MIL-DTL-3965H
5. PACKAGING
5.1 Packaging. For acquisition purposes, the packaging requirements shall be as specified in the contract or order
*
(see 6.2). When packaging of materiel is to be performed by DoD or in-house contractor personnel, these personnel
need to contact the responsible packaging activity to ascertain packaging requirements. Packaging requirements are
maintained by the Inventory Control Point's packaging activities within the Military Service or Defense Agency, or
within the military service's system commands. Packaging data retrieval is available from the managing Military
Department's or Defense Agency's automated packaging files, CD-ROM products, or by contacting the responsible
packaging activity.
6. NOTES
(This section contains information of a general or explanatory nature that may be helpful, but is not mandatory.)
6.1 Intended use. These capacitors are primarily intended for use in filter, by-pass, and energy storage
*
applications requiring large capacitance values, but where close tolerances are not an important factor and where the
alternating current (ac) component of voltage is small compared to the direct current (dc) rated voltage. These
capacitors are military unique due to the fact that they must be able to operate satisfactorily in military systems at
extreme temperatures of (-55°C to +125°C). These capacitors also are verified under a qualification system.
Commercial components are not designed to withstand these military environmental conditions.
6.2 Acquisition documents. Acquisition documents should specify the following:
a.
Title, number, and date of this specification.
b.
Title, number, and date of the applicable specification sheet, and the complete type designation (see 1.2.1
and 3.1).
c.
Required levels of preservation and packing, and special marking (see section 5).
6.3 Qualification. With respect to products requiring qualification, awards will be made only for products that are,
*
at the time of award of contract, qualified for inclusion in Qualified Products List whether or not such products have
actually been so listed by that date. The attention of the contractors is called to these requirements, and
manufacturers are urged to arrange to have the products that they propose to offer to the Federal Government tested
for qualification in order that they may be eligible to be awarded contracts or orders for the products covered by this
specification. Information pertaining to qualification of products may be obtained from the Defense Supply Center,
Columbus, ATTN: DSCC-VQP, PO Box 3990, Columbus, OH 43216-5000, or by e-mail to vqp.chief@dla.mil.
6.4 Application information.
6.4.1 Life degradation. The life of these capacitors is primarily dependent upon voltage and temperature. When
increased life is desired, capacitors may be further derated from the conditions specified in the specification. Under
no condition should these capacitors be subjected to voltages above the derated voltage at the maximum rated
temperature.
