Handling Precautions (For Anti-Static Measures) - NEC express5800 A2010b User Manual

Handling precautions
The server contains electronic components sensitive to static electricity. Observe the following precautions to
avoid failures caused by static electricity when installing or removing any optional devices.
•
Wear a wrist strap (an arm belt or anti-static glove)
Wear a wrist strap on your wrist and provide earthing before starting work. If no wrist strap is available,
discharge static electricity from your body by touching an unpainted metal part of the chassis which is
grounded. Touch a metal part regularly when working with the server to discharge static electricity.
•
Select a suitable work space
― Work with the server on the anti-static or concrete floor.
― When you work with the server on a carpet where static electricity is likely to be generated, be sure to
take anti-static measures beforehand.
•
Use a work table
Place the server on an anti-static mat to work with.
•
Clothing
― Do not wear wool or synthetic clothes.
― Wear anti-static shoes.
― Take off any jewels (a ring, bracelet, or wrist watch) before working with the server.
•
Handling of components
― Keep any component in an anti-static bag until you actually install it to the server.
― Hold any component by its edge to avoid touching any terminals or parts.
― To store or carry any component, place it in an anti-static bag.
•
Handling of cable
When connecting a cable (e.g., LAN cable), static electricity may also be charged due to friction against
floor. Connecting a charged cable with an I/O device may cause damage to the device. It is recommended
to discharge static electricity before connecting a cable by using ionizer or the like. Consult with your sales
representative for apparatus to discharge static electricity.
•
Installing/remoing optional devices
― To avoid electric hazard and malfunction of the device, be sure to turn off the POWER switch of the
server and unplug the power cord from outlet before starting work, except for hot-swappable devices.
― Optional devices also contain electronic components sensitive to static electricity. To avoid malfunction
of the device, discharge static electricity from your body by an adequate anti-static measures (e.g.,
wear a wrist strap). To use a wrist strap, connect an earth wire to the place where grounded.
