human.
Preventive Measures
Check for an ESD warning label before doing any procedure with ESD-sensitive components. All sensitive
components have graphic labels that frequently include instructions. Use all label instructions.
Wear a grounding strap when you touch ESD-sensitive components. Check that the clip remains fastened to a
ground that has a clean surface with no paint.
Repair components in an ESD-protection area or use a portable grounding mat.
When moving ESD-sensitive components from area to area, insert and transport the components in the special
material made for the transport of these components.

Maximum Permissible Dose (MPD) and ALARA

Various studies on the effects of X-radiation have provided a foundation for establishing the maximum permissible
dose of radiation to which an individual might be exposed. The results of these studies have been used by the
National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements (NCRP) and International Commission on Radiological
Protection (ICRP) to develop recommendations for the MPD. Federal and state agencies have incorporated these
recommendations into their regulations for MPD.
See the Safety and Regulatory Information for additional safety information.
