IMPORTANT
ESD footwear requirements
The ESD shoes used in the EPA must have a resistance of < 5 MOhm according to IEC 61340-4-3 at climate class 1 (12 % relative humidity and +23 °C). In order to achieve charges of < 30 volts of human body charge during the walking test (at 12 % relative humidity and +23 °C), we recommend using the following ESD shoes: Weeger ESD clog, art. 48512-30, www.schuh-weeger.de.
Note: Measurement results can be affected by ESD clothing, ambient conditions, measurement equipment, cleanliness of the floor and the test personnel.
Application
Ambient Air Temperature
Maximum | +30 °C |
Minimum | +10 °C |
Relative Air Humidity
Maximum | 80 % r.h. |
Dew Point
Beware of condensation!
The substrate and uncured floor must be at least 3 °C above dew point to
reduce the risk of condensation or blooming on the floor finish.
Substrate Temperature
Maximum | +30 °C |
Minimum | +10 °C |
Substrate Moisture Content
≤ 4% pbw using Sikafloor®-150 / Sikafloor®-150 PLUS
Test method: Sika®-Tramex meter, CM - measurement or Oven-dry-method.
No rising moisture according to ASTM (Polyethylene-sheet).
Osmosis caused by rising moisture or incorrect primer application is not
covered by the product warranty.
Substrates above 4% but less than 6% pbw maybe primed using Sikafloor®-
151,
Please note Sikafloor-151 offers no protection against rising moisture.
Waiting Time / Overcoating
Waiting time / Overcoating

Consumption
| Layer | Product | Consumption |
| Primer | Sikafloor®-150 Sikafloor®-150 Plus Sikafloor®-151 | 1-2 × 0.3–0.5 kg/m² (~0.2-0.4L/m2) |
| Conductive primer | Sikafloor® Conductive Set Sikafloor®-220 W Conductive | 1 earthing point per 200–300 m², minimum 2 per room. 0.08–0.10 kg/m² (~0.7-0.85L/m2) |
| Top coat | Sikafloor®-381 ECF filled with quartz sand F34 | 2.5 kg/m² (~1.55L/m2) Binder + quartz sand 1 +10 °C to +15°C: without filling +15°C to +20°C: filled 1 : 0.1 by weight +20 °C to +30°C: filled 1 : 0.2 by weight |
All values have been determined using quartz sand Sika Aggregate-508 (0.1-0.3 mm).. Other quartz sand type will have an effect on the product, such as filling grade, levelling properties and aesthetics. Generally, the lower the temperature the less the filling grade.
Note: Consumption data is theoretical and does not allow for any additional material due to surface porosity, surface profile, variations in level, wastage or any other variations. Apply the Product to a test area to calculate the exact consumption for the specific substrate conditions and proposed application equipment.
APPLICATION
ESD CONDUCTIVITY MEASUREMENTS
Recommended number of conductivity measurements is specified in the following table:
| Ready applied area | Number of measurements |
| < 10 m² | 6 |
| ≥ 10 m² and < 100 m² | 10 to 20 |
| ≥ 100 m² and < 1000 m² | 50 |
| ≥ 1000 m² and < 5000 m² | 100 |
If the measurements yield values that are outside of the agreed specification, follow these steps:
- Carry out one additional measurement within a radius of approximately 30 cm around the original measuring point.
If the value of the new measurement meets the agreed specification, the original measurement can be disregarded.
If the value of the new measurement does not meet the agreed specification, repeat the measurement described above until the fulfilment of the requirements have been verified.
If the requirements cannot be verified, contact Sika Technical Services.
INSTALLATION OF EARTHING POINTS
Refer to Sika Method Statement: Sika Method Statement — Sikafloor® mixing and application
Number of earthing connections per room: Minimum of 2 earthing connections. The optimum number of earthing connections depends on the local conditions and must be specified on drawings or other contract documentation.
