Capabilities:

The ELTEK Labs facility consists of four linked laboratories which work independently yet share a common goal to provide accurate data to our clients. Our four labs are: (A) Material Properties Lab, (B) Long Term Thermal Aging / Relative Thermal Index – Thermal Index Lab, (C) Component (Chemical) Compatibility Lab and (D) Electrical Insulation Systems Lab [EIS]. All test programs are run according to either nationally or internationally recognized standards, many of which we have had a part in developing.

Eltek International University (EIU):

It is our focus on providing education to our international customer base that sets us apart. Also, our commitment to increase the industry knowledge base is evident with the development of ELTEK International University. Through this avenue, we help educate our customers as to the complexities of the electro-technical industry. EIU is an internet based learning environment. Participants of the EIU online study program learn theory as well as the practical aspects of EIM, EIS, CCT and so much more. EIU offers invaluable information that will provide you the knowledge needed to bring products to test – and in turn – to market more quickly and cost effectively. EIU was designed for you.
