance
Item 41-4 in Section 2 of Appendix Table 1 (Section 49 in Chapter 1 of MITI' s Ordinance) and
Item 7 in Section 7 of Appendix Table 1 (Section 6 in Chapter 6 of MITI' s Ordinance) state
export regulations on pulse use capacitors (750V of higher) and high voltage use capacitors
(5,000V or higher).
However, aluminum electrolytic capacitors are less than 750V in their voltage range, so that the
regulations do not apply to the aluminum electrolytic capacitors.
