Maintenance and Care of Raised Floor

2022.10.08

• Lift trucks are necessary to move heavy loads, inserting between the floor panels and the wheels of a rigid body (eg. plywood) for proper load distribution.

• If you’re operating on a raised floor with a transverse structure (where the tightness is guaranteed by the seal of the subfloor), you must pay special attention not to damage or remove seals of the columns and crossbars: in this specific case, if this happens, you need to assess whether it is appropriate to provide for their replacement.

• In case you need to remove and the posing of the raised floor that must be compulsorily using the proper tools to remove, in any way, avoiding mechanical means to make a lever between the panels.

• To replace the panels that make up the raised floor, it is recommended to perform the procedure with the utmost care, exerting a slight pressure, but at the same time ensuring that the neighboring panels are placed in the correct way.

• It should be particularly scrupulous in case you are performing maintenance on a raised floor that includes accessories, not to damage the connections.

• If maintenance involves cutting or drilling panels with accessories, you should keep a distance from the edge of the panel, to ensure the strength of the concentrated load: You should not make cuts less than 10 cm from the edges and use the equipment most suitable depending on the type of panel.

• Finally, the raised floor must be installed in a dry and protected space, at a temperature between 5℃ and 35℃ and relative humidity between 40% and 75%.
