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 directorIn 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.

50 ans du site Exxelia Pessac

Le site de Pessac est l'un des 12 sites industriels d'Exxelia. Il compte environ 130 salariés et est spécialisé dans la production de condensateurs céramique ainsi que des pièces en alliage de matériaux, suivant nos propres recettes de céramiques isolantes.  L'usine a vu le jour à Pessac il y a un demi-siècle : elle fait partie intégrante de la vie de la Cité et de la Région qui ont participé activement à son développement. Parfaitement insérée dans l’écosystème local, les interactions sont nombreuses avec les institutions, laboratoires, universités, écoles ou entreprises voisines. L’usine de Pessac a été construite en 1971 et inaugurée en septembre 1972. Sa création est à l’initiative de Jean-Claude Asscher, Président du groupe Tekelec-Airtronic. Initialement dédié à la distribution, le groupe Tekelec- Airtronic s’est lancé dans la fabrication sous licences pour ensuite développer et industrialiser ses propres produits. Son développement a suivi celui de l’électronique, des télécommunications et de l’informatique en France et dans le monde. Le groupe atteindra une dimension conséquente : en 1992, fort de 20 sociétés employant 3 000 personnes dans différents pays, son chiffre d’affaires dépassera le milliard de dollars. L’usine de Pessac restera associée au groupe jusqu’au début des années 2000.   Voici une rétrospective de l'événement en vidéo :
