Tool-Less Braid Termination System for EMI Backshells
Overview
Benefits of Isodyne’s EMI Backshells
No Tools Required to Assemble or Disassemble
Fewer components make the Isodyne solution much faster and easier to assemble. An inherent advantage of the Isodyne Tool Less Braid Termination system is ease of re-entry for re-pinning or repair.
No Solder Sleeves
The weak link in grounding drain wires to the back shell are eliminated by capturing them with our Conforce (constant force) spring providing direct contact to the back shell for better EMI performance.
Constant force Spring Provides 125ft lbs of Tensile Strength
Isodynes’ constant force spring can be installed and removed 100s of times with no degradation to its holding force. Adding a heat shrink boot almost doubles the holding force and can be ordered as a kit.
Reduced Component Count, Reduced weight
Eliminating components not only reduces FOD and assembly time but also reduces weight. Isodyne offers Composite backshells for further weight reduction when required.
Better EMI Performance
Resistance between the drain wires to the back shells as well as between the over braid and back shell are some of the lowest levels in the industry. Data available upon request.
Isodyne develops and manufactures a patented Tool-Less Braid Termination System for EMI Backshells specifically designed for wire harnesses requiring shielding for EMI/RFI or HERF and lightning protection. Both individual shields and overbraid are terminated at the backshell with one band improving electrical performance also allowing for ease of re-entry. The band can be removed and replaced allowing for easy repair/upgrade of the system without the need for calibrated tools.
