Shielding Performance

Plane Wave: >100dB from 50MHz to 18GHz *

Typical Applications

  • Academic
  • Aerospace & Aviation
  • Automotive
  • Commercial
  • Defense & Government
  • Electronics (Consumer, Industrial, Power)
  • Research & Development
  • Telecommunications

The high-spec modular structure is traditionally used for high performance shielding. Panels are galvanized sheet steel bonded to a wood core that are attached via framing joints. The RF panel system is typically selfsupported via Unistrut so no attachment to a parent wall or to a slab above is required.

Tapered Chamber

Shielding Performance

Plane Wave: >100dB from 50MHz to 18GHz *

A function of RF construction is to create a noise free environment to retain RF signals inside of the shielded environment. To complete the RF shielded environment, all accessories and facilities associated with the enclosure will meet or exceed the minimum functional requirements (as listed below). This includes but is not limited to the entire six-sided RF enclosure, the RF door, waveguides for HVAC and/or piping, and RF filters for electrical. The Tapered Chamber creates a noise free environment to allow for performance of VHF/UHF measurements. They work extremely well for high-specification requirements.

Our custom, turn-key RF Cabinets are used to test smaller pieces of equipment and can achieve remarkable shielding attenuation. Cabinets can be designed to any size and will include at least one state-of-the-art, high-spec labyrinth door. Enclosure penetrations can also be customized to suit the customers’ needs and requirements.

RF Swing Door

Black Anodized

Our State-of-the-Art, High-Spec RF Swing door is designed for industrial environments. The door leaf and frame are made from heavy duty galvanized steel. Notable features include Fabric-Over-Foam gaskets and our custom labyrinth contact surface which provides a durable and reliable door with minimal maintenance.

Doors are designed to match enclosure performance.

RF Double Door

Similar to our Personnel Door design, the High-Spec RF Double Door provides the same shielding attenuation as the single leaf option, but with enhanced mechanical operation. Notable features include a state-of-the-art automatic latching mechanism to ensure a complete RF seal.

  • Plug-and-Play electric automation.

    NO COMPRESSOR REQUIRED.

  • Clear opening with no mullion required
  • Both leafs are active and provide Fully Automatic operation.
  • Full integration with most Fire detection and suppression system

Doors are designed to match enclosure performance.

RF Waveguide

Mechanical penetrations such as ventilation panels can easily be designed to maintain the shielding effectiveness of the enclosure. This is accomplished by maintaining their thickness to width dimensions at a ratio of 4:1 or greater. Penetrations designed in this manner function as a “waveguide below cutoff.” In effect, their physical design "guides" the electromagnetic wave so that it becomes “cut-off” reduced or attenuated by being reflected or absorbed while attempting to pass through the opening.

RF Power Filter

Every conductor which penetrates the enclosure, including neutral and signal return lines must be filtered. Selection of a power line filter depends on many factors (voltage, current, 1 phase, 3 phase power consumption, etc.) Signal line filters must be selected in accordance with the type of signal being filtered (digital, analog, clock). There are no set rules for filter selection. Each wire entering or leaving a shielded area must be analyzed and categorized for its particular characteristics before a filter can be specified. It should be emphasized that the shielding of an enclosure can be completely compromised by the selection of improper filters. Therefore, it advisable to consult with an expert or manufacturer before attempting to select specific filter(s).
