EMI/RFI shielded mesh foil windows 9700
EMI/RFI shielded mesh foil windows and electrically conductive windows with high EMI/RFI shielding performance. Windows for Electromagnetic Compatibility.
For the highest possible EMI / RFI shielding performance, a woven electrically conductive microstructure of mesh is bonded between two layers of glass or plastic (stepped double layered window). The EVA combined with the mesh will work as reinforcement for the glass. Alternatively, a single layer of Mesh foil 9000 series is fixed onto one side of a single glass or plastic window with self-adhesive (single layered window).
This can be done by laminating or edge bonding. The EMI-shielded mesh-foil windows can be provided with a silver bus bar, an electrically conductive gasket or can be supplied with a frame for easy mounting. Windows can optionally be provided with a water seal.

Single layer: Wire mesh fixed onto one side of a glass or plastic window | Double layer: Wire mesh bonded between two glass or plastic windows |
Note that it is also possible to laminate the wire mesh under a custom angle to prevent moiré effect on for example monitors or LCD displays. |

Please note: top layer can be affected by acid for example from the human skin. To protect the conductive layer, you can apply a transparent film or use the adhesive side on top. Max. working temperature 60 ºC.
Small optical defects are allowed in this product. If you require a product that has absolutely no optical defect then contact us for the "superior selected quality". Please realize that by the extreme caution taken in production, these products can be several times more expensive.
Light transmission
Opacity of mesh windows is 64.5%. A lack of available light should not be a concern, since an average pair of sunglasses allows less than 9% light to come through.
Applications
- LCD displays
- Membrane switches
- Touch screens
- Defense / Avionics etc.
- Devices for medical technology
