ESD prevention

CAUTION:
•

Check the resistance of the ESD wrist strap for safety. The resistance reading should be in the range of
1 to 10 megohm (Mohm) between human body and the ground.

The F5000-A5 does not provide any ESD wrist strap. Prepare it yourself.

To prevent electrostatic discharge (ESD), follow these guidelines:

•

Make sure the firewall and rack are correctly grounded.

•

An anti-static floor is installed and correctly grounded.

•

Maintain the humidity and temperature at a compliant range in the equipment room. For more
