Safety Notes
ATCA-MF106 Installation and Use (6806800M62B) 19
Damage of the Product and Additional Devices and Modules
Incorrect installation or removal of additional devices or modules may damage the product or
the additional devices or modules.
Before installing or removing additional devices or modules, read the respective
documentation.
Operation
Board Damage
Board surface
High humidity and condensation on the board surface causes short circuits.
Do not operate the board outside the specified environmental limits. Make sure the board is
completely dry and there is no moisture on any surface before applying power.
Board Overheating and Board Damage
Operating the board without forced air cooling may lead to board overheating and thus board
damage.
Injuries or Short Circuits
Board or power supply
In case the ORing diodes of the board fail, the board may trigger a short circuit between input
line A and input line B so that line A remains powered even if it is disconnected from the power
supply circuit (and vice versa).
To avoid damage or injuries, always check that there is no more voltage on the line that has
been disconnected before continuing your work.
Hot Swap
Installing the board into or removing it from a powered system not supporting hot swap or
high availability causes board damage and data loss. Therefore, only install it in or remove it
from a powered system if the system itself supports hot swap or high availability and if the
system documentation explicitly includes guidelines.
