Juniper EX2300 Series Hardware Guide

Prevenon of Electrostac Discharge Damage
Device components that are shipped in anstac bags are sensive to damage from stac electricity.
Some components can be impaired by voltages as low as 30 V. You can easily generate potenally
damaging stac voltages whenever you handle plasc or foam packing material or if you move
components across plasc or carpets. Observe the following guidelines to minimize the potenal for
electrostac discharge (ESD) damage, which can cause intermient or complete component failures:
• Always use an ESD wrist strap when you are handling components that are subject to ESD damage,
and make sure that it is in direct contact with your skin.
If a grounding strap is not available, hold the component in its anstac bag (see Figure 98 on page
289) in one hand and touch the exposed, bare metal of the device with the other hand immediately
before inserng the component into the device.
WARNING: For safety, periodically check the resistance value of the ESD grounding
strap. The measurement must be in the range 1 through 10 Mohms.
Averssement Par mesure de sécurité, vériez régulièrement la résistance du bracelet
anstaque. Cee valeur doit être comprise entre 1 et 10 mégohms (Mohms).
• When handling any component that is subject to ESD damage and that is removed from the device,
make sure the equipment end of your ESD wrist strap is aached to the ESD point on the chassis.
If no grounding strap is available, touch the exposed, bare metal of the device to ground yourself
before handling the component.
• Avoid contact between the component that is subject to ESD damage and your clothing. ESD
voltages emied from clothing can damage components.
