Prevent Electromagnetic interference in electronic devices by Super-Metals

The challenging demand of an enclosure for electronic equipments is the potential to treat as a shield from the electromagnetic interference. EMI is basically the destruction of the electronic equipments or their components by unnecessary electromagnetic disturbance. RFI is also similar to EMI that excels over smaller area of the whole frequency band.

A circuit or equipment that conducts the electric current can develop EMI. An aim in electronic unit design is to attain electromagnetic suitability of components in a configuration and between that system and other equipments that it will face in the service conditions. A barrier is kept between a source and receptor that prevents the strength of interference acts as EMI shield.


Shielding should be performed with extreme care because inadequate use could complicate the conditions. The following shielding choices serve through reflection therefore precaution must be followed to keep the microwaves away in the correct direction from the areas of safety. Wireless equipments for example Wi-FI and phones must not be placed in the place of shielding. In few cases, shielding may cause an increase in local fields, therefore extreme care is needed to keep the conditions under control.

Increased body voltage- Usually the electric fields are not bounced back only in fact are also conducted by the shielding materials, it is extremely crucial to consider the exposure to electric field and microwaves to prevent increased exposure towards you. The wires are configured in the floors or behind the walls.

High dB security-  The shielding material must have adequate security factor to decrease the penetration of the microwaves via the shield. A security factor of 20dB is not sufficient in various situations and the leakage may result into internal reflection. Additionally, the gaps in the shield can widely decrease the shielding efficiency. The distance from the material also affects its efficiency.
The High quality Super Metals such as Silver and Mumetal can be bought from Heanjia. The shielding material can be connected to curtains to decrease the way in of external radiation into home. The shielding components have slight transparency.

Shielded cables can be utilized to decrease the exposure of electrical field. Although they may cause an increase in local intermediate frequencies, therefore it is essential to maintain the distance from the shielded wire.

To decrease the exposure level, it is preferred to ensure that sleeping areas are at some distance from the unshielded wires in the wires and walls, such as power and Ethernet cables. Select the wooden frames rather metallic frames to prevent the exposure of electric field towards you.

Not all metals are fit for magnetic field shielding. You should choose a metal with good permeability rating, like Mu-Metal. Few other materials recommended are nickel based alloys and carbon steel.

Keep in mind that shielding can be a complicated procedure, although as you are necessarily reflecting the magnetic fields. You should completely enclose the source. However this doesn’t become feasible and can be costly as well. So the thing is to either solve the problem or maintain the gap from the source.
