Modern data centres need to operate with high variation and up to 99.99% uptime. Even a few seconds of downtime can cause losses in crores of rupees. The entire premise is based on complex and interconnected electronic equipment, environment control units and sensors. ESD poses a challenge to data centre operations and standards as it can damage equipment and worst, cause fires.
That is why anti-static tiles are needed for data centre floors. Anti-static tiles help dissipate the built-up charge to the earth and keep the equipment safe from sudden bursts of charge.
