7. Precautions
①Storage conditions
Please follow the conditions below.
・Before opened: Temperature 5 ～ 30 ℃, Relative humidity less than 60 %
・After opened: Temperature 5 ～ 30 ℃, Relative humidity less than 60 % (Please apply soldering within 1 week.)
・Avoid exposing to air with corrosive gas.
If exposed, electrode surface would be damaged, which may affect soldering.
②Usage conditions
The products are not designed for the use under any of the following conditions.
Please confirm their performance and reliability well enough if you use under any of the following conditions;
・ In a place with a lot of moisture, dew condensation, briny air, and corrosive gas.
(Cl, H2S, NH3, SO2, NOX, etc.)
・Under the direct sunlight, outdoor exposure, and in a dusty place.
・In water, oil, medical fluid, and organic solvent.
③Heat radiation
If the forward current (IF) is applied to single-state module at 640 mA, there is a risk of damaging module
or emitting smoke.
Equip with specified heat radiator, and avoid heat stuffed inside the module.
Applying thermal conductive sheet or grease between module and heat radiator enables heat to radiate effectively.
④Installation
Material of board is alumina ceramic. If installed inappropriately, trouble of no radiation may occur due to
board crack. Please take particular notice of install method.
Further information on installation, refer to the following cautions.
・Apply ether screws or adhesives, or both of them when installed to heat radiator.
In case of applying adhesive only, check the effectiveness before fixing.
In case of screw, apply thread locker in order to prevent loosening.
If LED comes off from the heat radiator, unusual temperature rise entails hazardous phenomena including
device deterioration, coming off of solder at leads, and emitting smoke.
・Refer to recommended dimensions when installing with screws.
・Screw torque: Within 0.2 Nｍ
If it is inefficient to tighten screws, apply locker to prevent loosening.
・It is recommended to apply screws which use low corrosive materials
such as Stainless steel.
Avoid applying flat-head screws, which cause board crack
due to applying stress to screw holes.
・Avoid convexly uneven boards.
Those convex boards are subject to crack when tightening screws.
・It is recommended to apply thermal conductive sheet or grease with adhesiveness
and heat radiating-adhesives, because of thermal and mechanical combination
between module and heat radiator.
However, depending on their thickness, board crack may be entailed by warped board, which is
caused when tightening screws. So please check your actual conditions carefully as for the screw torque.

⑤Module surface strength
Module surface is subject to mechanical stress. Applying stress to surface of modules results in damage on resin,
and internal failure.
⑥Connecting method
・In case of solder connecting method, follow the conditions mentioned below to prevent
from alloy formation by terminal gold melted into solder.
Soldering iron with thermo controller (tip temperature 380 ℃), within 10 seconds per one place.
・Secure the solderwettability on whole solder pad and leads.
・In soldering, put the ceramic board on materials whose conductivity is poor enough
not to radiate heat of soldering.
・Avoid touching yellow phosphor with soldering iron.
・This product is not designed for reflow and flow soldering.
・Avoid such lead arrangement as applying stress to solder-applied area.
⑦Static electricity
This product is subject to static electricity, so take measures to cope with it.
Install circuit protection device to drive circuit, if necessary.
⑧Drive method
・Any reverse voltage cannot be applied to LEDs when they are in operation or not.
Design a circuit so that any flow of reverse or forward voltage can not be applied to LEDs
when they are out of operation.
・There is a possibility of generating reverse voltage if ambient light is irradiated trough to LEDs off operation.
This derives from reverse current caused by electromotive force generated by ambient light.
Built in electromotive force-protection diodes or protect by insulating power supply with switch or transistor.
・Module is composed of LEDs connected in both series and parallel.
Constant voltage power supply runs off more than specified current amount due to lowered VF
caused by temperature rise.
Constant current power supply is recommended to drive.
⑨Cleaning
Avoid cleaning, since silicone resin is eroded by cleaning.
⑩Color-tone variation
Chromaticity of this product is monitored by integrating sphere right after the operation.
Chromaticity varies depending on measuring method, light spread condition, or ambient temperature.
Please verify your actual conditions before use.
⑪Safety
・Looking directly at LEDs for a long time may result in hurt your eyes.
・In case that excess current (over ratings) are supplied to the device, hazardous phenomena including abnormal
heat generation, emitting smoke, or catching fire can be caused.
Take appropriate measures to excess current and voltage.
・In case of solder connecting method, there is a possibility of fatigue failure by heat.
Please fix the leads in such case to protect from short circuit or leakage of electricity caused by contact.
・Please confirm the safety standards or regulations of application devices.

⑫Other cautions
Guarantee covers the compliance to the quality standards mentioned in the Specifications,
however it does not cover the compatibility with application of the end-use, including assembly
and usage environment.
In case any quality problems occurred in the application of end-use, details will be separately discussed
and determined between the parties hereto.
