Installation
Installatio
procedure
1 The floor must
be thy, free of any alien materials and level. (reference:
should maintain a level surface over a length of 3m with a
maximum offset of about 3mm)
2 Concrete floor must be smoothed and when copper tapes are
to applied to ceramic tiles and wooder floor, any holes, cracks,
gaps. etc. should be completely clogged with filler.
3 Tile and adhesive should be stored on the site under normal
temperature(25t) for at least 24 hours pnorto beginning installation
and shall be stored under normal temperature(25 t)for at least
48 hours after completion of work.
4 Tile of same LOT should be used for repeated process.
5 It is strongly recommended to use adhesive approved by this
firm, and a thorough mixing is required before use.
. Size of adhesive applying spatula (groove intervals: 1.0mm,
groove width: 2.0mm, groove height: 2.0mm)
. Using appropriate size spatula, apply conductive adhesive
evenly over the floor.
. To ensure good cohesion, be sure to keep open time(15 minutes)
and finish work within workable period of tirne(1 hour).
6 Upon elapse
of drying time for adhesive, tiles are to be pressed while
working toward outside from th middle of tile alignment line.
7 For welding,
V-shape groove in the depth of about 2/3 tile thickness will
be made along tile joints wilE 48 hours have left following
the laying work of tiles and adhesive has hardened.
8 Using PVC welding
rod of 3-4mm diameter, welding is performed with welder.
9 Any protruding
parts in welded area will be cutoff with knife to become flush
with adjacent areas.
10 When additional
24 hours have lapsed following the completion of the above
processes, the finishec surface will be cleaned off with neutral
detergent using a sponge.
11 Upon completion
of laying processes, entire area will be evenly pressed with
a roller weighing 80kg for perfect adhesiveage and seating.
Caution
.Any excessive
adhesive remnant on the finished tile surface must be cleaned
oft with a soft cloth before being dried.
. Care should be
taken not to expose the finished surface to the sun, heat
or temperature above 30C before adhesive is properly hardened(48
hours), for there is a risk of undesirable material expansion.
.Do not walk on
the finished floor until adhesive has completely gone through
a hardening process that normally takes 48 hours.
Grounding
KOSTAT Tiles primarily
used for eliminating static electricity and should therefore
be grounded so that any absorbed electricity can be discharged
to outside. The method of grounding can be selected depending
on the site conditions and preference of user.
Use of grounding
terminals on building
Route the copper tape(copper wire) of sufficient length remaning
from laying work toward grounding terminal and connect to
ground card for final installation at the ground terminal.
Where no grounding
terminal is present
Connect to ground mode via steel steel structure on the site.
Maintenance
. Never apply wax on the surface of products.
. Sand or any other alien material should be removed from
the floor since they may cause damage to the surface.
. The product is susceptible to filth from asphalt, lip stick,
some adhesive material, rubber wheels and rubber-backed carpets,
and should be protected from lighted cigarettes.
. Any dirt can be removed by usinq neutral deterqent, but
the deterqent should be removed by wiping the affected area
with lightly wet cloth.
