Installation
ESD-FLOORINGS
§ The main purpose is conduct static
electricity between ground and surface
in accordance with the standards.
§ But It has to work as a flooring and be
economical in both service and
maintenance.

Subfloors
Concrete subfloors
§ Moisture 85 ( 90 )% RH, 50 l/m³ must be dried out
3,5 weigth-%, CM 2,5 % ( proportion of water to
cement)
§ Smooth
§ Level
§ Dense
§ Free from foreign subtances
§ No levelling compounds in heavy forcliff traffic

1,5 m width
Welded seams
Dry& level
subfloor
Normal acrylic
based adhesive
Copper strips
between the
lengths, every 2
meters
§
Grounding point, at
least 2 point/ room
§ 1 point for each
additional 100 m2
ESTRAD ESD
Installation
Welded seams
§ welding rod 4,0 mm
§ matching for each colour
§ 50 lm/roll
ESTRAD ESD
Installation
Rolling
§ 50-70 kg roller
§ Within 1-2 hours from fitting,
before adhesive is dry
§ Good adhesion, lower
residual indentation
ESTRAD ESD
Installation
Installation with normal acrylic
based adhesives
§ Easier, safer, cheaper installation
§ Adhesive has no influence on
conductivity
§ Conductive backing
§ Full responsibility of the technical
performance
ESTRAD ESD
Installation
Grounding
§ Grounding points 60 X 200 mm Copper, at least
2/100m2 or per room, Wire 6 mm2
§ In bigger areas 1 for additional 100 m2
ESTRAD ESD
Installation
Grounding
§ Connection between the lengths; Copper strips
30X165mm
§ After every 2 lm and at the end of a sheets
§ All copper strips are included in price and
delivered in the core of rolls
ESTRAD ESD
Installation
Loose laying
§ with your own risk
§ double side tape, welded seams
§ risk for stretching in heavy use
ESTRAD ESD
Installation
Installation on the head of existing floor
§ the best way is always to remove existing flooring
§ with own risk (has been used quite often)
§ make sure that subfloor is solid and free from
foreign substances
ESTRAD ESD
Installation
Installation on the head of existing floor
§ check the bonding of existing flooring
§ make sure that adhesive is suitable
§ long open time, non absorbent subfloor
§ deeper residual indentation
ESTRAD ESD
maintenance
§ initial cleaning
§ polishing
§ periodic maintenance
§ SHS-metod
§ stain removal
ESTRAD ESD
maintenance
§ Vacuum and sweep floor clean of any
loose dirt.
§ Wash with alkaline solution (glycol
containing)
§ Use red pads or medium hard brushes
when cleaning with a scrubbing machine
or a combination machine.
§ Rinse.

ESTRAD ESD
maintenance
§ If necessary, you can polish the floor with
one thin coat of ”antistatic” wax
§ The suitability of wax must be tested.
§ The electrical insulation resistance must be
tested after polishing.
§ Wahing may weaken the the conductivity
of the flooring.
ESTRAD ESD
maintenance
§ Damp or wet cleaning, depending on type of soiling
§ Larger surfaces require the use of a combination
machine
§ Use a neutral or mild alkaline detergent or protective
substances
§ We recommend localized polishing e.g. on walkways
when necessary
ESTRAD ESD
Maintenance
SHS buffing
§ The floor can be treated by
using Super High Speedmachine with light or red pads.
§ The SHS-method allows the use of
protective substances
ESTRAD ESD
Maintenance
Stain removal
§ All stains must be removed immediately to avoid
permanent marks on the floor
§ Stain remover may affect the flooring or the
adhesive. When in doubt about the effect of stain
remover carry out a test or contact flooring/remover
manufacturer. On stubborn marks using the effect of
chemicals instead of mechanical scrubbing is
recommended
