Handling electrostatic sensitive devices (ESD)
Electrostatic sensitive devices (ESD) are individual components, integrated circuits, modules or devices that may be
damaged by either electric fields or electrostatic discharge.
Damage through electric fields or electrostatic discharge
Electric fields or electrostatic discharge can cause malfunctions through damaged individual components,
integrated circuits, modules or devices.
• Only pack, store, transport and send electronic components, modules or devices in their original packaging
or in other suitable materials, e.g conductive foam rubber of aluminum foil.
• Only touch components, modules and devices when you are grounded by one of the following methods:
– Wearing an ESD wrist strap
– Wearing ESD shoes or ESD grounding straps in ESD areas with conductive flooring
• Only place electronic components, modules or devices on conductive surfaces (table with ESD surface,
conductive ESD foam, ESD packaging, ESD transport container).
Note
Industrial security
Siemens provides products and solutions with industrial security functions that support the secure operati
on of plants,
systems, machines and networks.
In order to protect plants, systems, machines and networks against cyber threats, it is necessary to implement
– and
– a holistic, state-of-the-art industrial security concept. Siemens pro
ducts and solutions only represent
one component of such a concept.
The customer is responsible for preventing unauthorized access to its plants, systems, machines and networks. Systems,
machines and components should only be connected to the enterprise network or the internet if and to the extent necessary
and with appropriate security measures (e.g. use of firewalls and network segmentation) in place.
Additionally, Siemens’ guidance on appropriate security measures should be taken into account. For more information about
industrial security, please visit:

Siemens’ products and solutions undergo continuous development to make them mor
e secure. Siemens strongly
recommends to apply product updates as soon as available and to always use the latest product versions. Use of product
versions that are no longer supported, and failure to apply latest updates may increase customer’s exposure to
cyber

Danger to life as a result of unsafe operating states resulting from software manipulation
Software manipulations (e.g. viruses, trojans, malware or worms) can cause unsafe operating states in your system that
may lead to death, serious injury, and property damage.
• Keep the software up to date.
• Incorporate the automation and drive components into a holistic, state-of-the-art industrial security concept for the
installation or machine.
• Make sure that you include all installed products into the holistic industrial security concept.
• Protect files stored on exchangeable storage media from malicious software by with suitable protection measures, e.g.
