Safety Recommendations
Working in an ESD Environment
Work on ESD-sensitive parts only at an approved static-safe station on a grounded static dissipative work
surface, for example, an ESD workbench or static dissipative mat.
To remove and replace components in a sensor, follow these steps:
Step 1 Remove all static-generating items from your work area.
Step 2 Use a static dissipative work surface and wrist strap.
Note Disposable wrist straps, typically those included with an upgrade part, are designed for one time
use.
Step 3 Attach the wrist strap to your wrist and to the terminal on the work surface. If you are using a disposable
wrist strap, connect the wrist strap directly to an unpainted metal surface of the chassis.
Step 4 Connect the work surface to the chassis using a grounding cable and alligator clip.
Caution Always follow ESD-prevention procedures when removing, replacing, or repairing components.
Note If you are upgrading a component, do not remove the component from the ESD packaging until
you are ready to install it.
