Surface mounted components (SMD) may exhibit a temporary increase in the DC spark-over voltage after the solder reflow
process. The components will recover within 24 hours. There is no quality defect nor change in protection levels during the
temporary change in DC spark-over voltage.
Cautions and warnings
Do not operate surge arresters in power supply networks, whose maximum operating voltage
exceeds the minimum spark-over voltage of the surge arresters.
Surge arresters may become hot in the event of longer periods of current stress (burn risk). In the
event of overload the connectors may fail or the component may be destroyed.
Surge arresters must be handled with care and must not be dropped.
Do not continue to use damaged surge arresters.
The shown SMD pad dimensions represent a safe way to mount the arrester and are a
recommendation of the manufacturer. During the reflow process it must be assured that no solder
material reduces the insulation distance between the pads below the arrester.
SMD surge arresters should be soldered within 24 month after shipment.
Display of ordering codes for TDK Electronics products
The ordering code for one and the same product can be represented differently in data sheets, data books,
other publications, on the company website, or in order-related documents such as shipping notes, order
confirmations and product labels. The varying representations of the ordering codes are due to
different processes employed and do not affect the specifications of the respective products.
