9.4.2.3. TRANSFERRING COMPONENTS FROM RACK TO BENCH AND BACK
When transferring a sensitive device from an installed Teledyne Instruments
analyzer to an Anti-ESD workbench or back:
1. Follow the instructions listed above for working at the instrument rack and
workstation.
2. Never carry the component or assembly without placing it in an anti-ESD bag
or bin.
3. Before using the bag or container allow any surface charges on it to
dissipate:
If you are at the instrument rack, hold the bag in one hand while your
wrist strap is connected to a ground point.
If you are at an anti-ESD workbench, lay the container down on the
conductive work surface.
In either case wait several seconds.
4. Place the item in the container.
5. Seal the container. If using a bag, fold the end over and fastening it with
anti-ESD tape.
Folding the open end over isolates the component(s) inside from the
effects of static fields.
Leaving the bag open or simply stapling it shut without folding it closed
prevents the bag from forming a complete protective envelope around
the device.
6. Once you have arrived at your destination, allow any surface charges that
may have built up on the bag or bin during travel to dissipate:
Connect your wrist strap to ground.
If you are at the instrument rack, hold the bag in one hand while your
wrist strap is connected to a ground point.
If you are at a anti-ESD work bench, lay the container down on the
conductive work surface
In either case wait several seconds
7. Open the container.
