Transport and Storage
At times of transport and storage, protect Safety I/O-module against inadmissible exposure
such as mechanical stress, temperature, humidity and/or aggressive atmospheres. Transport
and store Safety I/O-module in its original packaging if possible.
Verify that the contacts are neither soiled nor damaged when consigning the unit to stock or
re-packaging it. Keep and transport Safety I/O-module in a container/packaging ensuring elec-
trostatic discharge (ESD) compliance. Some parts of the units are sensitive to ESD and may be
damaged if handled inappropriately. Thus, best transport practice is to place open assemblies
in statically shielded transport bags with a metal coating which avoid contamination by
amines, amides or silicone. When putting Safety I/O-module into service and performing any
maintenance, you should also take the appropriate precautions against electrostatic discharge.
CAUTION
Electrostatic discharge
Destruction of or damage to the unit.
Transport and store Safety I/O-module in its original packaging.
Ensure that the ambient conditions are as specified at all times during
transport and storage.
Handle Safety I/O-module in a well-earthed environment (persons, place of
work, packaging).
Do not touch electrically conductive parts such as data contacts. Some of
the electronic components may be destroyed if exposed to electrostatic dis-
charge.
