Discharging Static Electricity Is Necessary Before Using Woodward ProAct Integrated Actuator And Throttle:
It is always important to discharge the static electricity from our body before using or handling any electronic equipment. Basically, static electricity is the accumulation of imbalanced electric charges within or on the materials. Sometimes touching such materials can give u a powerful shock. Most of the electronic equipment build up static electricity and when we touch them we get a shock. In industries static electricity can be very dangerous. Hence, it is always vital to discharge static electricity before using electronic items.
The Woodward ProAct Actuators with Integrated Speed Control and Throttle Body (PISC ITBs) also require its user to eliminate static electricity before utilizing it. People can protect themselves from the hazards of static electricity by following ways:
- First of all, always eliminate your body’s static electricity to ground by holding or putting your hands on any metal object that is linked to ground such as pipes, instruments, furniture etc.
- Never keep things near your working area that can accumulate static electricity. These things include vinyl, plastic and Styrofoam objects.
- Always wear cotton cloths while working on electronic or electrical things and prevent wearing synthetic cloths. Natural cotton cloths do not allow static build up where as synthetic cloths accumulate it on your body and lead to electric shock.
- On the control cabinet, there is a Printed Circuit Board (PCB) that should not be removed until there is an essential need. If it becomes necessary to remove it for repairing or maintenance need then it should be handled very carefully. Try to touch only edges of the PCB. Never touch any part of PCB that can conduct electricity like any metal part, connector etc.
- Always keep the PCB in antistatic plastic bag when removed from the control cabinet.
