Ignition Safety Devices
Excelitas Technologies specializes in the design, manufacture, and testing of MIL-STD-1901A compliant rocket motor Ignition Safety Devices (ISD) for safe initiation of both launch and flight motor initiators. Our ISD designs are compatible with through bulkhead initiators that work in-line with the detonator to provide highly reliable transfer of pyrotechnic energy, while isolating the ISD from the rocket motor heat and combustion effects. Our ISDs are designed for either single- or multiple-pulse initiation applications.

Omniblock Integrated X-Ray Systems
Omniblock® X-ray generators from Excelitas Technologies integrate the high-voltage source and X-ray tube into one consolidated housing. This design configuration eliminates the high-voltage cables and connectors reducing cost while improving system design flexibility and streamlining integration. They are specifically designed for generating X-rays in static or rotating applications using proven designs of up to 180 kV and 2.4 kW. Typical applications for Omniblock X-ray generators include baggage screening, medical imaging, food inspection, industrial analysis and many other cost-sensitive and space-constrained X-ray applications.

High-Voltage DC Power Supplies
Higher-voltage and Higher-power Supplies require more complex design solutions. The heat to be dissipated and installation infrastructure, plus choice of insulation system in a HVPS are driven by the output voltage and output power which ultimately dictates packaging. Typical insulation systems are based on air, dielectric oil, epoxy, RTV Silicone and even Sulfur Hexafluoride (SF6). The method of cooling is a factor as well, the choices often coming down to air, water or oil, depending on the platform design requirements. These applications require Excelitas' detailed understanding to help choose the best design solution.
