Electrostatic Discharge Damage Prevention and Warning
Electrostatic Discharge Damage Prevention
and Warning
It is possible to damage the HD equipment by electrostatic discharge (ESD)if personnel
improperly handle it when they unpack, install, remove, store, or ship it. This damage can
result in complete or intermittent failures.
To stop static electricity from damaging electronic equipment, an ESD-safe work area is
essential for service personnel. In addition, proper ESD protection is required whenever
anyone handles the HD equipment.
ELECTROSTATIC CAUTION
Risk of damage due to electrostatic discharge.
The HD product contains components susceptible to damage by
electrostatic discharge (ESD). Before unpacking, installing, or servicing
components of an HD shelf, take appropriate anti-static precautions.
Always attach an ESD strap to an ESD jack and place the other end of
the strap around your bare wrist. Failure to do so can cause irreparable
damage to the shelf and its components.
ESD Protective Clothing and Accessories
l Always wear an anti-static wrist or ankle strap, and verify that it is in direct contact
with your bare skin. Verify that it is tightened so that no gap exists between the skin
and the band.
Verify that your ESDwrist strap system meets the requirements of the
ANSI/ESD S1.1 standard. For safety, periodically check the resistance
value of the antistatic strap. The measurement should be from 1 to 10
megohms.
l Wear heel straps, toe straps, or bootstraps at standing workstations. Wear the straps
on both feet when you stand on conductive floor or dissipating floor mats.
l Wear ESD clothing, that is ESD coat, ESD shoes, ESD shoe straps, and ESD shoe
covers. Fully fasten your ESD clothing.
l Periodically test wrist straps and work surfaces to evaluate functionality and ensure
they are operating effectively.
