2.6 The unit is sensitive to ESD

ESD (electrostatic discharge) is the transfer of electrical static charge between two

bodies at different potentials, either through direct contact or through an induced

electrical field. When handling parts or their containers, personnel not grounded

may potentially transfer high static charges. This discharge may destroy sensitive

electronics.

Safe handling

Use one of the following alternatives:

Product manual - IRB 920

3HAC075721-001 Revision: C

Use a wrist strap.

Wrist straps must be tested frequently to ensure that they are not damaged

and are operating correctly.

Use an ESD protective floor mat.

The mat must be grounded through a current-limiting resistor.

Use a dissipative table mat.

The mat should provide a controlled discharge of static voltages and must

be grounded.
