Unraveling the FP 20-400-SP

The FP 20-400-SP is a film capacitor that is designed to excel in high-power applications. Here's what sets this capacitor apart:

 

Exxelia Alcon Power film capacitors1. High Power Density: The FP 20-400-SP boasts an extraordinary power density, making it an ideal choice for applications where power is of the essence. Its ability to handle high levels of power without compromising on performance is a testament to Exxelia's commitment to excellence.

  • Very high current (up to 800A)
  • Operating frequency up to 1000 KHz
  • Capacitance : 0.10 µF - 2.5 µF
  • Voltage : 500 VRMS - 1 000 VRMS
  • Frequency : 106 kHz - 637 kHz
  • Max Power : 400 KVAR

 

2. Robust Construction: Exxelia's engineering prowess is evident in the robust construction of the FP 20-400-SP. It is built to withstand the rigors of demanding environments, ensuring reliability in critical applications.

3. Wide Temperature Range: this film capacitor operates flawlessly across a broad temperature range (Up to 85 °C with a copper casing to improve temperature management), making it suitable for various industries, including aerospace, defense and renewable energy, where extreme conditions are the norm.

Thanks to an innovative process, we're able to keep the capacitor very dense while maintaining very good electrical characteristics (such as current), and this without impairing the heating of the part.

 

Applications : In demanding power electronic circuits, this capacitor is a trusted component for smooth operation in Induction heating, electric Cars, medical Imaging, EV Wireless Chargers, resonant Circuits and industrial induction welding.

Exxelia adopts laser marking for its products

Laser marking is part of the GREEN approach that Exxelia has recently implemented for its products. Indeed, it allows the reduction of the presence of chemicals in Exxelia magnetic products, currently, identified by ink marking which requires the use of protective varnish in order to resist the chemical cleaning agents used by our customers. Moreover, it allows a GREEN production with the drastic reduction of consumables (generally chemical) linked to ink marking and thus the need for recycling, for less impact on the environment.         Exxelia is part of an eco-responsible approach with many industrial advantages, namely Indelible marking => optimal traceability (even on the smallest products), permanent and of constant quality. Resistance to corrosion and heat. Resistance to chemical agents => no need to use protective varnish on our markings. No more use of consumables (compared to ink marking).      

50th anniversary of our Pessac manufacturing site

Our manufacturing site in Pessac is one of the 12 industrial sites of Exxelia. It has approximately 130 employees. “We produce essential but inexpensive parts, but we produce 50 million a year! And we have a year of visibility on our order books", "We produce parts in complex alloys here, but also our own recipes for insulating ceramics", assures Mickaël Pelé, Director of the Exxelia Pessac factory. This factory was founded in Pessac half a century ago: it is an integral part of the life of the City and the Region, which have actively participated in its development. Perfectly inserted into the local ecosystem, there are numerous interactions with neighboring institutions, laboratories, universities, schools and businesses. The Pessac factory was built in 1971 and inaugurated in September 1972. Its creation was initiated by Jean-Claude Asscher, President of the Tekelec-Airtronic group. Initially dedicated to distribution, the Tekelec-Airtronic group launched into manufacturing under license to then develop and industrialize its own products. Its development followed that of electronics, telecommunications and IT in France and around the world. The group will reach a significant size: in 1992, with 20 companies employing 3,000 people in different countries, its turnover will exceed one billion dollars. The Pessac plant remained associated with the group until the early 2000s.   Here is a retrospective of the event in video:
