Vinyl ESD floor tiles are probably the most expensive approach to "permanent" flooring, about $8 a square installed. VPI and 3M are reputable suppliers. Let me digress on ESD floor "waxes", the earlier poster�s comments are well taken, but the bigge

I would also be concerned about spreading solder paste on the walls/floor/equipment downstream of the air. This would then get transfered to hands, clothing and shoes. In turn, tracked out to the rest of the floor/building or even to the home of em

You'll still have to mop the tiles bye the way to keep them clean. Instead of tiles I've used epoxy coating over concrete and used ESD wax. Had to clean floor and add wax about montly. We had one of those ESD floor testers to check. Epoxy floor was w

Obviously a totally clean floor is the best. So what if you have 1 particle of dust on your entire production floor? Is that 1 part per million (1 PPM)? or is that 1 part per billion? or 1 part per ???? How do you measure dust and come up with a

Hi Russ, We had a painted/waxed floor in one factory & a ESD tiled floor in the other. Both passed every audit (including telecoms & Japanese OEM's)that tested ESD etc. Neither factory had issues with ESD damage to components either. The tiled f

Thanks. That's a good Idea. But question. Can a cleaning equipment (aqeous cleaner design for low standoff height parts) be able to clean my PCB given that the PCB sat in our production floor for 1 week prior to cleaning? Will the flux stick hard ont
