Founded in 1977, Exxelia Alcon Electronics began by manufacturing aluminum electrolytic capacitors for the Indian consumer electronics market. Over time, the company strategically shifted its focus to power electronics and now offers an extensive range of high CV screw terminal aluminum electrolytic capacitors, as well as a wide variety of film capacitors tailored for demanding industrial and technical applications.

Key product lines include:

• IGBT snubber capacitors with direct mounting and multiple terminal styles to suit various IGBT modules,

• DC-Link film capacitors for energy conversion circuits,

• Power film capacitors for resonant applications such as induction heating, wireless power transfer (IPT & WPT), and medical imaging equipment (MRI, CT scanners, defibrillators).

With its broad and evolving product portfolio, Exxelia Alcon Electronics supports a wide range of industries, including:

• AC drive manufacturers,

• UPS and inverter systems,

• wireless EV charging,

• high-frequency induction heating,

• renewable energy,

• telecom equipment,

• and specialized healthcare and industrial applications such as X-ray, welding systems, and pulse magnetizing equipment.

To meet growing domestic and international demand, the company recently completed a major expansion program, which included increasing its production capacity and building a state-of-the-art R&D laboratory. This facility supports the company’s drive for innovation and modernization and aligns with the Indian government’s “Make in India” initiative.

A major strength of Exxelia Alcon Electronics is its expertise in custom-designed capacitors, which account for approximately 50% of total sales. These products are developed based on a deep understanding of customer applications, emerging technologies, and industry-specific needs. Each stage of design and manufacturing is optimized for performance, reliability, and cost-effectiveness, helping customers choose the right capacitor at the best value.

Currently, 35% of the company’s production is exported to over 20 countries, including the USA, Germany, Japan, China, Italy, and South Korea. Following the latest expansion, Exxelia Alcon Electronics aims to raise exports to 50%. To support this goal, its aluminum electrolytic capacitors now carry the CE mark, and its DC-Link capacitors are UL approved. The company is also certified ISO 9001, ISO 14001, and ISO 45001, demonstrating a strong commitment to quality, environmental protection, and occupational safety in accordance with international standards.

Customer responsiveness is at the core of the company’s commercial strategy. With a technically knowledgeable sales team, Exxelia Alcon Electronics works closely with customers to understand their application requirements, analyze technical challenges, and deliver optimized, cost-effective solutions. The company’s distribution network includes 21 partners in India and 21 others across key international locations, ensuring fast and reliable delivery worldwide.

This customer-centric approach has earned Exxelia Alcon Electronics multiple awards for product quality, service, delivery performance, and technological excellence. Notable companies such as GE Healthcare, Emerson Network, and Fuji Electric have recognized the company for its high standards and reliability.

Exxelia Alcon IGBT snubbers capacitors MP-4, MP-4A, KPF and KPF-9 are designed for high power convertors and use a low loss dielectric of polypropylene film. The capacitors with double metallised plastic film electrodes and with metallised polypropylene as a quasi electrode with an internal series construction are designated MP-4 and MP-4A. These are recommended for low and medium pulse application. Capacitors designed for extremely high pulse applications have aluminium foil as electrodes and have a metallised polypropylene quasi electrode with an internal series construction. These capacitors are designated KPF and KPF-9. The MP-4, MP-4A, KPF and the KPF-9 capacitors have self healing properties. Another type of capacitors are designated KP-3C. These capacitors are unique since they have extended aluminium foil electrodes with polypropylene film dielectric and are impregnated. This design is not only suitable for IGBT protection circuits and snubber networks but can also be effectively used in low and medium frequency tuning / resonant circuits. 

The Exxelia Alcon range of IGBT snubber capacitors are ROHS and REACH compliant. Flame retardant characteristics are ensured by use of plastic enclosure and epoxy end fill which conform to UL94-VO. A total 24 terminal styles and 35 case sizes are available as a standard. In addition custom designed capacitors are also available.
