Alcon has been manufacturing a series of high CV Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitors; since 1977. These are useful for various applications in industrial, telecom and strategic electronics. Some years ago, a new series of film capacitors was added to our manufacturing range. Alcon’s wide range of standard capacitors, for applications in power electronic circuitry, is unmatched in India.

Today Alcon is a reputable Company in the electronic components industry in India. Alcon has been able to meet the quality criteria of users by applying the latest technology and exacting quality management and assurance procedures. Alcon believes that quality has to be built into the entire manufacturing process. The finest end product is assured by the finest inputs, proven technology, modern production processes and stringent quality control. All critical raw materials and bought-out components are sourced from well-known Indian suppliers and manufacturers in Europe, USA, Japan and Korea. Alcon is registered to ISO 9001 by Underwriters Laboratories Inc.

Custom-designed capacitors account 50% of Alcon’s sales.

Designing capacitors for special applications requires an in-depth understanding of the application, knowledge of changing technologies, the ability to develop innovative technology concepts and finally, incorporate these concepts into capacitors, so that users are assured of high reliability and high performance products. This is where Alcon scores over other capacitor companies in India. Alcon’s Custom Designs Capability is unmatched. One of Alcon’s significant plus points is that every stage of product development and innovation is evaluated in terms of changing technologies and user needs. In aluminum electrolytic capacitors we introduced the use of cold welded contacts, multiple tabbing, crimped can construction, low resistance electrolytes, low-density papers and high safety margin on the rated dielectric forming voltage. In polypropylene film-foil capacitors, impregnated elements eliminate corona from within the winding. This gives the capacitors a high AC voltage rating for a given DC voltage rating. These new technology concepts developed in-house, help produce better capacitors for sophisticated and specialist applications.

Our technical competence accounts for our blue chip customer base. Our customer list of more than 150 equipment manufacturers includes prestigious names like Siemens Ltd., ABB Ltd., Otis Elevators, Bharat Electronics Ltd., Indian Telephone Industries Ltd., and most of the major UPS manufacturers in India.

At Alcon, responsiveness to customers needs is an integral part of our marketing strategy. We work together with customers to understand their production operations and application needs, analyse problems and offer optimum solutions. We do what it takes to satisfy customer requirements. Alcon has a marketing team with component specific knowledge and experience. Our branch office in Delhi and representatives in Chennai, Mumbai and Bhopal function as marketing nerve centres. In addition a large number of reputed stockiest and distributors in India and abroad service customer requirements.
