Locations that contain any amount of equipment that holds information through electronic means will be best served by setting precautions in place that will protect these machines from harm. Computerized systems and databases need to be kept out of high temperature spaces, away from possible liquid spills and especially armed against electrical surges. Choosing to have a special carpet designed for static control installed could help eliminate much of the possible risk.
A strong surge of electricity, even one that lasts less than a second, can cause critical damage to computer equipment. This sudden influx in power may result in burned wires, melted connections, and loss of precious information. While many components may be replaced or repaired without much difficulty, but the deletion of data might have costly repercussions.
People generate electrical charges while going about their daily business, but especially while walking as their feet drag across the carpet and create friction. Small shocks delivered when touching the keyboards or housings of computers can send small discharges that result in glitches. Too many at the same time can be quite hazardous to the system.
There is a type of carpet that is especially designed to absorb electrostatic charges before they can be delivered to the sensitive electronics. They use fibers that are made of a unique composition for enduring conductivity and with a full UL approval, they deliver a bevy of benefits to those facilities that install them. They pull the electricity out of those walking on them and channel the discharges to a grounded base in order to render them harmless.
There are several manufacturers for this type of product though they all share many of the same basic functionality features. As one may expect, having a specialty flooring placed throughout a facility can be quite costly should there be any need to replace portions of it. For the purposes of being economical, the carpet is produced in two foot square tiles for maximum efficiency.
Aside from being more economical than having to purchase a roll of carpeting and recovering an entire room when only a small area is damaged, there are a number of advantages to the two foot sections. The fibers are done in designs that easily blend old dye lots with new ones without a noticeable difference, stains do not show a easily and high traffic paths do not look worn. Switching out tiles is done with no obvious seams, visual variations or need to disturb the remaining pieces.
This low maintenance product protects the people working within the area as it simultaneously guards the computers against shocks and surges. Stains are repelled and a simple vacuuming will keep it free of dirt. The carpeting is made to absorb and deaden much of the sound and vibrations from the machinery, and its EPA certified anti-microbial features maintain an area that is free from mold and mildew and their offensive odors.
The specifications for electrostatic conductive material used in flooring products are incredibly stringent. They are held to much higher standards than traditional carpets that claim to reduce the risk of damages to such sensitive equipment. Some of their more common applications include being used in computer labs, data collections banks, network servers, critical command offices, call centers, and 911 dispatch facilities.
