ESD & contamination check (zinc-whisker)
Records ESD, zinc-whisker contamination, cleaning, critical-environment controls, exceptions and sign-off for data centre work. A live form your crew fills on their phones, not a Word template you retype on every site.

When you need this form
Raised floor work, tile lifts and cabinet cleans in a data hall all raise the same risk: static discharge into live hardware, and zinc whiskers shaken loose from older plated floor tiles and supports. Crews run this check before and after critical environment work. Operators of colocation and hyperscale sites treat contamination control as a condition of access, not a nice extra.
Contamination arguments get expensive fast, because hardware failures are blamed on whoever was last in the room. A live check timestamps the wrist strap and mat tests, holds the subfloor photos, and names the technician. When an operator or a hardware vendor asks what state the space was in, the answer already exists with evidence attached.
What good looks like
- Wrist straps and ESD mats tested and the result recorded, not assumed.
- Subfloor and tile supports inspected for zinc whisker growth, with photos.
- Exact tiles and cabinets accessed listed by grid reference.
- Suspected contamination isolated and escalated rather than disturbed or swept.
- Technician and site escort sign-off, timed to the access window.
ESD & contamination check (zinc-whisker), answered
Is this a PDF or Word template?
Neither. It is a live form: your crew opens it on their phones, ticks it through, attaches photos and signs on the glass. Every submission is timestamped, GPS-pinned and stored as proof.
What is a zinc whisker check in a data centre?
An inspection of raised floor tiles, supports and subfloor surfaces for fine metallic growths that break loose and cause shorts. Findings are photographed, isolated and escalated rather than disturbed during the check.
When should ESD controls be verified?
Before any work that touches raised floors, cabinets or live hardware, and again at the end. Record the strap and mat tests with a time so the evidence sits against that access window.
Can I buy just this one form?
