Enjoy all the comfort and beauty of carpet -- and floors that are nearly static-free.

Engineered to protect against electrostatic discharge (ESD), Lees Dataguard meets the stringent NFPA99 test method specifications required by IBM and Burroughs.

IBM NFPA Method 99 RTG:
Min. 1.5 X 105 ohms, Max. 2.0 X 1010 ohms

IBurroughs NFPA Method 99 RTT:
Min. 1.5 X 105 ohms, Max. 2.0 X 109 ohms

Lees Dataguard creates an attractive, comfortable workspace that is easy to maintain. Three patterns in six colorways are available in a design-friendly modular format. Benefits of advanced performance features include improved acoustics, reduced glare, reduced leg and back fatigue, permanent stain resistance and superior soil resistance. Lees Dataguard is backed by a lifetime warranty against edge ravel, delamination, cupping, dishing or doming.

Important Note: The first and most important step when specifying carpet for electrical resistance performance is for the end-user or specifier to determine the resistance level required from the floorcovering. This information is available from the original equipment manufacturer of the equipment to be installed. Since each installation involves sophisticated and, most important, very sensitive equipment that is of a unique nature, the carpet tile manufacturer is not able to determine the required resistance level; making this determination should be standard procedure for the original equipment manufacturer of any electrostatic sensitive equipment and systems. Once the performance level for the space is determined, you can easily see whether Lees Dataguard, meeting both the IBM and Burroughs electrical resistance criteria, is suitable for the job.
