1 For cleaning
(11 Solvent cleaning : Solvent temperature 45C or less
Immersion for 3 min or less
(21 Ultrasonic cleaning : The effect to device by ultrasonic cleaning differs
by cleaning bath size, ultrasonic power
output, cleaning time, PCB size or device mounting
condition etc. Please test it in actual using condition
and confirm that doesnt occur any defect before starting
the ultrasonic cleaning.
(31 Applicable

solvent : Ethyl alcohol, Methyl alcohol, Isopropyl alcohol

In case when the other solvent is used, there are cases that
the packaging resin is eroded. Please use the other solvent
after thorough confirmation is performed in actual using condition.

2. The LED used in the Photocoupler generally decreases the light emission power
by operation. In case of long operation time, please design the circuit with considering
the degradation of the light emission power of the LED. (50%/5yearsl

(3) Other precautions

An infrared lamp used to heat up for soldering
may cause a localized
