61 35... Notes on ESD protection (Electro Static Discharge)
Special tools required:
NOTE:
Electrical components which are particularly sensitive to electrostatic discharge (electronic control units, sensors, etc.) are marked with the ESD warning symbol.
E Electro
S Static
D Discharge
IMPORTANT:
Statically charged persons can discharge themselves when they tap electrical components.
Humans can only detect a discharge starting from a level of approx. 3000 V.
The danger threshold for electrical components already starts from a level of approx. 100 V.
Humans can only detect a discharge starting from a level of approx. 3000 V.
The danger threshold for electrical components already starts from a level of approx. 100 V.
Example:
Mechatronic control unit.
IMPORTANT:
Do not tap pins and multi-pin connectors directly!
Only tap the housings of electrical components.
Only tap the housings of electrical components.
IMPORTANT:
To avoid damaging or destroying electrical components as a result of electrostatic discharge, it is absolutely essential to observe the following instructions:
- When replacing electrical components, leave the replacement components in their original packaging until immediately before they are to be installed
- If necessary, always return a removed component in its original packaging (always pack the component away immediately)
- Read and comply with user information on using the associated special tool 12 7 060
Personal protective equipment:
Electrically conducting clothing (high wool content, antistatic shoes required).
These can primarily be identified by the logo on the side.
