• Do not touch any exposed area of the antenna to avoid electrostatic discharge. Do not
let the antenna area be touched in a non ESD-safe manner.
• When soldering, use an ESD-safe soldering iron.
17.4. Safety recommendations
It is your duty to ensure that the product is allowed to be used in the destination country
and within the required environment. Usage of the product can be dangerous and must be
tested and verified by the end user. Be especially careful of:
• Use in areas with risk of explosion (for example oil refineries, gas stations).
• Use in areas such as airports, aircraft, hospitals, etc., where the product may interfere
with other electronic components.
It is the customer’s responsibility to ensure compliance with all applicable legal, regulatory
and safety-related requirements as well as applicable environmental regulations. Disassem-
bling the product is not allowed. Evidence of tampering will void the warranty.
• Compliance with the instructions in the product manual is recommended for correct
product set-up.
• The product must be provided with a consolidated voltage source. The wiring must
meet all applicable fire and security prevention standards.
• Handle with care. Avoid touching the pins as there could be ESD damage.
Be careful when working with any external components. When in doubt consult the technical
documentation and relevant standards. Always use an antenna with the proper characteris-
tics.
Since the module itself is not fused the voltage supply shall be fed from a
limited power source according to EN 62368-1 class PS1.
Modules with high output power of up to 500mW, as for example the Thebe
family, generate a high amount of warmth while transmitting. The manufactur-
er of the end device must take care of potentially neccessary actions for his
application.
