B Electrostatic Discharge

A discharge of static electricity from a finger or other conductor may damage system boards or other

static-sensitive devices. This type of damage may reduce the life expectancy of the device.

Preventing Electrostatic Damage

To prevent electrostatic damage, observe the following precautions:

●

Avoid hand contact by transporting and storing products in static-safe containers.

●

Keep electrostatic-sensitive parts in their containers until they arrive at static-free workstations.

●

Place parts on a grounded surface before removing them from their containers.

●

Avoid touching pins, leads, or circuitry.

●

Always be properly grounded when touching a static-sensitive component or assembly.

Grounding Methods

There are several methods for grounding. Use one or more of the following methods when handling or

installing electrostatic-sensitive parts:

●

Use a wrist strap connected by a ground cord to a grounded Thin Client chassis. Wrist straps are

flexible straps of 1 megohm +/- 10 percent resistance in the ground cords. To provide proper

grounding, wear the strap snug against the skin.

●

Use heelstraps, toestraps, or bootstraps at standing workstations. Wear the straps on both feet

when standing on conductive floors or dissipating floor mats.

●

Use conductive field service tools.

●

Use a portable field service kit with a folding static-dissipating work mat.

If you do not have any of the suggested equipment for proper grounding, contact an HP authorized

dealer, reseller, or service provider.

NOTE: For more information about static electricity, contact an HP authorized dealer, reseller, or
