Another part would be a Battery..  Batteries generally have a 5 year shelf life.
Temperature and Humidity will have some play in storage.  Humidity indicators may be useful. If double bagged maybe a descant pac could be used.  Would not put it in the same bagged as the board.

        Subject:        [TN] Storage - Shelflife of populated PCBA's



Hello all

What is important for the storage of populated PCBA's?
Are electrolytic caps the only critical parts?
How often have they to be loaded?
Are there any standards dealing with this topic (storage of populated PCBA)?
Which are the critical components?

best regards

Siggi
