  • Page 27: Esd Precautions

    ESD Precautions Electrostatic discharge (ESD) is generated by two objects with different electrical charges coming into contact with each other. An electrical discharge is created to neutralize this difference, which can damage electronic com ponents and printed circuit boards. The following measures are generally suffi cient to neutralize this difference before contact is made to protect your equipment from ESD: Use a grounded wrist strap designed to prevent static discharge.
  • Page 28: Operating Precautions

    UPER ORKSTATION 5035G-T User's Manual Operating Precautions Care must be taken to assure that the chassis cover is in place when the 5035G-T is operating to assure proper cooling. Out of warranty damage to the 5035G-T system can occur if this practice is not strictly followed. Figure 4-1.
