Electrical equipment generates heat. Ambient air temperature may not be adequate to cool equipment
to acceptable operating temperatures without adequate circulation. Be sure that the room in which you
choose to operate your system has adequate air circulation.
Ensure that the chassis cover is secure. The chassis design allows cooling air to circulate effectively. An
open chassis permits air leaks, which may interrupt and redirect the flow of cooling air from internal
components.
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage equipment and impair electrical circuitry. ESD damage occurs
when electronic components are improperly handled and can result in complete or intermittent failures.
Be sure to follow ESD-prevention procedures when removing and replacing components to avoid these
problems.
Wear an ESD-preventive wrist strap, ensuring that it makes good skin contact. If no wrist strap is
available, ground yourself by touching the metal part of the chassis.
Periodically check the resistance value of the antistatic strap, which should be between 1 and 10
megohms (Mohms).
