RF Architectural Shielding Products
EMI (Electromagnetic Interference) is often used interchangeably with RFI (Radio Frequency Interference). However, EMI can be any frequency of electromagnetic noise, whereas RFI is a relatively narrow range of electromagnetic noise on the EM spectrum. EMI Shielding can be used to mitigate electric and magnetic radiation across various spaces. Radio Frequency (RF) Shielding can be used to mitigate RFI with specifically designed enclosures that can block RFI. As well, RF Shielding can include application of RF Shielding paints, fabrics, and other materials.

Mica Capacitors
Mica capacitors are widely used in low and medium power RF equipment and are stocked in depth. The styles most frequently encountered in medium wave broadcasting are the 291/G1, 292/G2, 293/G3 and 294/G4. Identical electrically, the "290" types are cast epoxy cylinders, while the "G" types use ceramic bodies and have cast aluminum (brass in some models) endplates with dual mounting holes. "G" types are only available on special order.

RF Safety Monitoring
MVG EME Guard XS 6GHz
The EME Guard XS is an RF measuring device to alert workers near RF emitters for protection of climbers and other RF-exposed workers. It continuously scans for electromagnetic waves and, via its built-in alarm and visual system, alerts users whenever the acceptable pre-selected limits have been exceeded. This RF Safety PPE is extremely easy to use and supports a safer working environment in the areas of installation and maintenance.

Lightning Masts
PLP- 32
PLP- 32 Lightning Masts are recommended for a wide range of lightning protection applications where it is impossible or undesirable to attach conventional lightning terminals. Other models in the series share the same attributes and differ only in height and weight.PLP-32 Lightning Masts provide a cone of protection within which lightning charges are diverted to the mast and grounded instead of to the protected object. Multiple PLP-32 masts may be used to protect extended areas. Protected areas may be determined by use of the widely accepted “rolling sphere” concept. For example, a single PLP-32 mast will protect 9 foot (2.14 m) high portable buildings wholly within a 40 foot (12.19 m) radius. An array of five PLP-32 masts will protect a camp of portable buildings within a 25,000 square foot (2323 m2) area. Consult LBA Technology™ for specific layouts you wish to protect.

RF Inductors
LBA Technology "Blue Line" RF inductors are based on over 30 years of proven international performance. Blue Line inductors are unsurpassed for hi-Q, stability, and low RF losses. These inductors are manufactured from heavy silver plated copper conductors and brass fittings, treated to resist tarnishing. Windings are insulated with melamine or G-1 0 epoxy laminates. These materials are recognized for their exceptional RF qualities, arc resistance, mechanical strength, and low moisture absorption. Supporting frames are engineered to permit maximum access to windings for convenience in adjustment. The metallic frames are separated by insulators to prevent induced current flow.
