Modules with electrostatic-sensitive devices are identified by the following sticker:
Figure 2: ESD label
When you handle components fitted with ESDs, you must always observe the following
points:
● Switch off the system and remove the power plugs from the power outlets before
installing or removing components with ESDs.
● You must always discharge static build-up (e.g. by touching a grounded object) before
working with such components.
● Any devices or tools that are used must be free of electrostatic charge.
● Wear a suitable grounding cable that connects you to the external chassis of the system
unit.
● Always hold components with ESDs at the edges or at the points marked green (touch
points).
● Do not touch any connectors or conduction paths on an ESD.
● Place all the components on a pad which is free of electrostatic charge.
