RF Shielding Curtains-many uses!
RF Shielding Curtains-many uses! RF Shielding Curtains made with Conductive Metalized Textiles, block the passage or RFI/EMI. This characteristic makes them useful in many ways! One of the major uses of RF Shielding Curtains is in warehouses, where they make keeping accurate inventory records easy. Areas of the warehouse can be "sectioned off" from other areas, eliminating "RF Crosstalk" between adjacent areas during scanning. In a similar fashion, curtained separation of hospital telemetry areas enables wireless collection of vital...

RF Shielded Enclosures-Test with Confidence!
RF Shielded Enclosures-Test with Confidence! Pre-Compliance EMC Testing requires a low ambient environment for accurate testing. The only Source of interference in the testing enclosure should be the Device Under Testing (DUT). RF Shielded enclosures are based on the Faraday Cage Principle which states that electromagnetic fields approach the outside of the enclosure, they will not pass through the walls of the enclosure. The interior of the testing enclosure should have no ambient RF radiation higher than the level that...

Compatibility-Succeeding by Working together!
Compatibility-Succeeding by Working together! I have forty years of experience of operating a dental practice. Dentistry is full of Type A personalities. Type A personalities tend to clash much of the time, the resulting tension makes working in the same environment difficult at times due to personality differences. In a shared electromagnetic environment, the same clashing can occur. All electronic devices emit RF radiation, if the radiation present in the environment allows the devices to work optimally, the devices are...

Conductive Textiles are used Everywhere!
Conductive Textiles are used Everywhere! The medical field has many uses for conductive textiles. Conductive metalized textiles act as sensors, measuring vital functions such as brain waves, and temperature. Hospital beds become smart, sensing a patient leaving the bed. Pressure sensing buttons summon nurses to the patient's room when necessary. These even detect wetness of the bedding! Metalized textiles are useful in physical therapy as electrodes applying current to stimulate muscles or nerves as part of the patient's healing and...

Relax in Protective Comfort-Silverell!
Relax in Protective Comfort-Silverell! Winter is a cold season, and it's nice to relax in comfortable Silverell® Wellness Garments. Garments made of Silverell® are comfortable due to the thermal conductivity of Silver, the most conductive element! What makes these garments comfortable is the conductivity of the silver in the yarn taking your natural body heat and balancing it evenly thought the garment, eliminating "hot spots" and "cold spots", creating one comfortable temperature. The resulting comfort from the warmth and the...

Military uses for Conductive Textiles!
Military uses for Conductive Textiles! The Department of Defense has many uses for Conductive Textiles. Obviously, the military has many sophisticated electronic devices in their vehicles, whether planes, tanks, or boats. The lives of the soldiers depend on these devices working smoothly without any interference from RFI or EMI. Proper RF Shielding allows these devices to work together efficiently in a shared electromagnetic environment. Conductive textiles are the best shielding materials for vehicles due to their light weight and flexibility....

Pre-Compliance EMC Testing-Find out Early!
Pre-Compliance EMC Testing-Find out Early! I always like to find out what I'm in for as soon as possible! I always love "practicing" for a test that is coming my way. They help me to sharpen my skills in the areas where I am underprepared. Final EMC Compliance tests must be passed prior to marketing electronic devices. Pre-Compliance EMC Testing is a very practical way to prepare for the Final EMC Compliance test. Testing a product early and often during...

RF Interference-Controlled by Shielding!
RF Interference-Controlled by Shielding! RF Interference (RFI) and Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) can wreak havoc with the function of electronic devices. In our wireless world, the amount of RF radiation present in our environment is always increasing. Add the man-made RF radiation to the natural forms of RFI and EMI such as snow, rain and electrical storms, solar flares, and the auroras and there's a whole lot of radiation going on around here! Three things cause an interference problem, a "noise...
