About Our Team
The Hi-Rel Special Use Capacitors Department designs and develops custom capacitors for NW and other National Security applications. The department covers the complete product realization cycle including requirements, design, development, specification, qualification, procurement, delivery, and stockpile support. We work closely with our partners at the Kansas City National Security Campus (KCNSC), the Sandia External Production program (SEP), and our suppliers to realize product. We support our customers by providing innovative designs, production techniques, and hardware for new programs while continuing the development, production, and surveillance of current and legacy components.
The Hi-Rel Custom Magnetics Department is responsible for the design, development, qualification, delivery, and surveillance of high reliability custom magnetics products (transformers or various types, inductors, solenoid coils, etc.) for NW and other National Security customers. Our teams model, characterize and optimize designs and hardware. We partner closely with customers, many internal departments with specialized capabilities (materials, environmental testing, mechanical design, quality, etc.), the Production Agency (KCNSC), and maintain extremely close relationships with external suppliers. Defect-prevention strategies are engrained in our work and design margins are quantified. There are multiple challenging requirements related to meeting high reliability numbers over extremely long life, radiation tolerance, nuclear safety requirements, and size and weight restrictions. Our labs are well equipped and have the capabilities to do specialized testing. The department has dozens of products in all phases including earlier research and development, prototyping, and steady state production. We are advancing innovative new technologies and designs for next generation product insertion opportunities.
