Abstract:
In combination;a conductive housing having an associated cover and an electrically conductive seal which is directly applied onto a sealing surface of said housing or said cover while freshly-extruded and in a condition which is still plastic and not yet hardened for sealing a gap of the conductive housing which accommodates electromagnetic modules for electromagnetic shielding and for prevention of material transfer past the sealing gap,wherein the electrically conductive seal is made by means of co-extrusion constructed from at least one internally-positioned elastic sealant strand which is free of conductive components and is still plastic and not yet hardened, and at least one ring-shaped external electrically conductive strand, which is still plastic and not yet hardened, and which encompasses the at least one internally-positioned elastic sealant strand, has low inherent elasticity and wall thickness, and is made of a non-conductive material mixed with electrically conductive components.
