Preventing Electrostatic Discharge Damage

Electrostatic discharge (ESD) due to improper handling of the device's Fan Tray or Power Supply modules can cause irreversible damage. Therefore, adhere to the following guidelines for preventing ESD:

■

When handling these modules, always wear a grounded ESD wrist strap or ankle strap at a grounded work area to prevent ESD. Connect the equipment end of the strap to the chassis' ground lug.

To prevent static electrical damage to a module, do not touch its electrical components.
