Safety instructions for electromagnetic fields (EMF)
Danger to life from electromagnetic fields
Electromagnetic fields (EMF) are generated by the operation of electrical power equipment
such as transformers, inverters or motors.
People with pacemakers or implants are at a special risk in the immediate vicinity of these
devices/systems.
• Ensure that the persons involved are the necessary distance away (minimum 2 m).
1.3
Handling electrostatic sensitive devices (ESD)
Electrostatic sensitive devices (ESDs) are individual components, integrated circuits,
modules or devices that may be damaged by either electrostatic fields or electrostatic
discharge.
NOTICE
Damage caused by electric fields or electrostatic discharge
Electric fields or electrostatic discharge can result in malfunctions as a result of damaged
individual parts, integrated circuits, modules or devices.
• Only pack, store, transport and send electronic components, modules or devices in their
• Only touch components, modules and devices if you are first grounded by applying one
• Only place electronic components, modules or devices on conductive surfaces (table

of the following measures:
– Wearing an ESD wrist strap
– Wearing ESD shoes or ESD grounding straps in ESD areas with conductive flooring
with ESD surface, conductive ESD foam, ESD packaging, ESD transport container).
