ARE YOU DESIGNING TO PREVENT INTERFERENCE
OR FIXING AN EXISTING PROBLEM?

If performance in your application is critical, and commodity unshielded conduit will not solve the problem, dBzSHIELD may be your solution. Are you concerned about equipment required to be in compliance with the European CE standard? Using dBzSHIELD shielded flex conduits can assist in the reduction of emissions.
When planning for critical equipment protection, cable runs through Shielded Flexible Conduits are an option to be considered along with filters, enclosures and other specialized shielding materials as part of the complete attenuation system.

COMMON CABLE INTERFERENCE and MANAGEMENT PROBLEMS

Meeting Attenuation Requirements

Power and signal wire and cable are susceptible to interference from adjacent equipment and devices.

Power and signal wire and cable may cause interference with adjacent equipment and devices.

Emissions from one cable are radiating onto an adjacent cable.

Cable shielding (screening) is not adequate, and redesigning the cable is not a preferred solution.

The cable system attenuation requirements include immunity against environmental sources of interference.

Potential sources of interference cover a broad frequency spectrum, including low (KHz) and high (MHz) frequencies.

How dBzSHIELD Can Help

Shielded (screened) flexible metallic core conduit provides physical and electrical isolation

Tested for shielding effectiveness from 10KHz - 18GHz

If using shielded cable, dBzSHIELD supplements cable shielding

May allow use of readily available standard cables versus custom designs.

Can be used only where needed to fix problem areas

Installation and Maintenance, Sourcing and Cost Containment

Conduit needs to withstand multiple environmental factors.

Maintenance access to cable inside conduit is required.

Low toxicity conduit jacket (sheath) is required

Routing for cables must incorporate curves.

Cables need the physical protection of conduit.

Cable/conduit segment lengths are long or variable

An enclosure will not be used for termination.

Specific length or kitted cable/conduit/connectors segment lengths are preferred.

How dBzSHIELD Can Help

Installs in one half the time of rigid conduit. Conduit is easy to prepare and fittings assemble quickly.

Uses cost-effective, easy to assemble fittings.

Removable fittings allow for service or replacement of cables; dBSHIELD can be relocated

Many packaging options available

Longer lengths typically available, which reduces waste and labor/supplies for splices.

Flexible physical protection to accomodate curves in cable routing.

Suitable for outdoor installation; consult tech data for specific attributes

Terminate inside an enclosure or where no enclosure is used

Avoid costly custom cable designs or cable redesign; may allow use of industry standard cables

All dBzSHIELD Shielded Flexible Conduits are RoHS and WEEE compliant

Standards sizes from 3/8 inch to 2 inch (US Trade Size) with selected products up to 4 inch
