Handling static-sensitive devices
To reduce the possibility of damage from electrostatic discharge, observe these
precautions.
Attention:
Static electricity can damage the blade server and other electronic
devices. To avoid damage, keep static-sensitive devices in their static-protective
packages until you are ready to install them.
v
When you work on a BladeCenter chassis that has an electrostatic discharge
(ESD) connector, use a wrist strap, especially when you handle modules,
optional devices, or blade servers. To work correctly, the wrist strap must have a
good contact at both ends (touching your skin at one end and firmly connected
to the ESD connector on the front or back of the BladeCenter chassis).
v
Limit your movement. Movement can cause static electricity to build up around
you.
v
Handle the device carefully, holding it by its edges or its frame.
v
Do not touch solder joints, pins, or exposed circuitry.
v
Do not leave the device where others can handle and damage it.
v
While the device is still in its static-protective package, touch it to an
unpainted
metal part of the BladeCenter chassis or any
unpainted
metal surface on any
other grounded rack component in the rack in which you are installing the
device for at least 2 seconds. This drains static electricity from the package and
from your body.
v
Remove the device from its package and install it directly into the blade server
without setting down the device. If it is necessary to set down the device, put it
back into its static-protective package. Do not place the device on the blade
server cover or on a metal surface.
v
Take additional care when you handle devices during cold weather. Heating
reduces indoor humidity and increases static electricity.
