Instructions:

1. Mounting:

   • Ensure the capacitor is mounted on a flat surface.
   • Insert the leads into the PCB holes and solder them securely.
   • Trim the leads to a length of approximately 1-2 mm after soldering.

2. Polarity:

   • This is an electrolytic capacitor and has polarity. The longer lead is the positive terminal, and the shorter lead is the negative terminal.
   • Markings on the capacitor body will also indicate the negative side with a stripe or minus sign.

3. Soldering:

   • Use a soldering iron with a temperature setting of 300°C to 350°C.
   • Apply solder to the joints for about 2-3 seconds to ensure a good connection without overheating the capacitor.

4. Handling:

   • Handle the capacitor with care to avoid mechanical stress on the leads and body.
   • Do not expose the capacitor to excessive humidity or corrosive environments.

5. Storage:

   • Store in a dry, cool place away from direct sunlight.
   • Use within the recommended shelf life to ensure optimal performance.

6. Testing:

   • Before installation, test the capacitor using a multimeter to verify its capacitance and leakage current.
   • Ensure the voltage applied during testing does not exceed the rated voltage.

7. Safety:

   • Always discharge the capacitor before handling or testing to avoid electric shock.
   • Follow all safety guidelines and precautions when working with electrical components.
