Technical Cleaning

�������������� ��������

JUSTIFICATION

Cleaning of Data Centers and Communications Rooms should be performed by

qualified personnel who will use techniques and equipment designed to clean

without re-contaminating environment or disrupt the Data Center and

Communications Rooms.

Surface cleaning of racks and above pipes is done by using a damp cloth and Surface cleaning of racks and above pipes is done by using a damp cloth and

vacuum, then the gap between the soil and subsoil (most important area of the

Data Center for cleanliness), as it is the plenum generally where the cold air is

distributed. It is also the most critical site because dust and dirt accumulates.

It is very important to properly clean the floor tiles of the Data Center that are

designed to dissipate static electricity. Dirt reduces electrostatic dissipating

property of these tiles. Should be cleaned one by one all those to which access is

outside the room and install again and level.

BENEFITS OF TECHNICAL CLEANING

- Extend the life of the new equipment in the rooms, avoiding contamination

thereof.

- Minimize the risk of fire due to the accumulated dust on the hardware.

- Avoid electro static discharge causing transmission failure between

computers.

- Avoid the existence of ferrous material (oxides).

- To minimize mechanical wear and hardware failures. - To minimize mechanical wear and hardware failures.

- Minimize air pollution

- Remove contaminants alive

- Avoid cleaning by unqualified staff that may cause damage and downtime

- Keep the environment free of contaminating particles.

- Extend the life of air conditioning filters.

- Avoid using harsh cleaning agents that can attack the hardware and pollute the

environment

CONTENT SERVICE

Raised Floor:

non-harmful to the environment and Anti-

Static)

- Special brushes for all types of surfaces

and corners.

- General Cleaning.

- Other accessories for the development of

the technical cleaning

PURITY ANALYSIS OF AIR

Should carry out an analysis of the amount of suspended particles containing air

with an optical particle analyzer. This analysis follows the International Standard

ISO 14644, with several measures over the entire surface of the Data Center

(according to standard depends on the size), with the limits of that legislation the

values indicated in the table:

IT TILES

A good Technical Cleaning should last over time.

Data Centers should be kept clean according to ISO 14644 Class 8.

80% of dust and dirt in the critical area occurs in the feet (Source: 3M).

IT Tiles located at the entrance of the technical rooms avoid more than 99% of IT Tiles located at the entrance of the technical rooms avoid more than 99% of

the dust and dirt from entering the room and near the ground level.

IT TILES

IT tiles provide important benefits:

- Longer equipment life

- Reduced loss of data and read / write errors

- Reduced maintenance cost itself

- Improved reliability of its facilities

Dust may cause irreversible damage to computer systems to obstruct heat sinks

and cooling systems leading to overheating and cause an increased risk of fire

hazard. No protection against dust, there is great risk of data loss and hardware

failures in Data Centers.
