Contamination: The Risk to Data Centers
One of IBM’s key concerns is maintaining optimal data center cleaning standards to control contamination. Just a single hour of downtime can result in staggering financial losses, averaging around $300,000. Common types of contamination found in data centers include dust, debris, fibers, skin cells, static, Zinc Whiskers, and other particulate matter. These contaminants not only carry immediate financial repercussions but also disrupt daily operations, jeopardize data security, and even pose a fire hazard.
Controlled environments play a vital role in monitoring and minimizing contamination levels stemming from personnel, equipment, and environmental factors. This vigilance is crucial for upholding data center safety and efficiency.
Neglecting effective contamination control carries significant risks to a company’s brand, profitability, and personnel. Therefore, maintaining robust data center cleaning control measures is imperative to mitigate downtime risks.
Dycem access tiles and floating mats, integrated as integral components of a contamination control strategy, provide invaluable support to reduce the risk of particulate, airborne, and electrostatic discharge.
Benefits of Dycem in Data Centers
superior particle collection & retention
Dirt and dust from shoes and wheels are captured on Dycem mats and remain on the surface until cleaned off. Dycem mats help to reduce contamination from shoes and wheels by up to 99.9%, and airborne contamination by up to 75%, helping to minimize the build-up of dust and other particulates in data centers
Reduced concerns of esd damage
With Dycem mats installed prior to, or inside critical areas, our data center customers have peace of mind that damage from an Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) occurrence will be minimized. All Dycem mats dissipate static at 10⁸ ohms.
