ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE (ESD)
PRECAUTIONS PROCEDURE
FURNACE RELIABILITY HAZARD
Improper installation or service of furnace may cause
premature furnace component failure.
Electrostatic discharge can affect electronic components.
Follow the Electrostatic Discharge Precautions Procedure
listed below during furnace installation and servicing to
protect the furnace electronic control. Precautions will
prevent electrostatic discharges from personnel and hand
tools which are held during the procedure. These
precautions will help to avoid exposing the control to
electrostatic discharge by putting the furnace, the control,
and the person at the same electrostatic potential.
CAUTION
!
1. Disconnect all power to the furnace. Multiple disconnects
maybe required. DO NOT TOUCH THE CONTROL OR
ANY WIRE CONNECTED TO THE CONTROL PRIOR
TO DISCHARGING YOUR BODY’S ELECTROSTAT-
IC CHARGE TO GROUND.
2. Firmly touch the clean, unpainted, metal surface of the
furnace chassis which is close to the control. Tools held in
a person’s hand during grounding will be satisfactorily
discharged.
3. After touching the chassis, you may proceed to service the
control or connecting wires as long as you do nothing to
recharge your body with static electricity (for example;
DO NOT move or shuffle your feet, do not touch
ungrounded objects, etc).
4. If you touch ungrounded objects (and recharge your body
with static electricity), firmly touch a clean, unpainted
metal surface of the furnace again before touching control
or wires.
5. Use this procedure for installed and uninstalled
(ungrounded) furnaces.
6. Before removing a new control from its container,
discharge your body’s electrostatic charge to ground to
protect the control from damage. If the control is to be
installed in a furnace, follow items 1 through 4 before
bringing the control or yourself in contact with the
furnace. Put all used and new controls into containers
before touching ungrounded objects.
7. An ESD service kit (available from commercial sources)
may also be used to prevent ESD damage.
