HANDLING INSTRUCTIONS OF UU CORE BAND
When using this product, read and follow the handling instructions
below carefully to ensure the safety of the products that you
design.
ASSEMBLING
•
Certain parts of the ferrite core tightening band (hereinafter
referred to as the "band") can be sharp. Be careful when
handling these parts.
Use protective equipment such as gloves if necessary.
•
When putting a band and ferrite core together, make sure that
the ferrite core matches the band’s size, and set the ferrite core
in the correct position.
•
To tighten the band, use a cross point screwdriver of the correct
size equipped with a torque reading mechanism.
•
The torque for tightening the band must be determined and
controlled according to the band’s strength, the ferrite core’s
size, and the usage environment.
•
Take special care not to overtighten the band as this could
damage the ferrite core and/or the band.
•
Conversely, if the tightening torque is too low, you will not be
able to secure the ferrite core properly. Take special care to
avoid this as this can cause the ferrite core to become displaced,
fall off, drop, or affect the ferrite core’s characteristics.
USAGE ENVIRONMENT
•
Depending on the usage environment, the band may become
damaged or its strength may be compromised, reducing the
strength at which it can secure the ferrite core.
When using the band, make sure that it is resistant to the
intended usage environment.
•
The band is constructed in such a way that it can become
extended or damaged when subjected to shocks, excessive
loads, vibrations, temperature variations, or high and low
temperatures, causing the ferrite core to become displaced, fall
off, or drop.
Make sure that the strength of the band itself and the strength at
which it secures the ferrite core can be maintained in the
intended usage environment.
•
The band is made of metal, which means it can be affected by
water, chemicals and other elements, which may in turn lead to
corrosion.
When using the band, make sure that it is resistant to the
intended usage environment.
OTHER PRECAUTIONS
•
The band is essentially a thin metal plate. Take special care to
avoid accidents because its ends can behave like the tip of a
whip.
Persons handling the band must take special care to protect
themselves as well as others from getting injured.
•
Never re-work the band or replace any parts becomes such
actions can compromise the band’s strength and lead to
problems.
•
Do not reuse a band that you have used once before as it may
not have sufficient strength.
•
Do not use the bands for purposes other than to secure ferrite
cores.
The bands are not edible. Keep them out of the reach of
children.
• All specifications are subject to change without notice.
