VISHAY MCB

An expert in ultra-precision position sensors and high-power / high-energy resistors, MCB Industrie provides cutting-edge solutions tailored to the specific requirements of airborne, ground transportation, robotics, and alternative energy applications. Combining unparalleled electrical and mechanical behaviors with extended life spans for the most demanding environments, MCB products have been featured in a wide range of projects for leading OEMs around the world. MCB Industrie offers a flexible manufacturing system (FMS) for small series devices and a line production system for medium and large series devices. By closely linking marketing, engineering, and logistics from the beginning of a project through a quality management system, MCB Industrie has the flexibility to refocus projects in real time.
High-power resistors

Stainless-steel resistors range up to megawatts and the very high-power resistors can be used as breaking resistors or load banks.

Sheathed resistors range from 100W to 100kW. The performance and reliability of the sheathed resistors find an appropriate use in heating and air conditioning systems (HVAC) in rolling materials. MCB Industrie produces air heaters, shaft heaters, water heaters, plinth heaters and absorption groups.

Crowbars / damping resistors are resistive systems for energy conversion.

Filter pre-charge / discharge resistors range from 5W to 1,200W. These very strong resistors can adapt to the most severe regimes and have a joule capacity and a high overload.

Snubber resistors range from 250W to 750W planar resistors (RCEC).
