Esd Precautions - IBM Storage Networking SAN128B-6 Installation, Service And User Manual

CAUTION:
Never leave tools inside the chassis.
CAUTION:
To protect the serial port from damage, keep the cover on the port when not in use.
CAUTION:
If you do not install a module or a power supply in a slot, you must keep the slot filler
panel in place. If you run the chassis with an uncovered slot, the system will overheat.
CAUTION:
Do not install the device in an environment where the operating ambient temperature
might exceed 40°C (104°F).

ESD precautions

Attention: Many of the field replaceable units (FRUs) are sensitive to electrostatic discharge (ESD), and
can potentially be damaged by improper handling. When working with any FRU, use correct ESD
precautions:
v Attach ground to the indicated area on the chassis
v Wear a wrist grounding strap connected to chassis ground (if the switch is plugged in) or a bench
ground.
Note: For safety reasons, the ESD wrist strap should contain a series 1 megaohm resistor.
v Store ESD-sensitive components in antistatic packaging
DANGER
CAUTION:
Before plugging a cable into any port, be sure to discharge the voltage stored on the cable
by touching the electrical contacts to ground surface.
CAUTION:
Static electricity can damage the chassis and other electronic devices. To avoid damage,
keep static-sensitive devices in their static-protective packages until you are ready to
install them.
Note: Wear a wrist grounding strap connected to the chassis ground (if the device is plugged in) or to a
bench ground.
