Electri-Flex Offers Liquatite® Conduit for
EMI/RFI Shielding Applications
Electri-Flex Company offers
three types of Liquatite® flexible electrical conduits with EMI/RFI shielding.
These liquidtight conduits permit traditional wiring solutions in shielding
applications, providing an alternative to costly, specialized shielded cable
assemblies. They are designed to protect sensitive electronic circuits in
applications such as communications, radar and data transmission. All versions
are designed to accept industry standard liquidtight connectors and address the
problems of assembly and grounding.
Electri-Flex’s Liquatite EMI/RFI
shielding conduit is available in three types.
Type EMS offers a
shielding effectiveness from 126 dB @ 1 MHz to nearly 100 dB @ 1 GHz with a
temperature rating of -55° C to 105°
C. EMS features a flexible core constructed of a helically wound, interlocked
strip of bronze. An all-temperature PVC jacket is extruded over the core,
resulting in a sealed, waterproof raceway when assembled with liquidtight
fittings.
Type LAS, UL Listed, is
a flexible steel conduit with a galvanized steel core, over which a tinned
copper shielding braid is applied. The outer jacket is flexible PVC with a
temperature rating of -20° to 60°
C with a shielding effectiveness from 126 dB @ 1 MHz to 66 dB @ 1 GHz.
Type EMSP is a hybrid of
LAS and EMS, but gets further screening protection from a tinned copper
shielding braid under the flexible jacket. With the same working temperatures
as EMS, EMSP's shielding effectiveness ranges from 126 dB @ 1 MHz to 120 dB @ 1
GHz.
