Before You Begin 
Before you start the installation procedure, make sure you have all the tools and 
accessories ready. You also need to know the torquing specifications for the DSAN 
housing. 
 
ESD Handling Precautions 
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) results from the static electricity buildup on the human 
body and other objects. This static discharge can degrade components and cause 
failures. 
 
CAUTION: 
Prevent electrostatic damage to electronic equipment. Take ESD precautions, 
including the use of an ESD wrist strap.
 
Take the following precautions against electrostatic discharge when working on this 
equipment with the housing open: 
 
Use an anti-static bench mat and a wrist strap or ankle strap designed to safely 
ground ESD potentials through a resistive element. If you do not have a wrist 
strap, maintain grounded contact with the equipment throughout any procedure 
requiring ESD protection. 
 
Do not let clothing come into contact with the equipment. The ESD strap protects 
against ESD voltages that occur from the body, but not from the clothing. 
 
Do not slide the equipment over any surface. 
 
Keep new components in their anti-static packaging until ready for installation. 
 
Hold component boards by the edges only. Do not touch board-mounted 
components or gold connector pins. 
 
After removing components, place them on a grounded, static-free surface, ESD 
pad, or in a proper ESD bag. 
 
Tools and Accessories 
The following tools are needed to configure and install the DSAN: 
 
Torque wrench with a half-inch socket 
 
Hex driver or ratchet 
 
Flat-blade or Phillips screwdriver
