Components with electrostatic-sensitive devices are identified by the following
sticker:
Figure 1: ESD label
When you handle components fitted with ESDs, you must always observe the
following points:
●
Pull out the power plug before installing or uninstalling components.
●
You must always discharge static build-up (e.g. by touching a grounded
object) before working with such components.
●
Any devices or tools that are used must be free of electrostatic charge.
●
Wear a suitable grounding cable that connects you to the external chassis of
the system unit.
●
Always hold components with ESDs at the edges or at the points marked
green (touch points).
●
Do not touch any connectors or conduction paths on an ESD.
●
Place all the components on a pad which is free of electrostatic charge.
