Cautions and Warnings:

The following conditions apply to all goods within the product series of WA-SPARO of

Würth Elektronik eiSos GmbH & Co. KG:

General:

• This mechanical component is designed and manufactured for use in general electronic equipment.

• Würth Elektronik must be asked for written approval (following the PPAP procedure) before incorporating the components into any

equipment in fields such as military, aerospace, aviation, nuclear control, submarine, transportation (automotive control, train control,

ship control), transportation signal, disaster prevention, medical, public information network, etc. where higher safety and reliability are

especially required and/or if there is the possibility of direct damage or human injury.

• Mechanical components that will be used in safety-critical or high-reliability applications, should be pre-evaluated by the customer.

• The component is designed and manufactured to be used within the datasheet specified values. If the usage and operation conditions

specified in the datasheet are not met, the component may be damaged or dissolved.

• Do not drop or impact the components, the component may be damaged.

• Würth Elektronik products are qualified according to international standards, which are listed in each product reliability report. Würth

Elektronik does not warrant any customer qualified product characteristics beyond Würth Elektroniks’ specifications, for its validity and

sustainability over time.

• The responsibility for the function of the application of the customer specific products and use in a particular customer design is always

the full and autonomous responsibility of the customer. All technical specification for standard products also apply to customer specific

products.

Product Specific:

Cleaning and Washing:

• Washing agents used during the production to clean the customer application might damage or change the characteristics of the

components. Washing agents may have a negative effect on the long-term functionality of the product.

• Using a brush during the cleaning process may damage the component. Therefore, we do not recommend using a brush during the PCB

cleaning process.

Potting and Coating:

• If the product is potted in the customer application, the potting material might shrink or expand during and after hardening. Shrinking

could lead to an incomplete seal, allowing contaminants into the components. Expansion could damage the components. We

recommend a manual inspection after potting or coating to avoid these effects.

Storage Conditions:

• A storage of Würth Elektronik products for longer than 12 months is not recommended. Within other effects, the terminals may suffer

degradation, resulting in bad processability. Therefore, all products shall be used within the period of 12 months based on the day of

shipment.

• Do not expose the components to direct sunlight.

• The storage conditions in the original packaging are defined according to DIN EN 61760-2.

• The storage conditions stated in the original packaging apply to the storage time and not to the transportation time of the components.

Packaging:

• The packaging specifications apply only to purchase orders comprising whole packaging units. If the ordered quantity exceeds or is

lower than the specified packaging unit, packaging in accordance with the packaging specifications cannot be ensured.

Handling:

• The maximum permissible torques must be complied with to prevent mechanical destruction of the component and PCB.

• If a component is pre-assembled with an adhesive tape, the adhesive duration cannot be guaranteed. This depends on the surface

where the component will be mounted on. It also depends on the environmental conditions the component is exposed to. The customer

has to evaluate this for his specific application.

• Violation of the technical product specifications will void the warranty.

• Coated metal parts may have spots and/or deposits because of the rinsing and drying process during plating. The storage and

processability are not affected.

• The temperature rise of the component must be taken into consideration. The operating temperature is comprised of ambient

temperature and temperature rise of the component.The operating temperature of the component shall not exceed the maximum

temperature specified.

These cautions and warnings comply with the state of the scientific and technical knowledge and are believed to be accurate and reliable.

However, no responsibility is assumed for inaccuracies or incompleteness.
