The EMC Shield Clamp PFKZ-B|SKL 3-6 (part number 36783.2) from icotek Corp is designed for connecting cable shields to ground potential in applications where screw connections are not feasible. This clamp features a pluggable design that allows for easy installation on metal sheet edges, providing a secure grip even under vibration conditions. It accommodates cable shields with a diameter ranging from 3 mm to 6 mm and is suitable for wall thicknesses between 2 mm and 3 mm. The clamp includes integrated strain relief, ensuring compliance with EN 62444 standards, and is constructed from zinc-plated spring steel, making it resistant to shock and vibration. The product is maintenance-free and designed for high-density applications, allowing for quick assembly without the need for tools.
EMC shield clamps are used, where the shield of cables must be connected to the ground potential. They are easy to use and effective in grounding single cable shields.
When using types with integrated strain relief cables can be fixed via the cable jacket using cable ties. Thus strain relief in accordance with EN 62444 is achieved.
Due to its special design the clamping ranges of the MSKL are very large while the dimensions are comparatively small. (Example: MSKL 3-12, assembled with a 12 mm cable shield: width 26.25 mm).
These shield clamps are used where a screw connection is either not possible or wanted. The shield is simply plugged on the metal sheet edge. The claws provide a secure grip, even in case of vibrations.
