B.1.2 Anti-static Precautions
WARNING:
Failure to take ESD precautions during the installation of the PC400C
series may result in permanent damage to the PC400C series and
severe injury to the user.
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can cause serious damage to electronic components,
including the PC400C series. Dry climates are especially susceptible to ESD. It is
therefore critical that whenever the PC400C series is opened and any of the electrical
components are handled, the following anti-static precautions are strictly adhered to.
Wear an anti-static wristband: Wearing a simple anti-static wristband can
help to prevent ESD from damaging any electrical component.
Self-grounding: Before handling any electrical component, touch any
grounded conducting material. During the time the electrical component is
handled, frequently touch any conducting materials that are connected to the
ground.
Use an anti-static pad: When configuring or working with an electrical
component, place it on an antic-static pad. This reduces the possibility of ESD
damage.
Only handle the edges of the electrical component: When handling the
electrical component, hold the electrical component by its edges.
