Cleaning and sanitization measures that work
Fear of the coronavirus or confirmed exposure has caused about half (49%) of data center owners to increase the frequency of regular cleanings, according to a recent Uptime Institute flash survey. Even more (66%) have increased the frequency of sanitizations (disinfection) to eliminate (however transitorily) any possible presence of the novel coronavirus in their facilities.
In times of normal operation, most facilities conduct a thorough cleaning (the removal of particles, static and residue) on a regular basis, with frequency determined by need. These cleanings help data centers meet ISO 14644-1, as required by ASHRAE.
