Raised Floor Definition, Structure, Characteristics & Advantages
Raised floor is
also called anti-static floor or anti-static floor. It is a floor that can be
flexibly installed and disassembled on the concrete floor of the equipment room
as required. The ground floor is a very important part of the engineering and
technical facilities in each room of the computing center. Anti-static steel
raised floors or aluminum raised access floors should be used in the main room
area, and anti-static metal raised floors or general raised floors can be used
in the terminal room area. Power area and office area can use general terrazzo
floor or wooden floor. The following introduces access floor and anti-static
raised floor. The use of anti-static floor can form an underground space in the
machine room.
Raised Floor Definition - What is Raised Access Floor?
1. The raised floor
structure provides suitable space for the signal line, power line and machine
ground line system between the laying equipment. Computer equipment can be
freely electrically connected through a raised floor. Because raised floors are
removable, electrical wiring is easy to lay, maintain and replace. All the
wires have access to the equipment from under the raised floor, so that the
wires between the equipment can be directly connected with the shortest
distance, so that the loss of the signal during transmission can be reduced.
Computer equipment uses the space under the raised floor as the static pressure
air storage of the air conditioner, which provides convenience for the air
conditioning of the equipment and the equipment room. Can obtain a more
satisfactory airflow organization. Because the floor with airflow distribution
vents is interchangeable with ordinary raised floors, the machine room bone can
freely adjust the airflow distribution. Regardless of the location of the
equipment, the air-conditioned air can be obtained through the air flow on the
floor.
2. Regardless of
the shape and area of the computer room, it can be easily and quickly
assembled and easily dismantled. This facilitates the layout and adjustment of
the equipment, while reducing the transformation of building facilities caused
by equipment expansion or replacement. The unevenness of the floor can be
leveled with the help of an adjustable stand. The floor surface is firm,
abrasion-resistant, clean, dust-free, non-vacuum-proof, non-reflective, and
non-slip. It can be wet-washed and cleaned with a vacuum cleaner. The
antistatic steel raised floor is used in the main room, which can make the
static charge leak to the ground and reflect electromagnetic radiation.
Raised Access Floor Structure & Components
The main components
of raised floor are floor panels, adjustable movable support, truss and
load-bearing, and horizontal strip cushions for sealing. In terms of the
materials used for flooring, they are roughly divided into three categories:
pure wooden flooring, composite flooring, all-steel flooring, and metal
flooring.
Raised Access Floor System Types
Woodcore Raised Floor Panels
The advantages of woodcoreraised floorings are low cost and easy processing, but the strength is poor, it
is susceptible to moisture and deformation, and it is easy to cause a fire.
Generally, it is not used in the machine room.
Calcium Sulphate Raised Floor Panels
The base material
of the composite raised floor is laminated particleboard, cement particleboard
or calcium sulfate, with plastic finishes affixed to the upper and lower
surfaces, sealed with paint around, or covered with galvanized iron. Its advantages
are flat and smooth, dust-free, easy to clean, flexible, anti-corrosive,
fire-resistant, and beautiful in color. It is a commonly used raised floor.
Aluminum Raised Access Floor Panels
The metal raised floor
is made of aluminum alloy or steel by casting or die-casting, and the upper
surface is pasted with antistatic cutting surface. The advantages of aluminum raised
flooring are: high strength, little effect of temperature and humidity, high
accuracy of the floor, easy to guarantee key dimensions, smooth ground after
laying, small gaps in the joint, and improved antistatic effect. However, aluminum
access flooring is expensive, and it is generally installed in the main
computer room of large, medium and small computers with high requirements.
Starting from the performance-price ratio, this plan recommends the use of composite
plastic veneer flooring as the floor building material for the computer room.
