SelecTech, Inc. recently completed installation of ESD flooring at UTC Aerospace’s Phoenix, AZ facility. The installation consisted of more than 100,000 square feet of SelecTech’s StaticStop flooring.
UTC Aerospace Systems is one of the world’s largest suppliers of technologically advanced aerospace and defense products. The company designs, manufactures and services systems and components and provides integrated solutions for commercial, regional, business and military aircraft, helicopters and other platforms. UTC Aerospace is also a major supplier to international space programs.
“When customers select our ESD flooring, it’s first and foremost to minimize the static electricity to lessen the chance of static discharges that could damage sensitive components or impact data stored on electronic devices. While this is an important factor for all our customers, the stakes are a little higher when you’re talking about a company that makes products for national defense and the space program,” said Thomas Ricciardelli, president of SelecTech, Inc. “Fortunately, our ESD flooring scores higher on walking voltage tests than practically any other brand.”
Like the name implies, the walking voltage test measures the amount of static electricity generated by somebody walking. A reading of 100 or less is considered acceptable. SelecTech ESD flooring typically scores under 10.
