Standard ENStandard Test Method for Electrical Resistance of Conductive and Static Dissipative Resilient Flooring
Also Known As:
Determine the electrical conductivity or resistance of conductive and static dissipative resilient flooring using ASTM F150-06 (R2018), a standard test procedure. This kind of flooring is utilized in places like hospitals, computer rooms, clean rooms, and munition facilities where it's important to prevent the buildup of electrostatic charges.
According to the standard, a static control floor must have controlled resistance values in order to properly link people and things while preventing the dangerous accumulation of electrostatic charges. Although the floor's surface offers a path with minimal electrical conductivity, it must be worn with static-control footwear for the floor to function well with people on it.
The guideline also acknowledges that some flooring materials' resistance may alter with time. Therefore, it is advised that the flooring's initial resistance stay within predetermined bounds to allow for resistance to increase or decrease over time without going over product requirements.
