ESD Guidelines
ESD Guidelines
Observe these ESD guidelines whenever you handle electronic components.
•
Obtain an electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection kit and follow the directions that
come with the kit. Ensure that your ESD wriststrap has a built-in series resistor
and that the kit includes an antistatic table mat.
You can purchase an ESD protection kit from HP or from a local electronics store.
•
Before you unpack a replacement component, place the shipping container on an
antistatic table mat and attach the grounding clip on your wriststrap to the mat.
•
When you unpack a component, do not cut into the ESD protective bag
surrounding the component. The protective bag protects the component and can
be reused for storing a component.
•
Before you move a component from an antistatic table mat, attach the grounding
clip on your ESD wriststrap to any unpainted metal surface on the component
frame.
•
Before you bring a component in contact with a SWAN 2 concentrator rack, attach
the grounding clip on your ESD wriststrap to any unpainted metal surface on the
rack frame.
•
When you remove a component from a SWAN 2 concentrator rack, first pull the
component partway out of the slot and then attach the grounding clip on your ESD
wriststrap to any unpainted metal surface on the rack frame.
•
Store components that require ESD protection in ESD protective bags.
