This Industry Exclusive Advancement in technology turns standard carpeting into static dissipative carpeting at a fraction of the cost of static control carpet tiles. ElectraShield is fast and easy to apply, low to no odor, extremely long lasting (with a 2 year plus life expectancy) and meets stringent VOC emissions standards.
Reduces the Static Charge even on people wearing standard shoes!
ElectraShield transforms standard glued down carpeting into Operational Equipment Grade Static Dissipative Carpet thus helping control the damaging effects caused by an electrostatic discharge to sophisticated electronics. This level of static conductivity fully meets a multitude of high level standards such as ATIS-0600321, Motorola R56 (c.3.3 flooring) and FAA STD 019E.
TECHNICAL OVERVIEW: ElectraShield is a water based neutral pH carpet treatment formulated with a blend of polymers, co-polymers, non-ionic surfactants (that help protect the carpet from stains) and a proprietary static dissipative additive which provides long term electrostatic conductivity. This proprietary formulation chemically bonds at a molecular level to the carpet fibers and its backing. ElectraShield is designed to work in conjunction with the ground system in the facility and should be used in conjunction with grounded metal equipment racks or one each United Ground Plate per 750 square feet of carpeting.
APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS: Vacuum the carpet to remove loose dirt and soil. Spot clean stains if needed. For heavily soiled carpeting extraction clean using a dilute solution of 8 ounces of ElectraClean to 1 gallon of hot water. Allow carpet to dry before application of ElectraShield.
Always pretest a small inconspicuous area for color fastness prior to proceeding. Not recommended for Persian style wool rugs.
Apply ElectraShield full strength using a pump up weed sprayer in conjunction with a sponge mop. Thoroughly work the spray into the carpet with the sponge mop so as to wet the carpet and backing for best results. The use of floor dryers, blowers or fans will assist in drying the carpet more quickly.
Apply ElectraShield at roughly 750 square feet per gallon.
If grounded metal objects such as workbenches or server racks will be installed over the carpeting no other ground mechanism is required. If no grounded metal objects will be placed on the carpet install one each peel and stick ground plate for every 750 square feet of treated carper prior to installing the ElectraShield.
MAINTENANCE: Vacuum carpeting as needed. For heavily soiled carpeting extraction clean use a dilute solution of 8 ounces of ElectraClean to 1 gallon of hot water.
