EMS FIRECELL User Manual

System Design
All installation work should be carried out in accordance with the survey and system design.
It is recommended that the EMS FireCell Radio Hub, Radio Cluster Communicators and wireless devices
are located in accordance with the radio survey and system design. This should be established before
installation work commences.
Handling Precautions
General: Care should be taken when handling the EMS FireCell product range. Avoid dropping any of the
parts onto hard surfaces, as damage may occur to the case and internal circuitry.
ESD Precautions: EMS FireCell products include components that are susceptible to damage from
Electrostatic discharge (ESD). Permanent damage may be caused to these components through routine
handling, if precautions are not observed. To reduce the risk of damage from ESD, the following
precautions should be observed.
Minimise the handling of PCBs, which contain static sensitive components.
Where handling is unavoidable, always ensure that adequate earthing precautions have been taken. An
earthed wrist strap is recommended.
When storing or transporting a “loose” PCB, always use a container which has been designed and
manufactured with ESD protective properties.
Avoid placing static sensitive devices on any surfaces, which may increase the risk of a static discharge.
Packaging
All products should be kept in their packaging until they are due to be installed, to minimise the risk of
damage. Retain all packaging until the installation activities have been completed.
Should any product be found to be surplus to requirements, or require returning to EMS, the original
packaging should be used.
