Precaution for Use
● Storage
Please do not open the moisture barrier bag (MBB) more than one week. This may cause the
leads of LED discoloration. We recommend storing ProLight’s LEDs in a dry box after opening
the MBB. The recommended storage conditions are temperature 5 to 30°C and humidity less
than 40% RH. It is also recommended to return the LEDs to the MBB and to reseal the MBB.
● The slug is is not electrically neutral. Therefore, we recommend to isolate the heat sink.
● The slug is to be soldered. If not, please use the heat conductive adhesive.
● Any mechanical force or any excess vibration shall not be accepted to apply during cooling
process to normal temperature after soldering.
● Please avoid rapid cooling after soldering.
● Components should not be mounted on warped direction of PCB.
● Repairing should not be done after the LEDs have been soldered. When repairing is unavoidable,
a heat plate should be used. It should be confirmed beforehand whether the characteristics of
the LEDs will or will not be damaged by repairing.
● This device should not be used in any type of fluid such as water, oil, organic solvent and etc.
When cleaning is required, isopropyl alcohol should be used.
● When the LEDs are illuminating, operating current should be decide after considering the
package maximum temperature.
● The appearance, specifications and flux bin of the product may be modified for improvement
without notice. Please refer to the below website for the latest datasheets.

Handling of Silicone Lens LEDs
Notes for handling of silicone lens LEDs
● Please do not use a force of over 3kgf impact or pressure on the silicone lens,
otherwise it will cause a catastrophic failure.
● The LEDs should only be picked up by making contact with the sides of the LED body.
● Avoid touching the silicone lens especially by sharp tools such as Tweezers.
● Avoid leaving fingerprints on the silicone lens.
● Please store the LEDs away from dusty areas or seal the product against dust.
● When populating boards in SMT production, there are basically no restrictions
regarding the form of the pick and place nozzle, except that mechanical pressure
on the silicone lens must be prevented.
● Please do not mold over the silicone lens with another resin. (epoxy, urethane, etc)
