Note

The self-heating of a thermistor during operation depends on the load applied and the

applicable dissipation factor.

When loaded with maximum allowable current/power and the specified dissipation factor is

taken as a basis, the NTC thermistor may reach a mean temperature of up to 250 °C.

The heat developed during operation will also be dissipated through the lead wires. So the

contact areas, too, may become quite hot at maximum load.

When mounting NTC thermistors you have to ensure that there is an adequate distance

between the thermistor and all parts which are sensitive to heat or combustible.

Application notes

The following two important aspects for determining the right NTC inrush current limiter are

excerpted from the chapter "Application notes" in the "NTC Inrush Current Limiters,

Data book 2012". The complete application note can be downloaded from

www.epcos.com/ntcicl_appnotes.

1.4 Load derating

The power handling capability of an NTC thermistor cannot be fully utilized over the entire temper-

ature range. For circuit dimensioning the derating curve given below provides information on the

extent to which the current must be reduced at a certain ambient temperature (TA).

Derating curve for types S237, P11 and P13

TA= Ambient temperature > 25 °C

Tmax = 170 °C

Important notes at the end of this document.

TA= Ambient temperature > 65 °C

Tmax = 170 °C

The Imax values specified in the data sheets denote the maximum permissible continuous current

(DC or RMS values for sine-shaped AC) in the temperature range 0 °Cto65°C.

1.6 Maximum permissible capacitance

The currents during turn-on are much higher than the rated currents during continuous operation.

To test the effects of these current surges EPCOS uses the following standard procedure accord-

ing to IEC 60539-1:

Ctest Test capacitance [µF]

RSSeries resistance [RS=1Ω]

VNTC Voltage drop across the NTC under test [V]

The capacitor Ctest is discharged via the series resistor RSand the NTC inrush current limiter. The

load voltage is chosen such that the voltage applied to the thermistor at the start of discharge is

VNTC = 375 V (corresponds to (230 V + ∆V)  2).

1.1.2 Wave soldering

Temperature characteristic at component terminal with dual wave soldering

2 Robustness of terminations

The leads meet the requirements of IEC 60068-2-21. They may not be bent closer than 4 mm

from the solder joint on the thermistor body or from the point at which they leave the feed-

throughs. During bending, any mechanical stress at the outlet of the leads must be removed. The

bending radius should be at least 0.75 mm.

Tensile strength: Test Ua1:

Leads 0.50 < ∅ ≤0.80 mm = 10.0 N

0.80 < ∅ ≤1.25 mm = 20.0 N

Bending strength: Test Ub:

Two 90°-bends in opposite directions at a weight of 0.25 kg.

Torsional strength: Test Uc: severity 2

The lead is bent by 90°at a distance of 6 to 6.5 mm from the thermistor body.

The bending radius of the leads should be approx. 0.75 mm. Two torsions of

180°each (severity 2).

ICLs S237

Page 15 of 20Please read Cautions and warnings and

Important notes at the end of this document.

When subjecting leads to mechanical stress, the following should be observed:

Tensile stress on leads

During mounting and operation tensile forces on the leads are to be avoided.

Bending of leads

Bending of the leads directly on the thermistor body is not permissible.

A lead may be bent at a minimum distance of twice the wire's diameter +2 mm from the solder

joint on the thermistor body. During bending the wire must be mechanically relieved at its outlet.

The bending radius should be at least 0.75 mm.

Twisting of leads

The twisting (torsion) by 180°of a lead bent by 90°is permissible at 6 mm from the bottom of the

thermistor body.

3 Sealing and potting

When thermistors are sealed, potted or overmolded, there must be no mechanical stress caused

by thermal expansion during the production process (curing / overmolding process) and during

later operation. The upper category temperature of the thermistor must not be exceeded. Ensure

that the materials used (sealing / potting compound and plastic material) are chemically neutral.

4 Cleaning

If cleaning is necessary, mild cleaning agents such as ethyl alcohol and cleaning gasoline are

recommended. Cleaning agents based on water are not allowed. Ultrasonic cleaning methods are

permissible.

5 Storage

In order to maintain their solderability, thermistors must be stored in a non-corrosive atmosphere.

Humidity, temperature and container materials are critical factors.

The components should be left in the original packing. Touching the metallization of unsoldered

thermistors may change their soldering properties.

Storage temperature: 25 °Cupto45°C

Max. relative humidity (without condensation):

<95%, maximum 30 days per annum

Solder the thermistors listed in this data book after shipment from EPCOS within the time speci-

fied:

Leaded components: 24 months

Cautions and warnings

General

See "Important notes" on the last page.

Storage

Store thermistors only in original packaging. Do not open the package before storage.

Storage conditions in original packaging: storage temperature 25 °C ... +45 °C, relative

humidity ≤75% annual mean, maximum 95%, dew precipitation is inadmissible.

Avoid contamination of thermistors surface during storage, handling and processing.

Avoid storage of thermistor in harmful environments like corrosive gases (SOx, Cl etc).

Solder thermistors after shipment from EPCOS within the time specified:

Leaded components: 24 months

Handling

NTC inrush current limiters must not be dropped. Chip-offs must not be caused during handling

of NTC inrush current limiters.

Components must not be touched with bare hands. Gloves are recommended.

Avoid contamination of thermistor surface during handling.

In case of exposure of the NTC inrush current limiters to water, electrolytes or other aggressive

media, these media can penetrate the coating and reach the surface of the ceramic. Low-ohmic

or high-ohmic behavior may occur due to the formation of an electrolyte with metals

(silver/lead/tin from metallization or solder). Low-ohmic behavior is caused by electrochemical

migration, high-ohmic behavior by dissolving of the electrode. Ineither case, the functionality of

the NTC inrush current limiters can not be assured.

Washing processes may damage the product due to the possible static or cyclic mechanical

loads (e.g. ultrasonic cleaning). They may cause cracks to develop on the product and its parts,

which might lead to reduced reliability or lifetime.

Bending / twisting leads

A lead (wire) may be bent at a minimum distance of twice the wire’s diameter plus 4 mm from

the component head or housing. When bending ensure the wire is mechanically relieved at the

component head or housing. The bending radius should be at least 0.75 mm.

Twisting (torsion) by 180°of a lead bent by 90°is permissible at 6 mm from the bottom of the

thermistor body.

Soldering

Use resin-type flux or non-activated flux.

Insufficient preheating may cause ceramic cracks.

Rapid cooling by dipping in solvent is not recommended.

Complete removal of flux is recommended.

Page 17 of 20Please read Cautions and warnings and

Important notes at the end of this document.

Mounting

When NTC inrush current limiters are encapsulated with sealing material or overmolded with

plastic material, the precautions given in chapter “Mounting instructions”, “Sealing and potting”

must be observed.

Electrode must not be scratched before/during/after the mounting process.

Contacts and housings used for assembly with thermistor have to be clean before mounting.

During operation, the inrush current limiters surface temperature can be very high. Ensure that

adjacent components are placed at a sufficient distance from the thermistor to allow for proper

cooling of the NTC inrush current limiters.

Ensure that adjacent materials are designed for operation at temperatures comparable to the

surface temperature of the thermistor. Be sure that surrounding parts and materials can

withstand this temperature.

Make sure that inrush current limiters are adequately ventilated to avoid overheating.

Avoid contamination of thermistor surface during processing.

Operation

Use NTC inrush current limiters only within the specified operating temperature range.

Use NTC inrush current limiters only within the specified voltage and current ranges.

Environmental conditions must not harm the NTC inrush current limiters. Use NTC inrush

current limiters only in normal atmospheric conditions.

Contact of NTC inrush current limiters with any liquids and solvents should be prevented. It

must be ensured that no water enters the NTC inrush current limiters (e.g. through plug

terminals). For measurement purposes (checking the specified resistance vs. temperature), the

component must not be immersed in water but in suitable liquids (e.g. Galden).

In case of exposure of the NTC inrush current limiters to water, electrolytes or other aggressive

media, these media can penetrate the coating and reach the surface of the ceramic. Low-ohmic

or high-ohmic behavior may occur due to the formation of an electrolyte with metals

(silver/lead/tin from metallization or solder). Low-ohmic behavior is caused by electrochemical

migration, high-ohmic behavior by dissolving of the electrode. In either case, the functionality of

the NTC inrush current limiters can not be assured.

Be sure to provide an appropriate fail-safe function to prevent secondary product damage

caused by malfunction (e.g. use a metal oxide varistor for limitation of overvoltage condition).

This listing does not claim to be complete, but merely reflects the experience of EPCOS AG.

Important notes at the end of this document.

The following applies to all products named in this publication:

1. Some parts of this publication contain statements about the suitability of our products for

certain areas of application. These statements are based on our knowledge of typical re-

quirements that are often placed on our products in the areas of application concerned. We

nevertheless expressly point out that such statements cannot be regarded as binding

statements about the suitability of our products for a particular customer application.

As a rule, EPCOS is either unfamiliar with individual customer applications or less familiar

with them than the customers themselves. For these reasons, it is always ultimately incum-

bent on the customer to check and decide whether an EPCOS product with the properties de-

scribed in the product specification is suitable for use in a particular customer application.

2. We also point out that in individual cases, a malfunction of electronic components or

failure before the end of their usual service life cannot be completely ruled out in the

current state of the art, even if they are operated as specified. In customer applications

requiring a very high level of operational safety and especially in customer applications in

which the malfunction or failure of an electronic component could endanger human life or

health (e.g. in accident prevention or lifesaving systems), it must therefore be ensured by

means of suitable design of the customer application or other action taken by the customer

(e.g. installation of protective circuitry or redundancy) that no injury or damage is sustained by

third parties in the event of malfunction or failure of an electronic component.

3. The warnings, cautions and product-specific notes must be observed.

4. In order to satisfy certain technical requirements, some of the products described in this

publication may contain substances subject to restrictions in certain jurisdictions (e.g.

because they are classed as hazardous). Useful information on this will be found in our Ma-

terial Data Sheets on the Internet (www.epcos.com/material). Should you have any more de-

tailed questions, please contact our sales offices.

5. We constantly strive to improve our products. Consequently, the products described in this

publication may change from time to time. The same is true of the corresponding product

specifications. Please check therefore to what extent product descriptions and specifications

contained in this publication are still applicable before or when you place an order. We also

reserve the right to discontinue production and delivery of products. Consequently, we

cannot guarantee that all products named in this publication will always be available. The

aforementioned does not apply in the case of individual agreements deviating from the fore-

going for customer-specific products.

6. Unless otherwise agreed in individual contracts, all orders are subject to the current ver-

sion of the "General Terms of Delivery for Products and Services in the Electrical In-

dustry" published by the German Electrical and Electronics Industry Association

(ZVEI).
