Mounting guidelines
1 Soldering
1.1 Solderability of leads
The solderability of terminal leads is tested to IEC 60068-2-20, test Ta, method 1.
Before a solderability test is carried out, terminals are subjected to accelerated ageing (to
IEC 60068-2-2, test Ba: 4 h exposure to dry heat at 155 °C). Since the ageing temperature is far
higher than the upper category temperature of the capacitors, the terminal wires should be cut off
from the capacitor before the ageing procedure to prevent the solderability being impaired by the
products of any capacitor decomposition that might occur.
Solder bath temperature 235 ±5 °C
Soldering time 2.0 ±0.5 s
Immersion depth 2.0 +0/0.5 mm from capacitor body or seating plane
Evaluation criteria:
Visual inspection Wetting of wire surface by new solder ≥90%, free-flowing solder
1.2 Resistance to soldering heat
Resistance to soldering heat is tested to IEC 60068-2-20, test Tb, method 1A.

1.3 General notes on soldering
Permissible heat exposure loads on film capacitors are primarily characterized by the upper cate-
gory temperature T . Long exposure to temperatures above this type-related temperature limit
max
can lead to changes in the plastic dielectric and thus change irreversibly a capacitor's electrical
characteristics. For short exposures (as in practical soldering processes) the heat load (and thus
the possible effects on a capacitor) will also depend on other factors like:
Pre-heating temperature and time
Forced cooling immediately after soldering
Terminal characteristics:
diameter, length, thermal resistance, special configurations (e.g. crimping)
Height of capacitor above solder bath
Shadowing by neighboring components
Additional heating due to heat dissipation by neighboring components
Use of solder-resist coatings
The overheating associated with some of these factors can usually be reduced by suitable coun-
termeasures. For example, if a pre-heating step cannot be avoided, an additional or reinforced
cooling process may possibly have to be included.
EPCOS recommends the following conditions:
Pre-heating with a maximum temperature of 110 °C
Temperature inside the capacitor should not exceed the following limits:
MKP/MFP 110 °C
MKT 160 °C
When SMD components are used together with leaded ones, the leaded film capacitors should
not pass into the SMD adhesive curing oven. The leaded components should be assembled af-
ter the SMD curing step.
Leaded film capacitors are not suitable for reflow soldering.
Uncoated capacitors
For uncoated MKT capacitors with lead spacings ≤10 mm (B32560/B32561) the following mea-
sures are recommended:
pre-heating to not more than 110 °C in the preheater phase
rapid cooling after soldering

2 Cleaning
To determine whether the following solvents, often used to remove flux residues and other sub-
stances, are suitable for the capacitors described, refer to the table below:
Type Ethanol, n-propanol-water Solvent from Solvent from
isopropanol, mixtures, table A (see table B (see
n-propanol water with surface next page) next page)
tension-reducing
tensides (neutral)
MKT Suitable Unsuitable In part suitable Unsuitable
(uncoated)
MKT, MKP, MFP Suitable Suitable
(coated/boxed)
Even when suitable solvents are used, a reversible change of the electrical characteristics may
occur in uncoated capacitors immediately after they are washed. Thus it is always recommended
to dry the components (e.g. 4 h at 70 °C) before they are subjected to subsequent electrical test-
ing.

3 Embedding of capacitors in finished assemblies
In many applications, finished circuit assemblies are embedded in plastic resins. In this case,
both chemical and thermal influences of the embedding ("potting") and curing processes must be
taken into account.
Our experience has shown that the following potting materials can be recommended: non-flexible
epoxy resins with acid-anhydride hardeners; chemically inert, non-conducting fillers; maximum
curing temperature of 100 °C.
Caution:
Consult us first if you wish to embed uncoated types!

bent on the customer to check and decide whether an EPCOS product with the properties de-
scribed 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 lifesaving 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 Ma-
terial Data Sheets on the Internet (www.epcos.com/material). Should you have any more de-
tailed 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 fore-
going for customer-specific products.
6. Unless otherwise agreed in individual contracts, all orders are subject to the current ver-
sion of the "General Terms of Delivery for Products and Services in the Electrical In-
dustry" published by the German Electrical and Electronics Industry Association

What they say about us
FANTASTIC RESOURCE
One of our top priorities is maintaining our business with precision, and we are constantly looking for affiliates that can help us achieve our goal.

With our strict fundamentals and high expectations, we were surprised when we came across GID Industrial and their competitive pricing. When we approached them with our issue, they were incredibly confident in being able to provide us with a seamless solution at the best price for us.

HARD TO FIND A BETTER PROVIDER
Our company provides services to aid in the manufacture of technological products, such as semiconductors and flat panel displays, and often searching for distributors of obsolete product we require can waste time and money. Finding GID Industrial proved to be a great asset to our company, with cost effective solutions and superior knowledge on all of their materials, it’d be hard to find a better provider of obsolete or hard to find products.
Applied Materials
CONSISTENTLY DELIVERS QUALITY SOLUTIONS
Over the years, the equipment used in our company becomes discontinued, but they’re still of great use to us and our customers. Once these products are no longer available through the manufacturer, finding a reliable, quick supplier is a necessity, and luckily for us, GID Industrial has provided the most trustworthy, quality solutions to our obsolete component needs.

TERRIFIC RESOURCE
This company has been a terrific help to us (I work for Trican Well Service) in sourcing the Micron Ram Memory we needed for our Siemens computers. Great service! And great pricing! I know when the product is shipping and when it will arrive, all the way through the ordering process.

GO TO SOURCE
When I can't find an obsolete part, I first call GID and they'll come up with my parts every time. Great customer service and follow up as well. Scott emails me from time to time to touch base and see if we're having trouble finding something.....which is often with our 25 yr old equipment.
