Radio Frequency RF Shielding Services

LBA offers complete architectural RF shielding capabilities, including RF shielding for communications, medical, and other radio frequency interference sensitive facilities. LBA is major provider of architectural shielding solutions for buildings, laboratories and other spaces.

LBA also offers other RF shielding materials, fabrics, and paints as well as an integrated line of shielding components to provide a comprehensive shielding system.

RF shielding systems protect and maximize the functionality of the infrastructure investment of the facility operator. We have over 30 years of RF experience and iNARTE certified engineers!
 

BENEFITS of Architectural RF shielding include: Reduced incidence of Electromagnetic Interference (EMI)- (see our Interference FAQs) induced performance degradation from existing and future radio frequency EMI sources Reduces the RF field levels to which the building facility equipment is exposed by 90 to 99 percent and more! Provides protection against interfering signals, including AM, FM, TV, emergency services, dispatch, pagers, ESMR, cellular, and PCS Improved system operating efficiency Enhanced overall system reliability Reduced system maintenance

KEY CAPABILITIES of LBA: Site evaluations and engineering services RF Shielding system solutions incorporating Flectron and other advanced materials RF Shielding system program management from LBA for: Modular Buildings Site-built installations Installation management services Certification and recertification of RF shielding sites

 

Shielding and RF energy control applications:

Wireless and wired telecommunications installations close to powerful stations like AM, FM or TV broadcast facilities suffer interference from high level RF ingress into receiving, control, and switching equipment. Elusive service quality problems, dropped calls, and test procedure difficulties are often caused by RF ingress.

Medical facilities are often located in areas of high RF density, causing a malfunction risk to sensitive patient and laboratory equipment. Medical facilities are also generators of high-level radio frequency energy from electro-surgical devices, linear accelerators, diathermy equipment, MRI equipment and other devices that may pose a threat not only to collocated equipment, but to associated patient and worker health. Problems have occurred from on-site security guard radios, cell phones, rooftop antennas, and vehicular radios.

Laboratories and research locations incorporate facilities that may be particularly vulnerable to RF ingress. Sensitive experiments may be compromised by transient RF events with significant economic, even life-threatening, consequences.

Industrial sites can be large generators of high level radio frequency energy from sealing, drying, baking, welding, and other operations. This RF environment potentially affects process control and monitoring systems, internal communications systems, and worker health. We also provide RF Safety Training.

Architectural RF Shielding can often be installed to reduce such problems to an acceptable level.  Use our free online RF Ingress assessment tool to check for broadcast station interference threats.  LBA surveys and quantifies your wireless facility RF exposure to determine what shielding your site requires, and then installs a complete shielding solution, protecting your installation. LBA field engineers use the latest technology in architectural shielding materials and proprietary shielding components. LBA is fully qualified to assess and apply other methods of remediation, as appropriate. We provide FCC and OSHA RF compliance services.
