Recommended Cleaning Precautions f or CTZ-E types only
1) When washing with solution (IPA), follow conditions below:
a) Ultr asound wave washing under 1 minute.
b) Soak washing under 5 minutes. However, if using both ultrasound and soak washing, the total washing time should be under 3 minutes.
2) When revolving, the silicon coating will break and the torque will increase. This is not irregular. Once the silicon coating breaks, the torque
will return to normal value.

Application Cautions
Mounting:
1) Solder reflo w temperature should not e xceed 240°C.
2) Prev ent flux or wax from flo wing between rotor and stator.
3) Do not run conductor patterns underneath the mounted
trimmer capacitor.
Avoid solvent washes.
Adjustment:
1) Any capacitance adjustments should be executed 12
hours after reflow soldering has been completed.
2) Maximum load on rotor by adjusting screw driver
should not exceed 100 g r ams (3.53 ounces).
3) For critical and/or accurate capacitance adjustments
rotate 360° before finding setting. When tight toler ance
of a CTZ's setting is needed in a circuit add a fixed
capacitor as a "str ay capacitor" in series or par allel with
the CTZ to tighten the tolerance of the CTZ's setting
drift.
Store in normal ambient conditions.
Avoid high temperatures, humid air, and dust.
Application cautions, inc lusive f or CTZ3 E and
CTZ2 E series:
1) Maintain the following conditions when washing with
solv ents such as freon etc.
(1) Ultrasonic wave wash within 1 min ute
(2) Immersion wash within 5 min utes
When using ultrasonic wave wash with immersion
wash total time should remain under 3 minutes.
2) Do not wash after rotating the rotor.
3) When rotation is started, torque is temporarily high
(maximum 200 g•cm) due to the silicon coating.
Torque should be normal after first rotation.
NOTE: For CTZ2 S and CTZ3 S series avoid the use of
solv ent washes .
