The high voltage switch, which has been originally designed for scientific purposes only, became a very professional and highly reliable industrial product. Many manufacturers of the laser- and medical industry asked for a reliable and cost efficient replacement for old thyratrons, cold cathode tubes and spark-gaps. The Behlke switch perfectly fulfills all the requirements. The switches proved their long-term reliability even in the harshest industrial enviroments. Behlke HV switches became an industry standard in hundreds of professional applications. Today Behlke products are often used in safety-relevant medical equipment, as well as in military radar stations, which illustrates the high level of product quality, for which the Behlke team worked so hard for over the past 26 years. Behlke re-invested the profits in the development of new products and in modern manufacturing and laboratory equipment. In order to achieve a maximum part component density per built volume of the high-voltage switching modules, Behlke decided in 2007 to install an own surface mount (SMT) production line. In the meantime the production capacity in Kronberg is almost exhausted and therefore Behlke has started to built up additional capacities in the USA. Behlke Germany is worldwide active and delivers to almost every country. The export share is about 85% of the total business. Several local sales representatives substitute Behlke especially in the Asian market.
