Residual Dangers
Dangerous situations can be avoided by safety-conscious and proactive behaviour of
the staff and by wearing personal protective equipment.
Electrostatically Endangered Components and Modules
The control top contains electronic components that are sensitive to electrostatic
discharge (ESD). Contact with electrostatically-charged persons or objects can
endanger these components. In the worst case they are destroyed immediately or fail
after being put into operation.
To minimize or prevent the possibility of damage resulting from sudden electrostatic
discharge,
•
observe the requirements of DIN EN 61340-5-1 and 5-2 and
•
take care not to touch the electronic components!
