2.13 Precautionary measures when handling components
which can be destroyed by electrostatic discharge
(ESDS)
The drive units contain components and parts which can be destroyed by
electrostatic discharge. Please observe the following when working with
electronic modules and boards:
•
Electronic modules and boards should only be touched if absolutely
necessary.
•
Before touching an electronic module/board, the human body must
first be electrically discharged.
•
Electronic modules/boards may not come into contact with highly-
insulating materials (e.g. plastic foils, insulating work surfaces, articles
of clothing manufactured from man-made fiber).
•
Electronic modules/boards may only be placed on conductive sur-
faces.
•
The soldering iron tip must be grounded when carrying-out soldering
work on electronic modules/boards.
•
Electronic modules/boards and components may only be stored and
shipped in conductive packaging (e.g. metalized plastic or metal con-
tainers).
•
If the packaging is not conductive, electronic modules/boards must be
wrapped in a conductive material. In this case, e.g. conductive foam
rubber or household aluminum foil can be used.
The necessary ESDS protective measures are clearly shown in the fol-
