    100% of our products are controlled before release, and we keep all the information on each batch for at least 10 years. 

    SIC-SAFCO products are designed to give to their users a total satisfaction in terms of performance and reliability. Thus, we are engaged in a quality process, not only inside SIC-SAFCO, but also with all our suppliers and customers. We are ISO 9001, but we still head for improving our processes.

    RoHS

    European directive 2002/95/EC
    Restriction of the use of certain hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment

    Every product with restriction use (mercury, cadmium, hexavalent chromium, polybrominated flame retardants) is not present in SIC-SAFCO capacitors, except lead contained in solder coating of some capacitor ranges, manufactured before January 1st 2006 :

    - Screw terminals capacitors (FELSIC ranges) are completely in accordance with the directive.

    - New radial non cylindrical range CUBISIC is completely in accordance with the directive.

    - Axial capacitors (PRORELSIC, PROMISIC, RELSIC, SICAL) are in accordance with the directive since January 2000. At this date solder coating was changed into pure tin coating.

    - Radial capacitors with snap-in pins (SNAPSIC range) are in accordance with the directive since September 1st2005 (Ø 25, 35 and 40) or since January 1st 2006 (Ø 22, 30, 45). Pins are coated with pure tin coating.

    - Radial capacitors with straight pins (CI-FRS range) or with wires (ALSIC ranges) are in accordance with the directive since September 1st 2005. Terminals are coated with pure tin coating.

    We advise to follow pure tin soldering recommendations : temperature bath 260 – 265°C, 2 s, ≥ 2 mm from capacitor body without flux, according to IEC 60 068-2-54 (test Ta method 1).

    Article codes are unchanged. But capacitors where lead is prescribed, have now special code number.

    REACH : European directive 1907/2006/EC

    concerning the Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemicals

    Capacitors SIC-SAFCO do not contain any carcinogen, mutagen and substance toxic for reproduction in accordance with REACH directive target.

    Electrolytes used in SIC-SAFCO capacitors are 100% manufactured and checked by SIC-SAFCO. 

    Today, each SIC-SAFCO capacitor is answering to REACH directive.
