| CASE STUDY | ||
| STS Case Study 1 - Fire Extinguisher Discharge | ||
A county emergency radio dispatch telcom equipment room was inundated with fire extinguisher residue (carbon tetrachloride) after an accidental discharge in the facility. STS personnel responded immediately to mitigate the loss. A Motorola microwave radio with patch panel and fuse panel, DC power supplies, and UPS rack units were all covered in residue. Discussions with the county personnel and the manufacturer’s representative disclosed the backup unit was operational, but functionally limited, making the return of the microwave a time sensitive issue. The sensitivity of the microwave radio equipment meant special cleaning protocols would need to be established. The normal process utilizing an aqueous solution and deionized rinse would not work. Motorola agreed with STS’s proposed cleaning protocols, the process was applied, and the affected equipment was cleaned and returned within 48 hours. |

A lighting manufacturer’s production facility on Long Island was swamped with a rising river and five to ten feet of water affecting all of their production machinery, including lathes, millers, drill presses, punch presses, polishers, table saws, compressors and other related machinery. STS was brought in to restore all the affected equipment in the 50,000 sq ft facility in a timely manner. Utilizing STS’s experienced work crew all the work was completed in 72 hours, allowing the production facility to be back in business quickly, and saving the insurance company thousands of dollars in business interruption costs. |

| Case Study 3 - Church Fire Sends Smoke Throughout Attached School Over Christmas Vacation | ||
A church in Pennsylvania caught fire over the Christmas vacation sending smoke throughout the attached prep school. STS was contacted by the restoration contractor to perform on-site cleaning of all the school’s computers, including smart boards in the classrooms, office equipment, lab equipment, audio-video equipment, musical instruments and kitchen appliances. This work needed to be finished in time for the school’s reopening in five days after the New Year’s weekend. STS’s experienced work crew cleaned over 500 items over the New Years’s weekend to finish the project on time and on budget. |
