PRECAUTIONS
(1) During transportation and storage
Do not transport or store where the prodcuts will be exposed to high temperature or high humidity.
Do not expose to poisonous gases such as H2SO4, HCl, or HNO3.
Avoid excessive impact such as that caused by falling.
(2) During operation
Avoid contact with electrolytes such as perspiration. Do not touch with bare hands.
Avoid excessive impact such as that caused by falling.
Do not apply solder to stud terminals.
Do not re-machine the terminals.
(3) Usage
Make sure that the prodcuts are not exposed to radiant heat from chambers or transformers.
