Our Production Series

The railway industry is a special focus of our production. Our DC/DC converters can be used reliably especially for trains, and withstand even the toughest conditions in terms of shocks and vibrations in accordance with EN 61373 and temperature fluctuations from -40°C to +100°C.

Railway industry

We are particularly proud of our thick-film technology on a ceramic substrate, which, in conjunction with the most modern circuits with galvanically isolated converters, achieve efficiencies of up to 94%. Due to the combination with a metallic housing, there is no need for additional cooling. We integrate thermal shutdowns and short-circuit protection as standard, and power failure bridging of 10ms can be integrated on request.

We always manufacture according to customer order – specifically and according to requirements. We would be happy to make you an offer based on your individual requirements.

Examples

Elektra offers a large variety of DC/DC converters in the power range from 5 to 500 watts for industrial telecommunication, automation technology and railway applications according to EN50155.

How Everything Started

Today’s modern electronics date back to two important events: the invention of the Hertzian dipole (used to propagate electromagnetic waves in space) by Heinrich Hertz in Germany in 1886 and the commercial use by Guglielmo Marconi after the invention of the radio in Italy in 1895. The whole world could now listen to the radio: the industrial rise was rapid.

Radio receivers and transmitters were built in large numbers, with so-called vacuum tubes in all versions. The first digital computers (the forerunners of today’s computers) also had vacuum tubes as circuit elements and were as big as a small house.
