Electrostatic Discharge Awareness
Electrostatic
Precautions
Electronic controls conta
sensitive parts. Observe the
following precautions to prevent damage to these parts:
• Discharge body static before handling the control (with power to
the control turned off, contact a grounded surface and maintain
contact while handling the control).
• Avoid all plastic, vinyl, and Styrofoam (except antistatic
versions) around printed circuit boards.
• Do not touch the components or conductors on a printed circuit
board with your hands or with conductive devices.
To prevent damage to electronic components caused by improper
handling, read and observe the precautions in Woodward manual
82715
, Guide for Handling and Protection of Electronic Controls,
Printed Circuit Boards, and Modules.
Follow these precautions when working with or near the control.
1. Avoid the build-up of static electricity on your body by not wearing clothing made of synthetic
materials. Wear cotton or cotton-blend materials as much as possible because these do not store
static electric charges as much as synthetics.
2. Do not remove the printed circuit board (PCB) from the control cabinet unless absolutely necessary.
If you must remove the PCB from the control cabinet, follow these precautions:
• Do not touch any part of the PCB except the edges.
• Do not touch the electrical conductors, the connectors, or the components with conductive
devices or with your hands.
• When replacing a PCB, keep the new PCB in the plastic antistatic protective bag it comes in
until you are ready to install it. Immediately after removing the old PCB from the control cabinet,
place it in the antistatic protective bag.
