ESD guidelines
NOTICE
Electrostatic discharge
Electronic modules contain components that can be destroyed by electrostatic discharge.
These modules can be easily destroyed by improper handling.
To protect your equipment against damage, follow the instructions given below.
●
Never touch electronic modules unless absolutely necessary in the course of
maintenance and repair procedures.
●
If the modules have to be touched, the body of the person concerned must be
electrostatically discharged immediately beforehand and be grounded.
●
Electronic modules should not come into contact with electrically insulating materials
(e.g. plastic foil, plastic parts, insulating table supports, or clothing made of synthetic
fibers).
●
Always place the modules on conductive bases.
●
Always store and transport electronic modules or components in conductive packaging
(e.g. metallized plastic or metal containers).
NOTICE
Use conductive packaging material
Electronic modules must be stored, transported, and dispatched in conductive
packaging.
Electronic modules that are not correctly stored, transported, or dispatched can be
damaged.
Pack electronic modules in appropriate conductive packaging (e.g. foam rubber or
aluminum foil).
