Cautions and warnings
In case of dents or any other mechanical damage, capacitors must not be used at all.
This applies also in cases of oil leakages.
To ensure the full functionality of the overpressure disconnector, elastic elements must not be
hindered and a minimum space of 12 mm has to be kept above each capacitor basic cell.
Do not handle the capacitor before it is discharged.
Resonance cases must be avoided by appropriate application design in any case.
Handle capacitors carefully, because they may still be charged even after disconnection due to
faulty discharging devices.
Protect the capacitor properly against over current and short circuit.
Failure to follow cautions may result, worst case, in premature failures, bursting and fire.
Discharging
Capacitors must be discharged to a maximum of 10% of rated voltage before they are switched in
again. This prevents an electric impulse discharge in the application, influences the capacitor’s
service life and protects against electric shock. The capacitor must be discharged to 50 V or less
within 1 minute. There must be not any switch, fuse or any other disconnecting device in the circuit
between the power capacitor and the discharging device. SquareCap-capacitors have a pre-mounted
ceramic discharge module;. Discharge and short circuit capacitor before handling!
Service life expectancy
Electrical components do not have an unlimited service life expectancy; this applies to self-healing
capacitors too. The maximum service life expectancy may vary depending on the application the
capacitor is used in.
Safety
Electrical or mechanical misapplication of capacitors may be hazardous. Personal injury or property
damage may result from bursting of the capacitor or from expulsion of oil or melted material due to
mechanical disruption of the capacitor.
Ensure good, effective grounding for capacitor enclosures.
Provide means of disconnecting and insulating a faulty component/bank.
The terminals of capacitors, connected bus bars and cables as well as other devices may also be
energized.
Follow good engineering practice.
Thermal load/over-temperature
After installation of the capacitor it is necessary to verify that maximum hot-spot temperature is not
exceeded at extreme service conditions.

Overpressure disconnector
To ensure full functionality of an overpressure disconnector, the following must be observed:
1. The elastic elements must not be hindered.
2. The maximum allowed fault current of 10000 A in accordance with UL 810 standard must be
assured by the application.
3. Stress parameters of the capacitor must be within the IS 13340 specification.
Overcurrent and short circuit protection
Use HRC fuses or MCCBs for short circuit protection. Short circuit protection and connecting
cables should be selected so that 1.5 times the rated capacitor current can be permanently
handled.
HRC fuses do not protect a capacitor against overload – they are only for short circuit protection.
The HRC fuse rating should be 1.6 to 1.8 times rated capacitor current.
Do not use HRC fuses to switch capacitors (risk of arcing).
Use thermal magnetic over current relays for overload protection.
Resonance cases
Resonance cases must be avoided by appropriate application design in any case. Maximum total
RMS capacitor current (incl. fundamental harmonic current) specified in technical data must not be
exceeded.
Re-switching vs. phase-opposition
In case of voltage interruption, a sufficient discharge time has to be ensured to avoid phase-
opposition and resulting high inrush currents.
Vibration resistance
The resistance to vibration of capacitors corresponds to IEC 68, part 2–6.
Max. test conditions:
Test duration 6 h*
Frequency range 1 10 ... 55 Hz*
Displacement amplitude 0.75 mm*
*corresponding to max. 98.1 m/s or 10 g

The following applies to all products named in this publication:
1. Some parts of this publication contain statements about the suitability of our products for
certain areas of application. These statements are based on our knowledge of typical
requirements that are often placed on our products in the areas of application concerned. We
nevertheless expressly point out that such statements cannot be regarded as binding
statements about the suitability of our products for a particular customer application. As a
rule we are either unfamiliar with individual customer applications or less familiar with them than
the customers themselves. For these reasons, it is always ultimately incumbent on the customer
to check and decide whether a product with the properties described in the product specification is
suitable for use in a particular customer application.
2. We also point out that in individual cases, a malfunction of electronic components or failure
before the end of their usual service life cannot be completely ruled out in the current state
of the art, even if they are operated as specified. In customer applications requiring a very high
level of operational safety and especially in customer applications in which the malfunction or
failure of an electronic component could endanger human life or health (e.g. in accident
prevention or life-saving systems), it must therefore be ensured by means of suitable design of the
customer application or other action taken by the customer (e.g. installation of protective circuitry
or redundancy) that no injury or damage is sustained by third parties in the event of malfunction or
failure of an electronic component.
3. The warnings, cautions and product-specific notes must be observed.
4. In order to satisfy certain technical requirements, some of the products described in this
publication may contain substances subject to restrictions in certain jurisdictions (e.g.
because they are classed as hazardous). Useful information on this will be found in our Material
Data Sheets on the Internet (www.tdk-electronics.tdk.com/material). Should you have any more
detailed questions, please contact our sales offices.
5. We constantly strive to improve our products. Consequently, the products described in this
publication may change from time to time. The same is true of the corresponding product
specifications. Please check therefore to what extent product descriptions and specifications
contained in this publication are still applicable before or when you place an order.
We also reserve the right to discontinue production and delivery of products. Consequently,
we cannot guarantee that all products named in this publication will always be available.
The aforementioned does not apply in the case of individual agreements deviating from the
foregoing for customer-specific products.
6. Unless otherwise agreed in individual contracts, all orders are subject to our General Terms
and Conditions of Supply.
7. Our manufacturing sites serving the automotive business apply the IATF 16949 standard.
The IATF certifications confirm our compliance with requirements regarding the quality
management system in the automotive industry. Referring to customer requirements and
customer specific requirements (“CSR”) TDK always has and will continue to have the policy of
respecting individual agreements. Even if IATF 16949 may appear to support the acceptance of
unilateral requirements, we hereby like to emphasize that only requirements mutually agreed
upon can and will be implemented in our Quality Management System. For clarification
purposes we like to point out that obligations from IATF 16949 shall only become legally binding if
individually agreed upon.
