Film Capacitors – AC Line EMI Suppression and RC Networks Metallized Polypropylene Film EMI Suppression Capacitors - F873, Class X1, 760 VAC 

## **Soldering Process** 

The implementation of the RoHS directive has resulted in the selection of SnAgCu (SAC) alloys or SnCu alloys as primary solder. This has increased the liquidus temperature from that of 183ºC for SnPb eutectic alloy to 217 – 221°C for the new alloys. As a result, the heat stress to the components, even in wave soldering, has increased considerably due to higher pre−heat and wave temperatures. Polypropylene capacitors are especially sensitive to heat (the melting point of polypropylene is 160 – 170°C). Wave soldering can be destructive, especially for mechanically small polypropylene capacitors (with lead spacing of 5 – 15 mm), and great care has to be taken during soldering. The recommended solder profiles from KEMET should be used. Please consult KEMET with any questions. In general, the wave soldering curve from IEC Publication 61760–1 Edition 2 serves as a solid guideline for successful soldering. Please see Figure 1. 

Reflow soldering is not recommended for through−hole film capacitors. Exposing capacitors to a soldering profile in excess of the above the recommended limits may result to degradation or permanent damage to the capacitors. 

Do not place the polypropylene capacitor through an adhesive curing oven to cure resin for surface mount components. Insert through−hole parts after the curing of surface mount parts. Consult KEMET to discuss the actual temperature profile in the oven, if through−hole components must pass through the adhesive curing process. A maximum two soldering cycles is recommended. Please allow time for the capacitor surface temperature to return to a normal temperature before the second soldering cycle.

Following is the recommendation for manual soldering with a soldering iron. 

The soldering iron tip temperature should be set at 350°C (+10°C maximum), with the soldering duration not to exceed more than 3 seconds.

|Polyester|160°C|
|Polypropylene|110°C|
|Paper|160°C|
|Polyphenylene Sulphide|160°C|



_Temperature monitored inside the capacitor._ 

## **Selective Soldering Recommendations** 

Selective dip soldering is a variation of reflow soldering. In this method, the printed circuit board with through−hole components to be soldered is preheated and transported over the solder bath as in normal flow soldering without touching the solder. When the board is over the bath, it is stopped and pre−designed solder pots are lifted from the bath with molten solder only at the places of the selected components, and pressed against the lower surface of the board to solder the components. 

The temperature profile for selective soldering is similar to the double wave flow soldering outlined in this document, **however, instead of two baths, there is only one bath with a time from 3 to 10 seconds.** In selective soldering, the risk of overheating is greater than in double wave flow soldering, and great care must be taken so that the parts are not overheated.

All Information given herein is believed to be accurate and reliable, but it is presented without guarantee, warranty, or responsibility of any kind, expressed or implied. 

Statements of suitability for certain applications are based on KEMET Electronics Corporation’s (“KEMET”) knowledge of typical operating conditions for such applications, but are not intended to constitute – and KEMET specifi cally disclaims – any warranty concerning suitability for a specifi c customer application or use. The Information is intended for use only by customers who have the requisite experience and capability to determine the correct products for their application.

Although KEMET designs and manufactures its products to the most stringent quality and safety standards, given the current state of the art, isolated component failures may still occur. Accordingly, customer applications which require a high degree of reliability or safety should employ suitable designs or other safeguards (such as installation of protective circuitry or redundancies) in order to ensure that the failure of an electrical component does not result in a risk of personal injury or property damage. 

Although all product–related warnings, cautions and notes must be observed, the customer should not assume that all safety measures are indicated or that other measures may not be required.
