Faraday Cage
43 dB noise reduction

In many applications, the signal-to-noise ratio can be improved only with the use of a Faraday cage. A
Faraday cage shields by suppressing the magnetic and electric parts of the electromagnetic waves due
to high surface conductance and high permeability. Both a stand-alone cage for use with an anti-vibration
table and a bench-top model are available. They are made of steel without the use of stainless steel or
aluminum and painted blue. The walls are of rugged construction and consist of coated punched sheet
metal. Both versions are of open-front design, but a front door can be provided on request. All instruments
can be grounded at one central grounding point, which can be freely positioned by the user.

Stand-alone Faraday Cage:

The stand-alone Faraday cage consists of two parts: the stand (lower
part) and the cage (upper part), which are mounted together in the
laboratory.

The height of the lower part is 80 cm (31.5 inch). A desk table, made
of wood (standard) or steel, can be placed between the lower and
upper parts. The shape of the table depends on your requirements.
In accordance with the set-up and dimensions, a vibration-isolated
table can be placed beneath the table without any contact with the
cage.

Bench-top Faraday Cage:

For use on a laboratory bench, a one-part Faraday cage is available.

A bath made of steel is welded to the bottom of the cage.
