1. Background: Limitations of Traditional EMI Shielding Materials
In the past, engineers typically used the following traditional EMI protection materials in hydrogen and power electronics equipment:
Metal conduits
Copper foil wraps
Conductive tapes
While these methods may work in static systems, they show significant limitations under high-frequency vibration, high-temperature, and high-current environments such as hydrogen electrolyzers and power control cabinets:
Complex installation: Requires full cable disconnection, affecting production efficiency
Limited flexibility: Difficult to adapt to tight or curved wiring spaces
Poor shielding integrity: Joints prone to electromagnetic leakage
Unstable grounding paths: Ground loops can generate noise
Long-term aging: Metal fatigue and oxidation reduce shielding effectiveness
2. MJ Flexible Braided Shielding Sleeve Innovation
