6. When using these capacitors as across-the-line capacitor in the input filter for mains applications or as series connected with
an impedance to the mains the applicant must guarantee that the following conditions are fulfilled in any case (spikes and
surge voltages from the mains included).

EXAMPLE
C = 4 nF - 1600 V used for the voltage signal shown in next drawing.
UP-P = 1000 V; UP = 900 V; T1 = 12 µs; T2 = 64 µs; T3 = 4 µs
The ambient temperature is 80 °C. In case of failure, the oscillation is blocked.
Checking conditions:
1. The peak voltage UP = 900 V is lower than 1600 Vdc
2. The peak-to-peak voltage 1000 V is lower than 22 x 550 Vac = 1600 UP-P
3. The voltage pulse slope (dU/dt) = 1000 V/4 µs = 250 V/µs
This is lower than 8000 V/µs (see specific reference data for each version)
4. The dissipated power is 35 mW as calculated with fourier terms and typical tgd.
The temperature rise for Wmax. = 6.0 mm and pitch = 15 mm will be 35 mW/11 mW/°C = 3.2 °C
This is lower than 10 °C temperature rise at 80 °C, according graph.
5. Oscillation is blocked
