Cautions and warnings
Transportation of hazardous substances
Any shipment of UltraCaps from customers, whatever the means of transportation, must be
provided with a declaration of hazardous substances and packed accordingly if the quantity of
electrolyte per item packed exceeds 0.5 liters. We will be glad to assist you in clarifying details.
For transportation on streets in Europe detailed regulations are given in ADR/RID / UN 1648
Acetonitrile. Customers outside the European Union should refer to their local regulations. For
transportation by sea freight please refer to IMDG regulations, for transportation by air freight
please refer to IATA regulations.
Waste regulations
UltraCaps must be disposed of according to the European waste catalog, code number 160213
"Waste from electrical and electronic products ". In addition, we request customers to consult their
refuse disposal facilities and local or national authorities.
Users outside of the European Union should refer to the waste disposal regulations of their own
particular country.
Warning
Do not put into fire!
Do not open the capacitor!
To avoid health and fire hazards, do not operate the capacitor beyond the voltage or
temperature limits given in the data sheet. Any excess may also result in a reduction of lifetime.

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 re-
quirements 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, EPCOS is either unfamiliar with individual customer applications or less familiar
with them than the customers themselves. For these reasons, it is always ultimately incum-
bent on the customer to check and decide whether an EPCOS product with the properties de-
scribed 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 passive electronic compon-
ents 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 applica-
tions requiring a very high level of operational safety and especially in customer applications
in which the malfunction or failure of a passive 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 a passive 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
Material Data Sheets on the Internet (www.epcos.com/material). Should you have 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 or-
der.
We also reserve the right to discontinue production and delivery of products. Con-
sequently, we cannot guarantee that all products named in this publication will always be
available.
6.
Unless otherwise agreed in individual contracts, all orders are subject to the current ver-
sion of the "General Terms of Delivery for Products and Services in the Electrical In-
dustry" published by the German Electrical and Electronics Industry Association
(ZVEI).
7.
The trade names EPCOS, CeraDiode, CSSP, PhaseCap, PhaseMod, SilverCap, SIFI, SIMID,
SIKOREL, SIOV, SIP5D, SIP5K, TOPcap, UltraCap, WindCap are trademarks registered or
pending in Europe and in other countries. Further information will be found on the Internet at
