Warning: - Each product should be carefully evaluated and tested for their suitability of application.
- Operation beyond the specified maximum rating or improper use may result in damage and possible
electrical arcing and/or flame.
- PPTC device are intended for occasional overcurrent protection. Application for repeated overcurrent
condition and/or prolonged trip are not anticipated.
- Avoid contact of PPTC device with chemical solvent, including some inert material such as silicone based
oil, lubricant and etc. Prolonged contact will damage the device performance.
- Additional protection mechanism are strongly recommended to be used in conjunction with the PPTC
device for protection against abnormal or failure conditions.
- Avoid use of PPTC device in a constrained space such as potting material, housing and containers
where have limited space to accommodate device thermal expansion and/or contraction.
NOTE : Specification subject to change without notice.
