Envirotect RF Cages (Faraday Cage)

Product Description

For an MRI scanner to function properly it needs to sit in an electrically sealed six sided RF cage (Faraday Cage) consisting of floor, ceiling, walls, control window and entrance door.

Envirotect construct our RF Cage using pure electrically deposited copper fixed to a modular timber frame to ensure stability and will be designed, manufactured and installed under strict quality control measures.

All of our cages are manufactured to suit the individual site requirement.  Framework for the cage is manufactured in panels at our UK premises and then transported to site where they are installed by trained personnel.

Acoustic insulation is installed into the cavity of the RF copper wall panels with a further layer on top of the RF ceiling panels.

Electrical cables, medical gas pipes and other supplies are routed out of sight in the wall cavities.  Electrical filters and waveguides are used to shield the RF Cage from unwanted signals.

Envirotect’s RF doors are designed to provide reliable, low maintenance service for use in the most demanding MRI facilities.  Our door meets the required RF attenuation specification and is finished in a high-pressure laminate finish.  

Our RF control window is made from an aluminium frame and contains a thin layer of blackened copper mesh with a double layer of safety glass providing clear visibility.

Envirotect can offer RF Attenuation Testing, EMI (Electromagnetic Interference) Testing and Vibration Surveys as well as enviro-Steel® Magnetic Shielding and door servicing.
