Cautions and warnings  

Please read all warning and safety notes carefully before installing the filter and putting it into op-  

eration (see

 

). The same applies to the warning signs on the filter. Please ensure that the signs  

are not removed nor their legibility impaired by external influences.  

Death, serious bodily injury and substantial material damage to equipment may occur if the appro-  

priate safety measures are not carried out or the warnings in the text are not observed.  

Using according to the terms  

The filters may be used only for their intended application within the specified values in low-  

voltage networks in compliance with the instructions given in the data sheets and the data book.  

The conditions at the place of application must comply with all specifications for the filter used.  

Warning  



It shall be ensured that only qualified persons (electricity specialists) are engaged on work such  

as planning, assembly, installation, operation, repair and maintenance. They must be provided  

with the corresponding documentation.  



Danger of electric shock. Filters contain components that store an electric charge. Dangerous  

voltages can continue to exist at the filter terminals for longer than five minutes even after the  

power has been switched off.  



The protective earth connections shall be the first to be made when the filter is installed and the  

last to be disconnected. Depending on the magnitude of the leakage currents, the particular  

specifications for making the protective earth connection must be observed.  



Impermissible overloading of the filter or filter, such as with circuits able to cause resonances,  

impermissible voltages at higher frequencies etc. can lead to bodily injury and death as well as  

cause substantial material damages (e.g. destruction of the filter housing).  



Filters must be protected in the application against impermissible exceeding of the rated cur-  

rents by overcurrent protective devices.  



In case of leakage currents >3.5 mA you shall mount the PE conductor stationary with the re-  

quired cross section before beginning of operation and save it against disconnecting. For leak-

4)

.

 



Output chokes and output filters must be protected in the application against impermissible ex-  

ceeding of the component temperature.  



The converter output frequency must be within the specified range to avoid resonances and un-  

controlled warming of the output chokes and output filters.  



Because the product can become very hot during operation, there is the risk of burns if  

touched. The product can remain hot for some time after the power is switched off!

Important notes  

The following applies to all products named in this publication:  

1. Some

 

parts of this publication contain

statements about the suitability of our products for  

certain areas of application

. These statements are based on our knowledge of typical  

requirements that are often placed on our products in the areas of application concerned. We  

nevertheless expressly point out

that such statements cannot be regarded as binding  

statements about the suitability of our products for a particular customer application.

As  

a rule, we are either unfamiliar with individual customer applications or less familiar with them  

than the customers themselves. For these reasons, it is always ultimately incumbent on the  

customer to check and decide whether a product with the properties described 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 life-saving 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  

any more detailed 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 foregoing for customer-specific products.  

6. Unless

 

otherwise agreed in individual contracts,

all orders are subject to our General Terms  

and Conditions of Supply

.

Important notes  

7.

Our manufacturing sites serving the automotive business apply the IATF 16949  

standard

. The IATF certifications confirm our compliance with requirements regarding the  

quality management system in the automotive industry. Referring to customer requirements  

and customer specific requirements (“CSR”) TDK always has and will continue to have the  

policy of respecting individual agreements. Even if IATF 16949 may appear to support the  

acceptance of unilateral requirements, we hereby like to emphasize that

only requirements  

mutually agreed upon can and will be implemented in our Quality Management System.  

For clarification purposes we like to point out that obligations from IATF 16949 shall only  

become legally binding if individually agreed upon.
