2.3.1
Storage and Contact Reliability of Host-side Connector
For the host-side connectors used in the comX communication modules
(Samtec Types SFC-115-T2-L-D-A-K-TR and SFC-125-T2-L-D-A-K-TR),
the folloiwing applies concerning storage stability and long-term immunity
against contact failure:
1.
Hilscher only uses highly reliable connectors in the comX modules. The
supplier of the connector warrants a minimum expected storage time of
5 years without any loss of spring tension when the connectors have
been mounted. According to its general terms and conditions, Hilscher
assures this warranted storage time to you.
2.
In order to preserve the spring tension and to improve the immunity
against contact failure of the host-side connectors, the following storage
conditions are recommended:
o
Storage in dry package such as ESD bags which additionally
can be heat-sealed.
o
Alternatively: Controlled storage at a temperature of max.
25°C and 50% relative humidity.
