electrostatic sensitive components / modules.
The device contains electronic components which react sensitively to electrostatic discharge (ESD). Contact
with electrostatically charged persons or objects is hazardous to these components. In the worst case scenario,
they will be destroyed immediately or will fail after start-up.
▶ Observe the requirements in accordance with EN 61340-5-1 to minimise or avoid the possibility of damage
caused by sudden electrostatic discharge.
▶ Also ensure that you do not touch electronic components when the power supply voltage is present.
