Client: Turner Construction for ASCO Corporation

Turner Construction was doing an interior demolition of the old ATT Shannon Labs building in Florham Park, NJ for Jones Lang Lasalle, who had just sold it to ASCO, the world’s leading manufacturer of power transfer switches.  Quantum Technology was invited in to purchase the assets and decommission the data center equipment.  While we were there we purchased and resold UPS equipment, Liebert air conditioners, PDU’s, transformers, fire suppressant, and the cafeteria equipment as well.

Project Details:
There was a full company cafeteria in the building. Quantum removed and resold counters, sinks, ovens and refrigeration. Ask us about used cafeteria & food service equipment. The detonators on Halon tanks can explode if not deactivated and and handled properly. Quantum Technology technicians are trained in deactivation and removal. All halon is recycled. Sealed lead acid batteries are a hazard. When strung in a series there is enough voltage to burn, break bones or kill a man.  Quantum technicians wear Arc Flash suits, used special insulated tools and mats. Don’t hire a company unless they are trained and experienced in handling. There was plenty of electrical equipment, conduit and cable to decommission. Check out the picture of the ceiling. Most new tenants do not want old fiber, cat cable and power cables. They prefer to run their own brand new material. Call Quantum for cable removal.
