Product Related Safety Precautions

The Vaisala HUMICAP® Humidity and Temperature Module HMM212 delivered to you has been tested for safety and approved as shipped from the factory. Note the following precautions:
WARNING
CAUTION
CAUTION
Ground the product, and verify outdoor installation grounding periodically to minimize shock hazard.
Do not modify the unit. Improper modification can damage the product or lead to malfunction.
Do not touch the sensor element.

ESD Protection

Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) can cause immediate or latent damage to electronic circuits. Vaisala products are adequately protected against ESD for their intended use. However, it is possible to damage the product by delivering electrostatic discharges when touching, removing, or inserting any objects inside the equipment housing.
To make sure you are not delivering high static voltages yourself:
- Handle ESD sensitive components on a properly grounded and protected ESD workbench. When this is not possible, ground yourself to the equipment chassis before touching the boards. Ground yourself with a wrist strap and a resistive connection cord. When neither of the above is possible, touch a conductive part of the equipment chassis with your other hand before touching the boards.
VAISALA________________________________________________________________________ 9
