Company 'System Floor Technics' supplies and installs in 2 days (7min video) the 1.3 meter high floor around the Super Frame & Petal Platform of the ATLAS ITK ENDCAP detector. The floor measures 8.4x8.4 meters and is covered with 60x60cm ESD tiles
The raised floor is necessary because cables and cooling tubes must be reconnected approximately every 2/3 weeks under the detector (at the so-called Bulk Head) after the installation of a half ring of Petals on one Wheel
A partially raised floor has been considered but is still more inconvenient in this relatively small area in the Nikhef cleanroom H070 which is shared with the ETpathfinder project.
