In-line anti-static tiles and overhead anti-static tiles are two common anti-static flooring materials, and there are some differences in their installation methods, construction and use characteristics. 1.Installation:
Straight anti-static tile: Straight anti-static tile refers to laying tiles directly on the ground, similar to the traditional way of tile paving. It is relatively simple to install and is suitable for use on the ground with a small amount of equipment. Straight anti-static tiles usually need to be scraped with cement mortar or self-leveling on the ground first, and then the tiles are pasted on the ground.
Overhead anti-static tile: Overhead anti-static tile refers to the installation of tiles on the base system to form an overhead floor structure. During installation, the base system needs to be fixed first, and then the tiles are placed on the base. Overhead anti-static tiles are suitable for large areas of the ground, such as factories, laboratories and other places.
2.Construction:
Straight anti-static tiles: Straight anti-static tiles are usually composed of conductive pavement adhesive, conductive pellets, special conductive agents and tile surfaces. The conductive adhesive layer is located on the back of the tile and plays the role of conductive and anti-static. The conductive pellets and conductive agents are evenly distributed inside the tile, ensuring good conductivity. The surface layer of ceramic tile has the characteristics of anti-slip, wear-resistant, and chemical-resistant.
Overhead anti-static tiles: Overhead anti-static tiles are usually composed of a conductive adhesive layer, glue, base system, and tile. The conductive adhesive layer is similar to the in-line anti-static tile, located on the back of the tile, which plays the role of conductive and anti-static. Glue is used to fix the connection of the tile and the base system. The base system usually consists of a metal base and metal feet, forming a load-bearing overhead structure.
3.Characteristics of use:
Straight anti-static tile: Straight anti-static tile has good conductivity and anti-static performance, which can effectively dissipate static electricity and protect the safety of electronic equipment and working environment. The surface of the in-line anti-static tile is smooth and flat, not easy to absorb dust and stains, and easy to clean and maintain. It has good abrasion resistance and can withstand long-term, high-frequency use without being easy to wear.
Overhead anti-static tiles: Overhead anti-static tiles have similar conductivity and anti-static properties as straight-laid anti-static tiles. Overhead anti-static tiles can be easily installed, maintained and adjusted through overhead design. The plinyard system provides a more comfortable working environment by increasing the distance between the tiles and the floor, reducing the conduction of sound and vibration.
It should be noted that both in-line anti-static tiles and overhead anti-static tiles need to strictly control the quality of grounding during the construction process to ensure the effectiveness of their conductive properties. In addition, according to the specific use needs and environmental conditions, it is very important to choose the right anti-static flooring material and installation method.
In addition to the above differences, there may also be differences between in-line anti-static tiles and overhead anti-static tiles in terms of service life, load-bearing capacity, anti-slip performance and appearance effect, so they need to be comprehensively considered in selection and application.
