EMC shield clamps are used, where the shield of cables must be connected to the earth potential. They are easy to use and effective in earthing 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.
