The Polyflor ESD range of flooring has been specially engineered to facilitate a uniform flow of static electricity directly to a ground point. The range includes static dissipative (SD), electrostatic conductive (EC) and conductive ROF floorings.
EC flooring is a hard wearing, homogenous, commercial flooring product that is designed for areas which require static dissipative qualities. It is typically used for electronic assembly/repair areas, highly sensitive medical and computer equipment, electronics etc. Resistance to earth is in the range of 5 x 104 to 1 x 106 Ω.
SD flooring is a hard wearing, homogenous contact sheet or tile floor covering engineered for ESD protection. It is typically used for computer operator installations, hospital theatre / CAT scan equipment, MRI units and telephone exchanges. Resistance to earth is in the 5 x 106 – 1 x 109 Ω range.
Conductive flooring is generally used in explosive areas or manufacture of any explosive material, ammunition or highly sensitive chemicals, etc. Resistance to earth is in the range of 0 to 104 Ω, i.e., fully conductive.
