Electrostatic Discharge (ESD)
Many of the electronic components on the ARCHITECT System circuit boards are susceptible to
electrostatic discharge (ESD). Static discharge of as little as 100-200 volts can damage or destroy a
component. Always wear a wrist ground strap and discharge static electricity from you body prior to
touching and working on the instrument.
Static Hazard
Static protective procedures are used during the manufacture of PC boards. Replacement PC board
assemblies are also protected by use of static protective packaging, as well as boxed to prevent physical
damage. Assemblies that have failed and are returned for repair are also handled at the repair shop under
static protection procedures.
Handling Guidelines - Static sensitive Subassemblies
These guidelines assure protection against failures created by static:
•
Retain spare subassemblies in static-protective bags.
•
Use an approved static-protective kit, or ground strap shipped with the static sensitive subassembly
when available, whenever a static sensitive subassembly is removed from an instrument or protective
bag.
•
Replace the defective subassembly in the same protective bag to return for repair.
Continued use of the protective shipping boxes, both during shipping and storage, eliminates most failures
caused by physical damage.
