Applications
3M Electromagnetic Shielding Sleeves DS & FS
Series have superior flexibility and EMI shielding
effectiveness. They are used to shield cables in
automated equipment, metrology, and harnesses
from main board to display components.
Shielding Effectiveness
Shielding effectiveness depends on conductivity,
permeability, thickness of metallization, degree of
contact, smoothness of application surface,
strength and frequency of EMI signal, etc.
However, using standard tests and fixtures, it is
possible to determine a value for the attenuation.
