Additional precautions for modules without housings
Note the following measures that have to be taken for modules that are not protected against
accidental contact:
•
Touch electrostatical sensitive devices only
- if you wear a wristband complying with ESD specifications or
- if you use special ESD footwear or ground straps when walking on an ESD floor.
•
Persons working on electronic devices should first discharge their bodies by touching grounded
metallic parts (e.g. bare metal parts of switchgear cabinets, water pipes, etc.).
•
Protect the modules against contact with chargeable and highly insulating materials, such as
plastic foils, insulating table tops or clothes made of plastic fibres.
•
Place electrostatic sensitive devices only on conductive surfaces:
- Tables with ESD surface
- Conductive ESD foam plastic (ESD foam plastic is mostly coloured black)
- ESD bags
•
Avoid direct contact of electrostatic sensitive devices with visual display units, monitors or TV
sets (minimum distance to screen > 10 cm).
