Series 8000 Honeycomb Vents
The 8000 Series Vents are manufactured in both custom and standard configurations. EMI shielding performance is achieved from 1/8 cell aluminum honeycomb panels mounted in high strength extruded aluminum frames available in 13 styles as shown. Frame to enclosure shielding options include Twinseal, Mesh gaskets, Beryllium copper shielding strips or Metalized Fabric Gaskets.
Honeycomb Thicknesses
Honeycomb is available in 1/8", 1/4", 1/2", and 1" thickness. Other thicknesses are available on special order.
Free Prototype Request Form
To help engineers cope with last minute design considerations, Tech-Etch will prepare for qualified programs "to spec" prototypes to both shorten lead times and smooth the engineering process before full production runs. To request prototype, click here.
EMI shielding effectiveness and environmental protection can be improved by plating with tin or nickel. The highest level of shielding is achieved with a cross cell configuration where two 1/4 thick honeycomb panels are assembled with the foil seams oriented 90 degrees from each other.
Standard vents are available in Style 1 frames with 8-32 threaded blind fasteners for mounting. See chart below for sizes. For custom requirements, frame style, frame to enclosure shielding, finish and dimensional specifications are required. See Figure 1. How to Order is explained at the bottom of page.
