12.4.2.4. Opening Shipments from and Packing Components for Return to
Teledyne Analytical Instruments Customer Service.
Packing materials such as bubble pack and Styrofoam pellets are extremely efficient generators of
static electric charges. To prevent damage from ESD, Teledyne Analytical Instruments ships all
electronic components and assemblies in properly sealed ant-ESD containers.
Static charges will build up on the outer surface of the anti-ESD container during shipping as the
packing materials vibrate and rub against each other. To prevent these static charges from
damaging the components or assemblies being shipped make sure that you:
• Always unpack shipments from Teledyne Analytical Instruments Customer Service by:
• Opening the outer shipping box away from the anti-ESD work area
• Carry the still sealed ant-ESD bag, tube or bin to the anti-ESD work area
• Follow steps 6 and 7 of Section 12.4.2.3 above when opening the anti-ESD container at
the work station
• Reserve the anti-ESD container or bag to use when packing electronic components or
assemblies to be returned to Teledyne Analytical Instruments
• Always pack electronic components and assemblies to be sent to Teledyne Analytical
Instruments Customer Service in anti-ESD bins, tubes or bags.
• Do not use pink-poly bags.
• If you do not already have an adequate supply of anti-ESD bags or containers
available, Teledyne Analytical Instruments’ Customer Service department) will supply
them (see Section 11.7 for contact information.
• Always follow steps 1 through 5 of Section 12.4.1.3
