Every Day
1. Keep trash away from static-sensitive equipment. Plastic materials, such as trash can liners and plastic
foam cups, generate the static electricity that damages or destroys electronic components.
2. Look at the label. Static-sensitive components are marked with bright graphic labels. Follow the label
directions.
3. Spray the carpet. ESD that is generated when you walk over carpet is a major cause of component
destruction. In some cases, especially in low-humidity environments, you may need to periodically spray
carpets with an anti-static spray that is available at local stores.
During Maintenance and Repair
1. Wear a grounding strap when you work with static-sensitive components. Always make certain that the
clip is attached to a properly grounded, unpainted surface.
2. Use a portable grounding mat if you cannot repair components at an ESD-protected workstation.
(Kodak’s Customer Equipment Services Division can help you in set up ESD-protected workstations.)
3 . Use protective packaging when you transport components from one area to another. Transparent
antistatic bags, available from a variety of manufacturers, shield the components from further damage.
