Installation Guidelines
Ensure the following engineering procedures are maintained during installation and integration of the safety module:
-
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Protection: Always wear a properly grounded ESD wrist strap before handling or inserting the module to prevent damage to sensitive CMOS components.
-
Backplane Insertion: Turn off system logic power before inserting or removing the module to prevent electrical arcing, unless hot-swapping is explicitly permitted in the current safety system hardware manual.
-
Cooling and Ventilation: Maintain clear air paths around the chassis. Vertical alignment of the cards must align with cooling air flow to prevent localized thermal hot spots.
-
Grounding: Verify that the chassis frame ground is connected securely to the main safety earth ground with minimal impedance.
