EMI-Shield AL2.5 is applied like wallpaper,
covering all surfaces: floor, walls and ceiling. Other than normal
cleanliness, and dust free, no special preparation is required.
The foil may be stapled
or glued in-place.
Special ordered with
a Non-Conductive Pressure Sensitive Adhesive (PSA).
For maximum effectiveness, seams may be taped with
electrically conductive adhesive foil tape.
We recommend a minimum of 3″ overlap (6"
wide) using non-conductive adhesive foil tape or a minimum 1.5" (3' wide)
using conductive adhesive foil tape.
Do not solder or weld EMI-Shield AL5

not recommended for floor covering. Other than normal
cleanliness, and dust free, no special preparation is required.
The foil may be

Pressure Sensitive Adhesive (PSA)
is NOT available for AL10.
For maximum effectiveness,
we recommend butt jointing the AL10 and taping the seams with
electrically conductive adhesive foil tape.
We recommend 3"

EMI-Shield
AL20 is applied like lightweight paneling,
covering all surfaces: walls and ceiling. Other than normal
cleanliness, and dust free, no special preparation is required.
The panels are
not self supporting.
The foil
panels may be screwed (self drilling screw recommended) (wall systems) or
glued in-place (floor systems).
For maximum effectiveness, seams
should be taped with
5 mil Aluminum or 5 mil Copper electrically conductive adhesive foil tape.
We recommend
butt jointing the panels and taping the seams with 4" wide electrically
conductive foil tape. 6"
wide non-conductive adhesive foil tape can also be used, but not
recommended.

EMI-Shield AL5 Tape
is applied like any tape with a release. The tape is used to RF seal the
seams of foil or foil panels.
The 4"
wide, electrically conductive PSA is
ideal for sealing the seams.
The 6" wide,
non-conductive PSA is used to frame out all the corners and intersections
between walls, ceiling and floor, before the foil rolls are applied.
The 1" wide
electrically conductive tape is used to electrically bond all foil rolls, if
they were applied with non-conductive PSA.

Wear correct gloves when installing
