First Case cleans data halls, UPS rooms and raised floors to an ESD-safe protocol, while the equipment keeps running. Dust strains cooling, sensors and electronics. Our ESD cleaning also covers racks and the space beneath the floor, protected against ESD: electrostatic discharge, the spark that destroys running electronics.
We clean rooms, cabinets and surfaces with ESD-safe agents. No water, no static charge, no interruption to the operation. On multiple live sites we do this three times a year: 1.200+ racks cleaned inside, fans treated with an ionisation gun where needed.
The cabling runs under the raised floor, and that is where most of the dust collects. We clean the plenum, the space under the tiles where the air and cables run, without disturbing the airflow. The computer floor comes up tile by tile, no more than five at a time for stability, and both sides are cleaned with an ESD HEPA vacuum: filtration that captures 99.99% of particles above 0.3 µm.
Every action follows an ESD protocol: grounding, materials and method are matched to keeping sensitive electronics running. Each room has its own written work instruction: what gets cleaned, what does not, and how.
ESD-safe cleaning of rooms, cabinets and racks. Surfaces and floors, cleaned while the equipment runs. No water, no charge. Designated racks are cleaned inside, fans treated with an ionisation gun where needed.
Cleaning of UPS and battery rooms. Dust-free matters most here: heat and dust are a bad combination around batteries and power electronics.
The walking surface and the tiles: up tile by tile, no more than five at a time for stability, both sides cleaned with an ESD HEPA vacuum, then damp-mopped.
Cleaning of the plenum. The space under the tiles where the air and cables run, often untouched for years, full of dust. In large halls, the data cable trays are included.
Working to ESD protocol. Grounding, materials and method matched to sensitive, running electronics. Safe for the equipment.
One-off or periodic. After each round: a measurement, a signed handover protocol and a report per location. We draw up a schedule that fits the contamination level of your room.

Four steps, from risk assessment to handover with measurement and report.
We look at the room, the equipment and the airflow, and set the safe working method.
A work instruction per room, planned at a time that does not disturb the operation.
Cleaning while everything runs. Grounded, dust-free, without disturbing the cooling.
After each round: a measurement, a signed handover protocol and a report per location. A periodic schedule if you want one.

ESD cleaning is the cleaning of data halls, racks, raised floors and UPS and battery rooms, protected against electrostatic discharge (ESD). We use ESD-safe cleaning agents, earthed equipment and clothing, and materials that do not build up charge. Dust burdens cooling, sensors and electronics, which is why we clean into the racks and under the floor. For the raised floor we use an ESD HEPA vacuum, with filtration that captures 99.99% of particles above 0.3 µm.
Yes. We clean while the equipment keeps running: no water, no static charge, no interruption to the operation. The raised floor comes up tile by tile, no more than five tiles at a time for stability. We clean the space under the floor without disturbing the airflow. Every action follows an ESD protocol, with a work instruction per room.
That depends on the level of contamination in your room. We clean once or periodically, on a schedule matched to it. At multiple live data centres in the Netherlands we clean three times a year, including the interiors of 1.200+ racks.
A measurement, a signed handover protocol and a report per site, with photos where permitted. Beforehand we agree per room what is and is not cleaned, and before starting we carry out an LMRA, a Last Minute Risk Assessment. Photos are taken only with permission and solely for reporting.
Server rooms and racks, UPS and battery rooms, the raised floor and the plenum beneath it, where the air and cables run. Designated racks are cleaned inside, with fans treated with an ionisation gun where needed. In large halls we include the data cable trays. In UPS and battery rooms a dust-free space matters even more: heat and dust are a poor combination around batteries and power electronics.
