The increasing technological advancement of industrial enterprises and facilities within the fuel and energy complex (FEC), including the deployment of electronic warfare systems, has led to a significant rise in electromagnetic interference (EMI) levels. This creates potential risks for equipment operation, personnel safety, and structural integrity.

Special materials designed to protect critical equipment have been developed to minimize such harm. They are used for both equipment shielding and personal protection of personnel working in elevated EMI conditions.

One of the most versatile solutions is the Abris EMI material, manufactured as panels, self-adhesive, and heat-weldable coatings.

Abris EMI panels feature a multilayer structure that includes thermoplastic material and a finishing layer, such as glass-magnesium sheet. This provides not only effective electromagnetic radiation shielding but also additional noise reduction, which is important for creating comfortable working conditions.

The material's strength allows the panels to be used in building structures for wall and ceiling cladding in industrial, medical, and residential premises. The attenuation coefficient in the 0.8-6 GHz range reaches 8-10 times (9-10 dB).

For more flexible applications, self-adhesive materials Abris EMIsk and heat-weldable coatings Abris EMItp have been developed. These are ideally suited for protecting equipment, control cabinets, and technical assets.

These materials are easy to install, making them convenient for use in situations requiring the rapid deployment of shielding barriers. The attenuation coefficient in the frequency range of 0.8-6 GHz reaches 8-10 times (9-10 dB).

Protection of building elements such as window and door openings is provided by Abris EMI shielding blinds. They are manufactured from lamellas based on Abris EMIv rubber, coated with fabric featuring water- and dust-repellent treatment.

The blinds effectively block the penetration of electromagnetic waves into interior spaces while maintaining functionality and aesthetics. The attenuation coefficient in the 0.8-6 GHz frequency range reaches 20-25 times (13-14 dB).

Equally important is the protection of personnel working near sources of electromagnetic radiation. Personal protective equipment such as the Abris EMI Protective Under-Helmet and Abris EMI Protective Apron significantly reduce EMI exposure to the human body.

The hood is constructed from shielding fabric with an elastic insert that protects the neck and collar area. The apron, in turn, provides reliable protection for the abdominal and groin regions. These products integrate easily into standard gear, making them convenient for use in both industrial and field conditions. The attenuation coefficient in the 0.8-6 GHz frequency range reaches 20-30 times (12.0-14.7 dB).

For mobile protection of equipment and work zones, flexible mats and portable panels made from Abris EMI materials are available. They are used for temporary shielding in conditions of intense exposure, for example, near powerful sources of radio frequency radiation.

The ease of installation and transportability make them particularly useful when rapid deployment of protective barriers is required. The attenuation coefficient in the 0.3-18 GHz range reaches 42 times (16.3 dB).

The effectiveness of shielding solutions is monitored using modern measuring instruments, such as the PZ-34 electromagnetic field parameter meter with the APZ-34 microwave antenna, which operates in the frequency range of 0.3–18 GHz. Additionally, by using the MERA dosimeter, the conversion level in the 0.8–8 GHz range can be assessed. To counter external threats, for example from unmanned devices, anti-drone guns such as the "Garpia-120", "Romashka 4", and other UAV suppression means were used.

Thus, the use of Abris EMI materials enables effective protection of equipment, structures, and personnel from electromagnetic radiation. The versatility of the products, along with their ease of installation and use, makes these solutions sought-after not only in industry but also in other sectors, including medicine, science, and military technology. Future development prospects include adapting existing materials to meet customer requirements and developing new formats for specialized applications.

To ensure maximum effectiveness of electromagnetic radiation protection, it is crucial to correctly select shielding materials based on the level and characteristics of radiation at the facility. If the enterprise lacks measuring equipment, our specialists are ready to visit the site to perform comprehensive measurements. Using professional equipment, including the PZ-34 electromagnetic field parameter meter and the MERA dosimeter, we assess the electromagnetic radiation range and the specific features of the space requiring protection. Based on the data obtained, recommendations will be provided for selecting materials and solutions that match the operational conditions. This approach ensures the effectiveness of protective measures and the long-term reliability of the proposed solutions.
