GENERAL PURPOSE REED RELAY MODULE  50-110/115-021/121

SECTION 8 - WARNINGS AND CAUTIONS

WARNING - DANGER OF ELECTRIC SHOCK

THIS MODULE MAY CONTAIN HAZARDOUS VOLTAGES. BEFORE REMOVING 

THE MODULE FROM THE RACK REMOVE ALL SUPPLIES.

WARNING – HAZARDOUS ENVIRONMENTS

This product is not specifically designed for use in hazardous 

environments, for example in explosive atmospheres. If the product is to 

be used in hazardous environments we recommend that the user ensures 

suitable protective measures are taken.

CAUTION – Handling of Electrostatic-Sensitive Semiconductor Devices

Certain semiconductor devices used in this equipment are liable to damage due to static 

voltage. Observe the following precautions when handling these devices in their unterminated 

state, or sub-units containing these devices:

1.

 Persons removing sub-units from an equipment using these devices must be earthed by a 

wrist strap and a resistor at the point provided on the equipment.

2.

 Soldering irons used during the repair operations must be low voltage types with earthed 

tips and isolated from the mains voltage by a double insulated transformer.

3.

 Outer clothing worn must be unable to generate static charges.

4.

 Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs) fitted with these devices must be stored and transported in 

anti-static bags.
