4. General Safety Instructions for IT Equipment KISS 4U V2 – User's Guide (Version 1.01)

4. General Safety Instructions for IT Equipment

Please consider the instructions described in the included “General Safety Instructions for IT Equipment”.
Caution: Energy hazards > 240 VA are present inside the chassis! Activities such as system expansion with expansion cards, or maintanance have to be carried-out by qualified personnel familiar with the associated dangers!
The installation instructions for the KISS 4U V2 Platform is the responsibility of the distributor.
When used as intended the KISS 4U V2 platform is to operate only closed and locked.
Only when the cover is properly installed, secured with the knurled screws on the rear and the cover fastening screw on the front, and the access panel is locked with the key, it is ensured that the user doesn’t have access to the internal parts of the KISS 4U V2 platform, loaded with hazardous energy.

4.1. Operation of Laser Source Devices

Fig. 1: Laser radiation warning label
The optional DVD drives contain light-emitting diodes (classified in accordance with IEC 825-1:1993: LASER CLASS 1) and therefore must not be opened.
If the enclosure of such a drive is opened, invisible laser radiation is emitted. Do not allow yourself to be exposed to this radiation.
The laser system meets the code of Federal Regulations 21 CFR, 1040 for the USA and the Canadian Radiation Emitting Devices Act, REDR C 1370.

4. General Safety Instructions for IT Equipment KISS 4U V2 – User's Guide (Version 1.01)

4.2. Electrostatic Discharge (ESD)

A sudden discharge of electrostatic electricity can destroy static-sensitive devices or micro-circuitry. Proper packaging and grounding techniques are necessary precautions to prevent damage. Always take the following precautions:
1. Transport boards in static-safe containers such as boxes or bags.
2. Keep electrostatic sensitive parts in their containers until they arrive at the ESD-safe workplace.
3. Always be properly grounded when touching a sensitive board, component, or assembly.
4. Store electrostatic-sensitive boards in protective packaging or on antistatic mats.

4.2.1. Grounding Methods

The following measures help to avoid electrostatic damages to the device:
1. Cover workstations with approved antistatic material. Always wear a wrist strap connected to workplace as well as
properly grounded tools and equipment.
2. Use anti-static mats, heel straps, or air ionizes to give added protection.
3. Always handle electrostatic sensitive components by their edge or by their casing.
4. Avoid contact with pins, leads, or circuitry.
5. Turn off power and input signals before inserting and removing connectors or connecting test equipment.
6. Keep work area free of non-conductive materials such as ordinary plastic assembly aids and styrofoam.
7. Use field service tools such as cutters, screwdrivers, and vacuum cleaners which are conductive.
8. Always place drives and boards PCB-assembly-side down on the foam.

4.3. Instructions for the Lithium Battery

The installed motherboard or SBC (Single Board Computer) is equipped with a Lithium battery. When replacing the lithium battery, please follow the corresponding instructions in the chapter
Caution
Danger of explosion when replacing with wrong type of battery. Replace only with the same or equivalent type recommended by the manufacturer. The lithium battery type must be UL recognized.
10.3 “Replacing the Lithium Battery”.
Do not dispose of lithium batteries in general trash collection. Dispose of the battery according to the local regulations dealing with the disposal of these special materials, (e.g. to the collecting points for dispose of batteries).
