50th anniversary of our Pessac manufacturing site

It is with pride that we celebrated on September 17, 2022, the 50th anniversary of the Exxelia Pessac 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.

Felsic HV, long lifetime and high voltage screw terminal aluminum electrolytic capacitor The Felsic HV family of aluminum electrolytic screw terminal capacitors provides great performances in energy density and ultra-long lifetime. For instance, 6 800µF @450V fit into a  volume of Ø77 x 220mm  and can withstand 200,000h between 0 to 70° under 37Amps, which makes them the perfect choice for use in rolling stock traction systems or the CVS. The family also has one of the lowest ESR for aluminum capacitors with less than 10m0hms in most cases. Products are available for voltages from 160 to 450 Vdc, and offer capacitance values from 1500μF up to 47 000μF offering the best compromise between reliability and compacity.     Snapsic HV, high voltage snap aluminum electrolytic capacitor Because it covers voltages from 16 to 500Vdc and temperatures up to +105°C, and because it is customizable, the Snapsic HV series is very versatile and can cover all needs of energy storage in medium voltage both in rolling stock equipment or signaling systems. Thanks to its high ripple current, it is often used in SMPS and HVAC rolling stocks units with a typical variation of 470µF @450V in Ø35 x 50mm, as well as in various signaling control units, where a smaller package can be used with for example 1 000µF @250V in Ø35 x 40mm.   Prorelsic, the long lifetime axial aluminum electrolytic capacitors for signaling equipment Exxelia’s range of aluminum electrolytic solutions would not be complete without the axial leaded Prorelsic series. These capacitors show high ripple current and extra-long life-time with 20 000h @105°C. The most common sizes are Ø8.5 x 19mm, Ø10 x 19mm and Ø12 x 30mm, with typical values of 47µF @40V, 100µF @25V and 47µF @100V respectively. Prorelsic capacitors are perfectly suited for smoothing, coupling/decoupling and energy storage functions in railway signaling equipment.

Exxelia dévoile une nouvelle gamme innovante de condensateurs électrolytiques aluminium

FELSIC HC : la plus haute densité énergétique de condensateur électrolytique aluminium à bornes à vis Et si les ingénieurs pouvaient économiser 30% de volume et de poids, pour une même capacité de stockage d'énergie ? C'est désormais possible grâce à la nouvelle série de condensateurs aluminium électrolytiques à bornes à vis FELSIC HC d'EXXELIA ! Comme le dit Jérôme Tabourel, vice-président du Marketing et des Ventes d'Exxelia: "Grâce à l'utilisation de matériaux améliorés, cette nouvelle famille FELSIC offre la plus haute densité énergétique du marché, tout en ayant une durée de vie ultra longue". Ces excellentes caractéristiques permettent de réduire le nombre de composants utilisés pour la fabrication, permettant ainsi un gain de volume et de poids de 30% et une plus grande fiabilité. Où utiliser la gamme FELSIC HC ?  Ces produits sont le choix idéal pour le stockage d'énergie et les applications d’électronique de puissance.   CARACTÉRISTIQUES: Capacité de 100μF à 3 121 000μF Densité énergétique jusqu'à 21 µF/cm3 pour une conception personnalisée Tension de 10V à 500V Durée de vie de 8000 heures à 85°C Température de fonctionnement -40°C à +85°
