Place the sensor on a stable work surface.
Refer to the chapter that pertains to your sensor model.
Work on ESD-sensitive parts only at an approved static-safe station on a grounded
static dissipative work surface, for example, an ESD workbench or static
dissipative mat.
To remove and replace components in a sensor, follow these steps:
Remove all static-generating items from your work area.
Use a static dissipative work surface and wrist strap.
Note Disposable wrist straps, typically those included with an upgrade part, are
designed for one time use.
Attach the wrist strap to your wrist and to the terminal on the work surface. If you
are using a disposable wrist strap, connect the wrist strap directly to an unpainted
metal surface of the chassis.
