Colorex EC
Colorex EC is perfect for IT-rooms, laboratories and ISO standard cleanrooms. Satisfying the strictest requirements for particle release behaviour, Colorex EC helps to reduce any threat of contamination.
The key purpose of control measures in ESD protected areas (EPA) is to reduce electrostatic charge generation. In spaces such as data centres, electronics assembly and life sciences the optimum floor covering is crucial. Not only does it drain electrostatic charges from personnel and equipment, but Colorex EC also reduces the generation of charges where they occur, between shoe soles and the floor.
Colorex EC
With Colorex EC, static charges flow smoothly through the thick network of tiny conductive veins running through the thickness of the tile. These charges are transmitted via the conductive adhesive then discharged securely to earth via the copper strip - a completely natural system with no need for volatile chemical anti-static additives. Conductivity remains unaffected by temperature or humidity changes.
Functionality:
Permanently conductive
Description:
Permanently conductive floor, connection between tiles through conductive adhesive & connected to earth by copper strip. Compliant to IEC 61340-4-5 with appropriate ESD shoes
Application areas:
ESD facilities, pharmaceutical laboratories, cleanrooms, production sites (life sciences, electronics, manufacturing) and operating theatres. Colorex EC meets the strictest requirements for particle release behaviour, reducing any threat of contamination.
