## 13.Reflow soldering conditions 

Please refer to the profile below for setting the temperature while soldering the surface mount type conductive polymer hybrid aluminum electrolytic capacitors through the reflow furnace. 

The temperature between the case top and the terminal of capacitor may not be equal depending on the process parameters (e.g. the reflow method, the reflow furnace, the PC board type and etc). Nevertheless, the capacitor temperature shall not exceed the profile below at any place.

## 14.Precautions of Soldering 

- (1) The capacitor shall not be subjected to either flow soldering or dip-soldering. 

- (2) The temperature setting for reflow soldering differs depending on the exact method employed and the kind of cream solder used. In particular, in the case of hot-plate reflow, the temperature recorded at the capacitor terminal is apt to be higher than that on the capacitor surface. However, for infrared-ray and air reflow methods, the opposite is true and the temperature on the surface of the capacitor is likely to be higher than that near the terminals. Therefore, the temperature shall be set at whichever is higher for each method. 

- (3) Since conductive polymer hybrid aluminum electrolytic capacitors are filled with electrolyte, their resistance to heat is not as good as that of other types of electronic components. On setting the reflow conditions, the surface temperature should not exceed 260degC. (For reflow ovens in particular, there is a possibility that the surface temperature could become much higher than round the terminals. If any abnormality is evident after soldering then the surface temperature of the capacitor should be checked immediately). 

- (4) Because the recommended reflow soldering conditions shown above are used as a reference, it is likely that there will be no problems encountered even at higher temperatures. However this will depend on the heat conduction properties of the reflow oven, the quantity, proximity and location of other components on the PCB and the material of the PCB itself. It is therefore advisable to confirm the reflow conditions in advance, and in the event that the actual conditions differ markedly from the recommended ones, please contact us. 

- (5) Even though reflow soldering may have to be repeated several times to satisfy the requirements of a particular process, conductive polymer hybrid aluminum electrolytic capacitors should be limited to a single pass. If this type of capacitor must be subjected to more than one reflow operation then sufficient cooling time should be given between the first and the second reflow (at least 30 minutes). 

- (6) Touch up work with a soldering iron is allowed after reflow soldering is complete (temperature of soldering iron: 350degC,  Time: 3 sec.), provided that careful attention is paid to avoid touching the capacitor can directly or the plastic platform. 

- (7) Vapour phase soldering may use temperatures as low as 215degC, but the heat stress to the capacitor can be large due to its high heat conduction. We therefore recommend customers do not use this method.

- 17．Precautions in using conductive polymer hybrid aluminum electrolytic capacitors 

- （１） If you shold reverse the polarities of a DC electrolytic capacitor,it would lead to short -circuited circuitey and may further result in an explosion if the unit kept energized. 

- （２） Avoid using capacitors in the circuit where the rapid charge / discharge are repeated. 

- （３） Do not apply any overvoltage exceeding the rated voltage(surge voltage for short period.) 

- （４） Do not allow any higher ripple currents than rated to flow through a capacitor. 

- （５） Do not use for a place exceeding the rated temperature range. 

- （６） Whenever you use a capacitor that has been long stored,make sure to gradually increase the voltage to the rated value. 

- （７） Be careful not to subject the terminal of capacitors to excessive force.

- (2) Operating temperature and applied ripple current shall be within the specification. 

- ① The capacitor shall not be used in an ambient temperature which exceeds the operating temperature specified in the specification. 

- ② Do not apply excessive current which exceeds the allowable ripple current. 

- (3) Appropriate capacitors which comply with the life requirement of the products should be selected when designing the circuit. 

- (4) Aluminum electrolytic capacitors are polarized. Make sure that no reverse voltage or AC voltage is applied to the capacitors. Please use bi-polar capacitors for a circuit that can possibly see reversed polarity. Note：Even bi-polar capacitors can not be used for AC voltage application. 

- (5) Avoid using capacitors in the circuit where the rapid charge / discharge are repeated. Please consult us when capacitors to be used in such circuit. Please do not apply a rush current that is larger than 10 A. 

- (6) Make sure that no excess voltage (that is, higher than the rated voltage) is applied to the capacitor. 

- ① Please pay attention so that the peak voltage, which is DC voltage overlapped by ripple current, will not exceed the rated voltage. 

- ② In the case where more than 2 aluminum electrolytic capacitors are used in series, please make sure that applied voltage will be lower than rated voltage and the voltage be will applied to each capacitor equally using a balancing resistor in parallel with the capacitors. 

- (7) Capacitors should be electrically isolated completely at the following points. ① Case and negative terminal (except axial leaded part such as JIS configuration 02 type). Case and positive terminal. Case and circuit pattern. 

- ② Auxialiary terminal of can type such as JIS style symbol 693, 694 or 695 and negative terminal and positive terminal, including the circuit pattern. 

- ③ Case and both terminals of a bi-polarized capacitor.

## APPLICATION GUIDELINES FOR CONDUCTIVE POLYMER HYBRID ALUMINUM ELECTROLYTIC CAPACITORS 

- (10) When designing a P.C. board, please pay attention to the following. 

- ① Have the hole spacing on the P.C. board match the lead spacing of the capacitor. 

- ② There should not be any circuit pattern or circuit wire above the capacitor pressure relief vent. 

- ③ Unless otherwise specified, following clearance should be made above the pressure relief vent. 

Case diameter Clearance under φ16 : 2 mm or more φ18 to φ35 : 3 mm or more φ40 or more : 5 mm or more 

- ④ In case the vent side is placed toward P.C. board (such as end seal vented parts), make a corresponding hole on the P.C. board to release the gas when vent is operated. The hole should be made to match the capacitor vent position. 

- ⑤ Screw terminal capacitors must be installed with their end seal side facing up. When you install a screw terminal capacitor lying down, the upper side must be the pressure relief vent or a positive terminal. 

- (11) The main chemical solution of the electrolyte and the separator paper used in the capacitors are combustible. The electrolyte is conductive. When it comes in contact with the P.C. board, there is a possibility of pattern corrosion or short circuit between the circuit pattern which could result in smoking or catching fire. Do not locate any circuit pattern beneath the capacitor end seal. 

- (12) Do not design a circuit board so that heat generating components are placed near an aluminum electrolytic capacitor or reverse side of P.C. board (under the capacitor). 

- (13) Please refer to the pad size layout recommendations in our specification when designing insurface mount capacitors. 

- (14) Electrical characteristics may vary depending on changes in temperature and frequency. Please consider this variation when you design circuits. 

- (15) When you mount capacitors on the double-sided P.C. boards, do not place capacitors on circuit patterns or over on unused holes. 

- (16) The torque for terminal screw or brackets screws shall be within the specified value on Nichicon's drawings. 

- (17) When you install more than 2 capacitors in parallel, consider the balance of current flowing through the capacitors. 

- (18) If more than 2 aluminum electrolytic capacitors are used in series, make sure the applied voltage will be lower than the rated voltage and that voltage will be applied to each capacitor equally using a balancing resistor in parallel with each capacitor. 

- ２．Mounting (1) Once a capacitor has been assembled in the set and power applied, even if a capacitor is discharged, an electric potential (restriking voltage) may exist between the terminals. 

- (2) Electric potential between positive terminal and negative terminal may exist as a result of returned electromotive force, so please discharge the capacitor using a 1 kΩ resistor. 

- (3) Leakage current of the parts that have been stored for more than 2 years may increase. If leakage current has increased, please perform a voltage treatment using 1 kΩ resistor. 

- (4) Please confirm ratings before installing capacitors on the P.C. board. (5) Please confirm polarity before installing capacitors on the P.C. board. (6) Do not drop capacitors on the floor, nor use a capacitor that was dropped.

## APPLICATION GUIDELINES FOR CONDUCTIVE POLYMER HYBRID ALUMINUM ELECTROLYTIC CAPACITORS 

- (7) Do not damage the capacitor while installing. 

- (8) Please confirm that the lead spacing of the capacitor matches the hole spacing of the P.C. board prior to installation. 

- (9) Snap-in can type capacitor such as JIS style symbol 692, 693, 694 and 695 type should be installed tightly to the P.C. board (allow no gap between the P.C. board an bottom of the capacitor). 

- (10) Please pay attention that the clinch force is not too strong when capacitors are placed and fixed by an automatic insertion machine. 

- (11) Please pay attention to that the mechanical shock to the capacitor by suction nozzle of the automatic insertion machine or automatic mounter, or by product checker, or by centering mechanism. 

- (12) Hand soldering 

- ① Soldering condition shall be confirmed to be within the specification. 

- ② If it is necessary that the leads must be formed due to a mismatch of the lead space to hole space on the board, bend the lead prior to soldering without applying too much stress to the capacitor. 

- ③ If you need to remove parts which were soldered, please melt the solder enough so that stress is not applied to lead. 

- ④ Please pay attention so that soldering iron does not touch any portion of capacitor body. 

- (13) Flow soldering (Wave solder) 

- ① Capacitor body must not be submerged into the solder bath. Capacitors must be mounted on the "top side" of the P.C. board and only allow the bottom side of the P.C. board to come in contact with the solder. 

- ② Soldering condition must be confirmed to be within Nichicon's specification. ③ Please avoid having flux adhere to any portion except the terminal. ④ Please avoid contact between other components and the capacitor. 

- (14) Reflow soldering (SMD only) 

- ① Soldering condition must be confirmed to be within Nichicon's specification. 

- ② When an infrared heater is used, please pay attention to the extent of heating since the absorption rate of infrared, will vary due to difference in the color of the capacitor body, material of the sleeve and capacitor size. 

- (15) Soldeing flux 

   - There are non-halogen types of flux that do not contain ionic halides, but contain many non-ionic halides. When these non-ionic halides infiltrate the capacitor, they cause a chemical reaction that is just as harmful as the use of cleaning agents. Use soldering flux that dose not contain non-ionic halides. 

- (16) Shrinkage, bulging and / or cracking could be seen on the outer sleeve of the capacitor when capacitors are kept in for more than 2 minutes at 150 ℃ ambient temperature during soldering at reflow process or resin curing process. Applying high temperature gas or heat ray to capacitor can cause the same phenomenon. 

- (17) Do not tilt lay down or twist the capacitor body after the capacitor are soldered to the P.C. board. 

- (18) Do not carry the P.C. board by grasping the soldered capacitor. 

- (19) Please do not allow anything to touch the capacitor after soldering. If P.C. board are stored in a stack, please make sure P.C. board or the other components do not touch the capacitor. The capacitors shall not be effected by any radiated heat from the soldered P.C. board or other components after soldering.

|There are variations of cleaning agents, fixing and coating materials, so please contact|
|those manufacture or our sales office to make sure that the material would not cause any|
|problems.|
|(22) Others|
|When halogen contained in a fumigation agent enters the capacitors, it may chemically|
|react with the electrolytic solution, electrode foil, etc. inside. (Some gases mainly|
|permeate the sealing parts of the capacitors and they enter the capacitors.)|
|When this chemical reaction progresses further, the capacitors may cause a leakage|
|current failure, opening failure, pressure valve operation, etc. due to the corrosion|
|of the aluminum materials inside.|
|The capacitors may be fumigated by halogen compounds, such as methyl bromide, when|
|they are exported or being used to protect them against pests.|
|When fumigating capacitors and devices embedded with capacitors and when using packing|
|materials, such as a pallet, that have been fumigated, be very careful so that the|
|capacitors are not exposed to the halogen atmosphere.|
|３．In the equipment|
|(1)|Do not directly touch either terminal by hand to avoid getting an electric shock.|
|(2)|To avoid any potential scalding, do not allow a capacitor to come incontact or close|
|proximity with your hands or any exposed skin.  The pressure relief vent operates when|
|a capacitor gets overheated or has been subject to abnormal conditions.|
|The steam emitted can exceed 100 ℃.|
|(3)|Do not make a capacitor short-circuited between its terminals with conductor, nor spill|
|conductible liquid such as alkaline or acidic solution on or near the capacitor.|
|(4)|Please make sure that the ambient conditions where the appliance is installed have none of|
|the following conditions：|
|① Where capacitors are exposed to water, high temperature & high humidity atmosphere, or|
|condensation of moisture.|
|② Where capacitors are exposed to oil or an atmosphere that is filled with particles of oil.|
|③ Where capacitors are exposed to salty water, high temperature & high humidity atmosphere,|
|or condensation of moisture.|
|④ The atmosphere is filled with toxic acid gasses (e.g. hydrogen sulfide, sulfurous acid,|
|nitrous acid, chlorine, bromine, methyl bromide, etc.)|
|⑤ The atmosphere is filled with toxic alkaline gasses (e.g. ammonia)|
|⑥ Where capacitors are exposed to acidic or alkaline solutions.|
|⑦ Since shrinkage, bulging and / or crack could be seen on outer sleeve of capacitor when|
|capacitors are used in atmosphere where condensation of moisture occures, please confirm|
|their adaptation before the use. The condensation of moisture could occure when|
|temperature cycling test / Rapid change of temperature test is performed, in this case,|
