The author provides a full-range of cost options on how to prevent EMI: from inexpensive enclosures that are adequate for many situations to the most advanced shielding techniques used in scientific applications. This unique book will show the reader how to select the most suitable technique for the application: something that will do the job, yet avoid expensive and time-consuming "overkill." Design of Shielded Enclosures provides a variety of practical techniques that will reveal how well an enclosure is working without a lot of expensive and time-consuming tests. This book will also show how to determine when detailed testing is necessary. Get quick, effective, and economical solutions to pressing engineering problems that are halting delivery, stopping production and costing money Learn the best tricks of the trade from a certified EMI professional with years of experience and a wealth of knowledge about practical applications Discover important testing and troubleshooting techniques for EMI shielding

The definitive reference on electromagnetic shielding materials, configurations, approaches, and analyses This reference provides a comprehensive survey of options for the reduction of the electromagnetic field levels in prescribed areas. After an introduction and an overview of available materials, it discusses figures of merit for shielding configurations, the shielding effectiveness of stratified media, numerical methods for shielding analyses, apertures in planar metal screens, enclosures, and cable shielding. Up to date and comprehensive, Electromagnetic Shielding: Explores new and innovative techniques in electromagnetic shielding Presents a critical approach to electromagnetic shielding that highlights the limits of formulations based on plane-wave sources Analyzes aspects not normally considered in electromagnetic shielding, such as the effects of the content of the shielding enclosures Includes references at the end of each chapter to facilitate further study The last three chapters discuss frequency-selective shielding, shielding design procedures, and uncommon ways of shielding—areas ripe for further research. This is an authoritative, hands-on resource for practicing telecommunications and electrical engineers, as well as researchers in industry and academia who are involved in the design and analysis of electromagnetic shielding structures.

This is a guide for the system designers and installers faced with the day-to-day issues of achieving EMC, and will be found valuable across a wide range of roles and sectors, including process control, manufacturing, medical, IT and building management. The EMC issues covered will also make this book essential reading for product manufacturers and suppliers - and highly relevant for managers as well as technical staff. The authors' approach is thoroughly practical - all areas of installation EMC are covered, with particular emphasis on cabling and earthing. Students on MSc and CPD programmes will also find in this book some valuable real-world antidotes to the academic treatises. The book is presented in two parts: the first is non-technical, and looks at the need for EMC in the context of systems and installations, with a chapter on the management aspects of EMC. The second part covers the technical aspects of EMC, looking at the various established methods which can be applied to ensure compatibility, and setting these in the context of the new responsibilities facing system builders. EMC for Systems and Installations is designed to complement Tim Williams' highly successful EMC for Product Designers. - Practical guide to EMC design issues for those involved in systems design and installation - Complementary title to Williams' bestselling EMC for Product Designers - Unique guidance for installers on EMC topics

The first volume ever to cover all aspects of the subject, Architectural Electromagnetic Shielding Handbook provides the practicing architect/engineer with a comprehensive guide to electromagnetic shielding. This practical handbook is a one-stop source for every form of shielding enclosure now used in commercial and government test laboratories, communication and computer centers, and electromagnetic hardened facilities designed to prevent electromagnetic interference (EMI) from reaching either a sensitive piece of equipment or an unauthorized agency. Additional features include: extensive supporting information on penetrations such as doors, vents, piping, and electromagnetic filters for each type of shielding complete descriptions of modular, welded, and architectural forms of shielding as well as design checklists for shielded enclosure installation detailed descriptions of performance specifications and methods of testing necessary to prove performance Now you can have practical design and manufacturing techniques for solving ESD problems associated with sophisticated equipment used in a home or office environment. This book takes the mystery out of ESD by showing how it is generated and how it affects electronic devices, such as integrated circuits. It provides practical guidelines and the rationale on how ESD solutions can work for you.

With electromagnetic compliance (EMC) now a major factor in the design of all electronic products, it is crucial to understand how electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding products are used in various industries. Focusing on the practicalities of this area, Advanced Materials and Design for Electromagnetic Interference Shielding comprehensively
