Anti Static Floor Coating - Koster ESD 275

In areas where electronics are manufactured or in areas that can be electrostatically charged by people or machines, the floor must have a sufficiently high electrostatic dissipation to eliminate the risk of damage. For this ESD protection areas are installed, (ESD : Electrostatic Discharge) where special ESD coatings are required.

The Koster ESD System has a structure that provides maximum protection against unwanted electrical charges. The product system consists of the conductive layer Koster ESD 175, which is a solvent free epoxy resin dispersion that is simply applied with a roller. After only two hours it is cured and can be connected to the building grounding.

Koster ESD 275 is applied as the top coat. After cure it not only protects the concrete from chemical and mechanical stresses, it also maintains the high electrostatic dissipation required for an ESD protected area. The Koster ESD System has been tested according to the DIN EN 61340-4 by the KIWA Polymer Institute Ltd. The excellent test results allow the Koster ESD System to be used in rooms with very high requirements.

Features and benefits:

• Fulfills the norms DIN EN 61340-4 parts 1 and 5 and is therefore also qualified as personal grounding protection.
• Resistance against grounding Rg(kΩ) of approx 173kΩ
• Resistance against grounding R2(MΩ) of approx 28MΩ
• Total system resistance of approx 4MΩ
• Available in a wide range of different colours.
• Layer thickness 0.2–2 mm.
• Self-levelling
