KEMET's E-series aluminum electrolytic capacitors should not be stored in high temperatures or where there is a high level of humidity.

The suitable storage condition for KEMET's E-series aluminum electrolytic capacitors is +5 to +35ºC and less than 75% in relative

humidity.

KEMET's E-series aluminum electrolytic capacitors should not be stored in damp conditions such as water, saltwater spray or oil spray.

KEMET's E-series aluminum electrolytic capacitors should not be stored in an environment full of hazardous gas (hydrogen sulphide ,

sulphurous acid gas, nitrous acid, chlorine gas, ammonium, etc.)

KEMET's E-series aluminum electrolytic capacitors should not be stored under exposure to ozone, ultraviolet rays or radiation.

If a capacitor has been stored for more than 18 months under these conditions and it shows increased leakage current, then a

treatment by voltage application is recommended.

Re-age (Reforming) Procedure

Apply the rated voltage to the capacitor at room temperature for a period of one hour, or until the leakage current has fallen to a steady

valuebelowthespecifiedlimit.Duringre-agingamaximumchargingcurrentoftwicethespecifiedleakagecurrentor5mA(whichever

is greater) is suggested.
