SCS Metal-In shielding bag with zip closure, 455 x 455 mm

Electronic assemblies usually leave the EPA inside a bag. This 455 x 455 mm shielding bag forms a closed Faraday cage: the aluminium layer in the PET/ALU/PE laminate guides electrostatic fields around the contents. The square 455 x 455 mm cut suits flat, wide parts such as large PCBs or plug-in modules.

Benefits

• Shielding to standard: built to EN 61340-5-1 and ANSI/ESD S11.31, with the metal layer embedded inside the laminate where it is protected from abrasion.
• Resealable: the zip closure allows incoming inspection and removal of parts without a heat sealer, and the bag stays usable afterwards.
• Contents stay visible: the transparent film shows labels and part markings, so the bag need not be opened outside the EPA.
• Dissipative surface: 10E4 to 10E9 ohm inside and outside, so charges drain in a controlled way rather than as a sudden discharge.

Applications

Suitable for large-area PCBs, plug-in modules and flat device assemblies that are stored, moved between production steps or shipped. The bag is also available in other formats.
