Specifications are subject to change without notice. Users should verify actual device performance in their specific applications. The products described herein and this document are subject to specific legal disclaimers as set forth on the last page of this document, and at www.bourns.com/docs/legal/disclaimer.pdf. ## **[SC Series Breaker][ (Surface Mount Thermal Cutoff Device)]** ## ~~**Caution when using Breaker**~~ Before using the breaker, please fully read the _DESIGN AND HANDLING CAUTIONS_ stated below to avoid breaker performance deterioration and/or damage to the breaker body or terminal. ## **DESIGN CAUTIONS** 1. Use within the electrical ratings specified in this data sheet. If used over the rating of voltage or current, ON-OFF life might be impacted - and contact may deteriorate due to breaker arm damage. 2. If used over the maximum electrical rating specified in this data sheet, the circuit may not open safely or operate properly. Please test your device for any abnormalities and confirm that the breaker will open the circuit safely in your device. Any use over the maximum electrical rating is at the sole risk of the user. 3. Mount the breaker on your device where heat is the highest in order to transfer it effectively to the breaker. 4. If the breaker is affixed with an adhesive (resin, etc.), before proceeding, fully test, evaluate and verify that the adhesive presents no negative effects on the breaker before proceeding. 5. After the breaker is mounted, affix it so that the breaker body and terminals will not move. If not affixed properly, breaker resistance could increase or contact could open due to stress during handling or vibration/shock during transportation. 6. If breaker is to be resin-molded, test and evaluate the application to determine whether the breaker can be used effectively. 7. The breaker cannot be used as a repetitive ON-OFF thermostat. 8. The breaker is not washable. Do not wash. 9. Do not let a solder iron touch the breaker body. 10. Do not attach solder to the breaker body. 11. When mounting and after mounting the breaker, do not apply supersonic vibration. Vibration and heat may cause breaker resistance to increase or may cause body damage. If you plan to apply supersonic vibration after mounting the breaker, you will need to evaluate whether the breaker is suitable for your specific application. The breaker is not designed or warranted to withstand supersonic vibration. 12. Do not use the breaker in the following environments: - a) Water, oil, chemical or organic solutions - b) Direct sunlight, outdoor exposure, dust - c) Dew condensation, where the breaker could get wet - d) Salt breeze, chlorine, hydrogen sulfide, ammonium, sulfide-oxidation, hydrogen chloride, acetate and anywhere there is a possibility of generating corrosive gas such as sulfurous acid gas - e) Strong static electric charge or electromagnetic wave 13. The breaker is not designed or tested for, and should not be used in, aerospace, airplane, nuclear, military, life-saving, life-critical or life-sustaining medical and other related applications where failure or malfunction may result in personal injury, death or severe property or environmental damage. Specifications are subject to change without notice. Users should verify actual device performance in their specific applications. The products described herein and this document are subject to specific legal disclaimers as set forth on the last page of this document, and at www.bourns.com/docs/legal/disclaimer.pdf. ## **[SC Series Breaker][ (Surface Mount Thermal Cutoff Device)]** ## ~~**Caution when using Breaker (Continued)**~~ ## **HANDLING CAUTIONS** 1. Since the breaker body is composed of plastic parts, do not clamp or dent with tools as this could cause a resistance increase or body damage. 2. Breaker terminals are thin copper-alloy with right angle edges. Handle carefully to avoid injury to fingers. Handling while wearing finger cots and using tweezers is recommended. 3. When mounting the breaker on a cell or PCM board, be careful to avoid placing excessive stress on the breaker body and terminals. Excessive stress may cause a resistance increase or body damage. Please refer to the following cautions: - a) Do not apply more than 5 N (AAB) or 10 N (AAA) moment to the breaker body (refer to Figure 1) - b) Do not apply more than 1.5 cN-m (AAB) or 3 cN-m (AAA) twist torque to the breaker body (refer to Figure 2) c) Do not apply more than 15 N (AAB) or 30 N (AAA) bending force to the breaker body (refer to Figure 3) Figure 1 Figure 2 Figure 3 Due to possible updates to safety standards and other reasons, there may be changes in specifications for this data sheet without prior notification. Therefore, before design-in for your application, please contact us for the most up-to-date specifications. **Asia-Pacific:** Tel: +886-2 2562-4117 Email: asiacus@bourns.com **Europe:** Tel: +36 88 520 390 Email: eurocus@bourns.com **The Americas:** Tel: +1-951 781-5500 Email: americus@bourns.com **www.bourns.com** 12/18 Specifications are subject to change without notice.
