Electri-Flex Meets EMI/RFI Shielding Conduit Requirements for
Communications, Radar and Data Transmission Applications

Electri-Flex Company’s EMI/RFI flexible electrical Liquatite® conduit line is now presented in a new data sheet.  The literature details the features and benefits of Electri-Flex's EMI/RFI shielded conduit versions, which eliminate the need for expensive specialty assemblies in wiring applications for communications, radar and data transmission equipment.  A shielding effectiveness chart listing attenuation and test frequency is designed to help customers determine which conduit best fits their wiring needs.  For customers who must meet increasingly strict EMI/RFI requirements, this data sheet provides cost-effective wiring solutions. 

Electri-Flex’s EMI/RFI Liquatite line of shielded conduit offers high quality construction of bronze flexible cores or copper braids, which provide exceptional shielding, and modifiable PVC jackets to accommodate a variety of environmental conditions.  Type LAS Conduit is a UL listed version with a temperature rating of -20°C to 60°C.  It features a galvanized steel core and is coated with a tinned copper shielding braid.  A flame retardant PVC jacket is then applied over the core and braid.  LAS offers shielding effectiveness of 126 dB @ 1 MHz to 66 dB @ 1 GHz. Type EMS Conduit, with a temperature rating of -55°C to 105°C, features a helically wound interlocked bronze strip for enhanced shielding performance. An all-temperature PVC jacket is applied over the core, ensuring a weatherproof raceway. EMS offers shielding effectiveness of 126 dB @ 1 MHz to nearly 100dB @ 1 GHz.

Type EMSP Conduit is a hybrid combining the bronze core of Type EMS with the tinned copper braid of Type LAS to provide the highest degree of shielding effectiveness, from 126dB @ 1 MHz to 120 dB @ 1 GHz. Its PVC jacket offers a temperature rating of -55C° to 105°C.
