Emcor EMI/RFI Enclosures Product Line
Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) is the technology of minimizing the electromagnetic interference of electrical or electronic devices or systems. Undesirable signals – Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) or Radio-Frequency Interference (RFI) – can be radiated from electronic equipment and received by another susceptible electronic system. This radiated electromagnetic energy can cause undesirable interference and improper operation of the receiving system. We currently offer two different levels of protection from EMI/RFI.
Emcor EMI/RFI Shielded Enclosures
Emcor’s rf Shielded Enclosures and accessories are engineered with performance in mind. These products are a perfect combination of quality and styling that shields your system effectively and presents it in an attractive package of which you can be proud. Tested to MIL-STD 285 at a certified test facility, Emcor’s shielded enclosures can provides attenuation in excess of 100 db in the E-field to 38 db performance at 1 GHz.

FCC Level Protection
FCC Protection Level Cabinet Performance
The graph above shows cabinet performance of FCC level products. Designs for EMI/RFI shielded cabinets vary considerably from manufacturer to manufacturer.
The ideal cabinet is a metal box with no seams or openings. Any opening in a cabinet creates a potential EMI/RFI path into and out of the cabinet. However, in the real world, openings are required for maintenance and ventilation of the equipment, as well as for electrical input. These openings must be covered by panels and/or doors which maintain electrical continuity by either metal-to-metal contact or by using conductive gaskets.
Military/Tempest Level Protection
