RFI Shielding Wire Mesh - Installation
Although we are not application engineers, we have the following examples of how some of our customers have installed the copper mesh in some shielded enclosures and rooms. The flexible wire mesh is installed on all four walls, the ceiling and floor with each mesh panel overlapping the next by three inches.
The mesh is fastened securely on 12-inch centers with staples and adhesive or casein glue. Each of the four corners has a strap that leads to an earthen ground. These grounding straps are formed by folding a 9-inch wide length of mesh into a three-inch strip.
One end of strap is attached to the mesh in the room corners, mechanically or with solder, and the other ends are attached to ground by a licensed electrician. The mesh is often covered with sheet rock to protect it.
TWP INC is only a wire mesh supplier and fabricator. We have no RFI engineers in our staff, but we suggest that you consult an RFI/EMI expert.
