 EMI/RFI-shielded Faraday tent

Cost-effective and instant Installation 

The EMI/RFI-shielded Faraday tents are made of highly conductive, lightweight, and ultra-strong textiles. By default the Faraday tents are delivered with multiple ropes and self-standing frames so they can mounted to a ceiling or in the open. 

Typical applications are EMC experiments, RF measurements, mobile military applications, forensic applications, and or personal protection in the field. Our Faraday tents offer a mobile solution for only a fraction of the cost if compared to a conventional Faraday cage.

Applications
  • Computer and cell-phone forensics
  • Military field or Diplomatic use
  • Secure or TEMPEST communication
  • Radar-jammer protection
  • Electromagnetic allergy / electro-smog
  • Pre-compliance testing
  • Temporary EMI shielding
  • Reverberation chamber (RVC)
  • Mode-stirred chamber (MSC)
Advantages
  • Easy to mount and move mobile laboratory
  • Any size possible
  • Optionally supplied with a rigid reinforced floor
  • Single-layer Faraday tent: 40-60 dB up to 22.5 GHz
  • Double-layer Faraday tent: 70-90 dB up to 22.5 GHz

Shielding performance (dB)

Please note: These values are measured under laboratory conditions. Results may vary in other field application. Please read our Guarantee.

Mounting options

Our Faraday tents can optionally be supplied with a mounting frame so they can easily be installed as a stand-alone structure almost anywhere. Included in the kit are mounting ropes so you can install to a ceiling. Mounting ropes are generally used when the Faraday tent is installed inside a building in a permanent location. Please check photos and contact us if you have any question.

Additions (on request)

As illustrated in the technical drawing above, our Faraday tents can be supplied with the following options (clickable):

 

Please note: when you want to enter the tent with heavy equipment like vehicles, planes, or tanks you need a rigid floor and a tent with magnetic strips to the bottom so that the entrance of the tent can be fully opened.

Standard sizes/shapes

We can supply on short notice Faraday tents in standard sizes and shapes. Upon request we can customize in  almost any size and shape. Please feel free to email us the technical drawing of your desired Faraday tent. Sample drawings can be found under the Technical drawing section on this page.

Please note: All measurements given in the tables below are outer dimensions. In a dual-layer tent, approximately 10 cm is lost on the inside of the tent. When you order for example 2 meters wide double layer shielded tent, the inside wide will be 1.90 meters.

Setting up the Faraday tent takes little time and is quite easy.

The standard Faraday tent is supplied with ropes so that the tent can be suspended from the ceiling. Optionally the Faraday tent can be delivered with a convenient mounting frame and/or plastic locks as shown in the picture below. With the plastic locks on a double-layer Faraday tent, it is easy to connect the inner Faraday tent to the outer one.

Rigid floor for a heavy load (metal floor)

Example image of a Faraday tent aka EMI shielded tent with a rigid floor for heavy load


Our Faraday tents can optionally be supplied with a very strong Mu-ferro floor. This floor is much sturdier than the original tent floor. With this floor, it is possible to drive, for example a car in the tent

Rigid floor for a heavy load (metal floor)

Example image of a Faraday tent aka EMI shielded tent with a rigid floor for heavy load


Our Faraday tents can optionally be supplied with a Solid floor for medium load (wood). This floor is much sturdier than the original tent floor.

Shielded ventilation mesh

Example image of Shielded ventilation mesh


Our Faraday tents can optionally be supplied with a shielded ventilation mesh. A double layer of fine conductive wire mesh can be installed allowing you to have fresh air or air conditioning inside the tent

Cable sleeve for entry of filtered cables Ø80 mm

Example image of a cable sleeve


The cable entry sleeve can be used for entering shielded cables or already filtered cables. if you do not use filtered cables or shielded cables they will work as an antenna, and they bring in unwanted frequencies inside the shielded tent .

Visual contact (Mesh window)

Maintain visual contact with your experiment


A double layer of fine conductive wire mesh can be installed allowing you to maintain visual contact between the inside or outside of the tent

How to access the Faraday tent

Faraday tent with standard magnetic closure


Typically the access point is provided with magnetic strips covered with electrically conductive layers of textile. The magnetic closure ensures superb electrical contact when the tent is closed. On request, the entrance can also be equipped with conductive Velcro strips.
