Warning letter on counterfeit SF/E series to our customers

Recently we have confirmed that counterfeit NEC SCHOTT's thermal fuse SF type was sold in China market.  To avoid inadvertent purchase of the counterfeit products, we issue the warning letter attached for our customers.  Therefore, we would like you to send it to all our customers who purchase our SF type.  If you sell our products through distributors, please arrange the letter for all the end customers as well.  We also prepared Chinese version, please contact us if customers need.  Additionally we will insert the information in our website in early August.

We have been under investigation and taking rapid action to counterfeiting manufactures and sales companies.  We have already taken rapid action to a counterfeit fuse sales company in Shanghai, China in this May.  For further our activity, if your customers have any information on counterfeit fuses, please inform us.

Thank you very much for your understanding and cooperation. 

Yours sincerely,
