•
Maintain the relative humidity of the room between 40 and 60 percent.
•
To avoid damage to equipment, do not allow the humidity to increase to the level
where condensation would appear on surfaces.
Clothing
When working with the PSAX system, avoid wearing clothing made from wool or
synthetic materials. Try to minimize contact between clothing and electronic devices.
Handling Chassis, Modules, and Components
Follow these guidelines for proper installation and handling of the PSAX system
hardware to minimize ESD damage:
•
Remove the chassis, modules, and components from their shipping containers
immediately before you are ready to install them.
•
When installing modules and components, use wrist straps connected to a common
ground to prevent electrostatic discharge damage. (A common ground is a circuit
that provides a ground to the workplace, personnel, grounding wrist straps and foot
straps, and so on—a single ground system.)
•
Store components in ESD packaging when those components are not in use.
