‘Emi Shielding’

An Engineeringtalk guide

Start with the news release Souriau creates optical contact for harsh settings from Souriau, which we summarised at the time by saying "Souriau, in partnership with several aircraft manufacturers, has developed the Elio high-performance optical contact for applications in harsh environments.". Several months prior to that, we featured the news release Harwin Maxi clip handles 0.7-1mm wall thicknesses from Harwin: "Harwin has broadened its range of surface-mount EMI/RFI shield clips with the launch of the Maxi clip, which handles protective cans with wall thicknesses of between 0.7 and 1mm. ".

In October 2009, we covered the news from Wago Corp - take a look at Wago enhances power supply range which says: "Wago Corporation has added a UPS controller (and batteries), as well as buffer and redundancy modules to the 787 Series advanced power supply line. ".

Take a look also at the news release from ITT Interconnect Solutions, Metr1x connectors withstand harsh conditions, as well as Schurter power entry model has overload protection from Schurter, and Bal Seal to show contact at Elektrotechniek from Bal Seal Engineering.
