As Germany's METALLUX HVR Series (967/968/969) high-voltage resistors face challenges such as long lead times (20+ weeks) and supply chain fluctuations, the HVC HVRGXP Series has emerged as the preferred alternative in the high-voltage industry, thanks to its Pin-to-Pin compatibility, shorter lead times, and superior performance.
A: Yes, it can be directly replaced without any board redesign.
During the R&D phase, HVC strictly matched METALLUX's physical dimensions. Whether it's the 9.6mm (967.10), 26mm (967.26), or 30mm (967.30) length specifications, HVC provides 1:1 corresponding models, with identical pin spacing (Pitch).
A: Yes, the entire series is covered.
A: Yes, consistent and even stronger.
HVC uses standard Tinned Copper Wire, with wire diameters typically 0.6mm or 0.8mm (depending on power rating), fully matching METALLUX's through-hole mounting standards, and offering excellent solderability.
A: Yes, we do.
In addition to straight leads, we offer L-bend leads, Z-bend leads, or cut-to-length leads services. For cylindrical resistors, we also provide Screw Cap or Ferrule options.
A: Higher voltage withstand margin.
HVC uses a 96% high-purity alumina substrate, offering superior insulation strength. For example, the 26mm size model can withstand up to 14kV in air, and even higher in oil, fully covering and exceeding METALLUX's nominal specifications.
A: We use a non-inductive design, resulting in extremely low parasitic inductance.
The HVC HVRGXP Series employs a computer-optimized Non-Inductive Serpentine Pattern. Parasitic inductance is controlled at the microhenry (µH) level, ensuring clean waveforms without oscillation in high-frequency switching power supplies.
A: Improved by approximately 20%-30%.
By optimizing film thickness and substrate thermal capacity, HVC resistors can withstand higher Single Pulse Energy. In X-ray machine arcing or power grid surge tests, HVC's failure threshold is significantly higher than competing products.
A: Extremely low, suitable for precision high-voltage sampling.
HVC optimizes the microscopic topological structure of its ruthenium-based paste, controlling the VCR to < 1-5 ppm/V. This means that from 100V to 10kV, the resistance change is negligible, ensuring the linearity of the voltage division ratio.
A: Better than industry standards.
Standard products have a TCR of ±100 ppm/°C. For precision applications, we offer low-drift versions from ±25 ppm/°C to ±50 ppm/°C, ensuring stable resistance over a wide temperature range.
A: The full range is covered.
We offer ±10% (K), ±5% (J), ±1% (F), and precision grades of ±0.5% (D).
A: 96% high-purity alumina (Al₂O₃).
Compared to the 85%-90% alumina used in some METALLUX products, HVC's 96% substrate has higher thermal conductivity and better mechanical strength, effectively reducing "hot spot" temperatures under high-voltage loads.
A: High-grade Ruthenium Oxide (RuO₂).
Combined with a special glass-phase binder, it undergoes high-temperature sintering at 850°C, forming atomic-level bonding and exhibiting extremely stable chemical properties.
A: High-density epoxy resin.
We use a Vacuum Conformal Coating process to completely eliminate bubbles and pinholes within the coating, preventing surface flashover in high-humidity environments.
A: Absolutely.
HVC's epoxy encapsulation layer has excellent oil resistance. Long-term immersion in transformer oil or cooling oil will not cause dissolution, swelling, or contamination of the oil, making it highly suitable for oil-filled high-voltage power supplies.
A: Yes, it can.
The material has stable chemical properties, will not react with SF6 gas, and its high voltage withstand characteristics are very suitable for GIS equipment.
A: -55°C to +155°C (some models up to +175°C).
Wide temperature design, capable of withstanding extreme cold and high heat.
A: It passes the Double 85 test.
After continuous operation for 1000 hours in an 85°C / 85%RH environment, the resistance drift rate is ≤ ±1%.
A: Standard lead time is 4-6 weeks.
As a direct manufacturer, HVC possesses strong flexible manufacturing capabilities. For urgent orders facing production line stoppage risks, we offer an expedited 2-week delivery channel.
A: No, and there's no high MOQ.
HVC utilizes Laser Trimming technology, so producing non-standard resistance values does not require new tooling. The MOQ is extremely low (typically 50-100 pieces), and the price is essentially on par with standard products.
A: Highly competitive.
Thanks to full-chain manufacturing and the elimination of brand premium, HVC's prices are typically 20%-30% lower than METALLUX for equivalent performance, helping you significantly reduce BOM costs.
