New EMC shield clamps for use on C-rails 12 August 2020

The new EMC shield clamps LFC-MSKL and LFC-SKL from icotek are used for mounting with clamps on C-rails.

The LFC contacts the cable shield directly on the C-rail and the existing cable clamp can still be used. The strain relief takes place via the cable sheath, since the shield connection is not designed for mechanical loads. The large shield contact and strain relief are correctly separated. icotek’s shield clamps type SKL and MSKL can be used wherever the shield of individual cables has to be connected to the ground potential.

The benefits of the new EMC shield claps are the fact they have a tool-free, space-saving assembly, and a high vibration resistance. The LFC also has a large clamping range of 3mm-30mm and offers flexibility. The LFC is suitable for mounting on all common C-rails with an opening dimension of 16mm-17mm. The new shield clamps are now available from the manufacturer.
