Grounding the work area To prevent static damage in your work area: ● Cover the work surface with approved static-dissipative material. Use a wrist strap connected to the work surface, and properly grounded tools and equipment. ● Use static-dissipative mats, foot straps, or air ionizers to give added protection. ● Handle electrostatic-sensitive components, parts, and assemblies by the case or PCB laminate. Handle them only in static-free work areas. ● Disconnect power and input signals before inserting and removing connectors or test equipment. ● Use fixtures made of static-safe materials when fixtures must directly contact dissipative surfaces. ● Keep work area free of nonconductive materials, such as ordinary plastic assembly aids and Styrofoam. ● Use field service tools that are conductive, such as cutters, screwdrivers, and vacuums. Recommended ESD prevention materials and equipment Materials and equipment that are recommended for use in preventing static electricity include: ● Antistatic tape ● Antistatic smocks, aprons, and sleeve protectors ● Conductive bins and other assembly or soldering aids ● Conductive foam ● Conductive tabletop workstations with a ground cord of one megohm ± 10% resistance ● Static-dissipative table or floor mats with a hard-tie to ground ● Field service kits ● Static awareness labels ● Wrist straps and footwear straps providing one megohm ± 10% resistance ● Material-handling packages ● Conductive plastic bags ● Conductive plastic tubes ● Conductive tote boxes ● Opaque shielding bags ● Transparent metallized shielding bags ● Transparent shielding tubes Tools and software requirements ● Torx T-15 driver ● Flat blade and cross-tip screwdrivers ● Diagnostics software 54 Chapter 5 Removal and replacement procedures ENWW
