Equipment Damage Due To Electric Fields Or Electrostatic Discharge - Siemens SIMOTICS L-1FN3 Configuration Manual

Fundamental safety instructions

1.2 Equipment damage due to electric fields or electrostatic discharge

Burn injuries caused by hot surfaces
In operation, the motor can reach high temperatures, which can cause burns if touched.
• Mount the motor so that it is not accessible in operation.
Measures when maintenance is required:
• Allow the motor to cool down before starting any work.
• Use the appropriate personnel protection equipment, e.g. gloves.
1.2 Equipment damage due to electric fields or electrostatic discharge
Electrostatic sensitive devices (ESD) are individual components, integrated circuits, modules
or devices that may be damaged by either electric fields or electrostatic discharge.
NOTICE
Equipment damage due to electric fields or electrostatic discharge
Electric fields or electrostatic discharge can cause malfunctions through damaged
individual components, integrated circuits, modules or devices.
• Only pack, store, transport and send electronic components, modules or devices in their
