Storage guideline
8.3.1
Recommended storage conditions
Temperature: 5 ~ 35 °C
Relative humidity: 45 ~ 75 %
•
Avoid leaving the IM393-XX IPM exposed to moisture or direct sunlight. Especially be careful during periods of
rain or snow.
•
Use storage areas where there is minimal temperature fluctuation.
Rapid temperature change can cause moisture condensation on the stored IM393-XX IPM. This can result in
lead oxidation or corrosion, leading to downgraded solderability.
•
Do not allow the IM393-XX IPM to be exposed to corrosive gasses or dusty conditions.
•
Do not allow excessive external forces or loads to be applied to the IM393-XX IPM while they are in storage.
