Cautions and warnings

In case auxiliary contacts are used for switching of discharge resistors (not in accordance with IEC

60831 standard), make sure that the current of the discharge resistors is not higher than the rated

current of the auxiliary contacts.

Mounting instructions

In the area of capacitor switching contactors, difficultly inflammable and self-extinguishing materials may be

used only, because abnormal temperatures within the area of the resistance spirals cannot be excluded.

Note

For detailed information about PFC key components and cautions, refer to the latest version of

EPCOS PFC Product Profile.

Important: Please note that the „General Safety Recommendations for Power Capacitors“ by ZVEI

(German Electrical and Electronic Manufacturers´ Association (ZVEI) have to be observed in addition

to the caution guidelines stated in the data sheet (Internet: www.epcos.com/pfc).
