Elevating AED performance with Exxelia Ohmcraft resistors & Alcon Power film capacitors

At Exxelia, we understand the critical role that Automated External Defibrillators (AEDs) play in saving lives.

That's why we're proud to introduce our cutting-edge components, Exxelia Ohmcraft Resistors and Exxelia Alcon Power film capacitors, engineered specifically to elevate the performance and reliability of AED devices.

Exxelia ohmcraft DFC - Energy Discharge Application In AED

 

Exxelia Ohmcraft Resistors: Precision Resistors for the World’s Most Advanced Medical Applications.

Designed with precision and reliability at the core, Exxelia Ohmcraft Resistors are the standard in high-performance applications. Their stability, low noise, and high pulse load capability ensure optimal functionality in AEDs, contributing to their life-saving accuracy.

For example, Exxelia Ohmcraft’s high voltage resistors have played a critical role in AED operation for more than 20 years, especially : HVC series, SM series, HVR series, HVD series, and Custom.

- Voltage Ratings to 40 kV (HVD series)

- Resistance Values to 4 TΩ (HVR series)

- Ultra High Stability

- Very Low Noise

- Ratio Tolerances to 0.1% for all series

- TCR to 25 ppm/°C

- TCR Tracking to 5 ppm/°C

- VCR to 1 ppm/V (SM series)

- Custom Configurations

 

Exxelia director“In an emergency medical situation, reliability is critical—automated external defibrillators must always work and never fail. At Exxelia Ohmcraft, all of our resistors go through rigorous testing to ensure complete reliability. In addition, to maintain their portability, AEDs are manufactured to be as small as possible.

Our proprietary Micropen technology enables us to print surface mount resistors that are high in capability, and small in size, making them perfect for applications of this kind.”

said Vice President Exxelia Ohmcraft.

Innovative new products at Electronica 2022 - Booth# A5 - 339

Electronica will take place from November 15th to 18th in Munich, Germany. On our booth #A5 - 339, we will be displaying a bunch of innovative new ranges. EMBEDDED DIVISION - AVIATION / DEFENSE / SPACE   We are proud to show our latest capacitor technology innovation called MML® technology. Miniature Micro-LayerTM Film is a breakthrough in film capacitor technology, with an energy density up to 4 times superior to other film dielectrics. MMLTM innovative technology makes power capacitors smaller, lighter and compatible to higher temperatures. It is perfect for DC link, decoupling, charge-discharge applications. Alongside MML, we will also be exhibiting innovations in magnetics, allowing saving up to 40% weight and 20% volume while dissipating more power. You will also find our new aluminum electrolytic rectangular low profile capacitors named Cubisic SLP and HTLP, our MIL & DSCC tantalum capacitors (newly qualified to reliability level P) as well as our multi-outputs CCM transformers & Dual Active Bridge. But also our components on board the eVTOL.   RAIL & INDUSTRY DIVISION   It is with great joy that we will be exhibiting Alcon capacitors for the first time on our booth. Alcon manufactures film and aluminum electrolytic capacitors that are particularly suitable for locomotives and power electricity charging stations. We will also exhibit film and ceramic capacitors for signaling, and magnetics for rail tracking system, openable current transformer, TFPP transformer and resistors.   MEDICAL DIVISION   Our new Exxelia Micropen branch has an outstanding product offer for medical products that will be showcased at Electronica for the first time ever! Indeed, Exxelia Ohmcraft high voltage resistors are widely used into laboratory equipment such as mass spectrometers or thermocyclers. We will also be showing our Exxelia Micropen unique additive printing technology used extensively for medical disposable material such as endotracheal tubes or surgical ablation tools. You will discover our new range of film components from the Alcon family and our well-known non-magnetic High-Q capacitors for MRI imaging systems, as well as our low profile flyback transformers for implantable devices.
