Initiation and Ordnance
Teledyne Reynolds has a specialized area of expertise in high voltage interconnect solutions and high energy devices for initiation and ordnance
(I&O) applications. These highly engineered products have various characteristics tailored to I&O. Depending on the product, characteristics can include controlled impedance and capacitance values, low impedance flat cable compatibility and precise switching times.
Applications come from many markets, including
- Mining
- Sub-sea exploration & production
- Research & development programs
- Geophysical applications
- Military/Defense (such as ordnance disposal and flight termination systems)
Applicable products
| Wire and Cable | High Voltage Mica Capacitors |

High Voltage Connectors |
| High voltage wire and cable with proven reliability in, both, field testing and in production I&O systems using EBW or EFI initiators. | Low inductance/high current designs ideal for exploding foil initiators (EFI) and exploding bridgewire initiators (EBW) used in electronic safe, arm and fire (ESAF) systems. | Both gas filled and vacuum trigger gaps used for energy release in EBW and EFI applications, such as ESAF and ignition safety devices (ISD). | From designs dating back to the 1950's that are still heavily used by the I&O community today to subminiature advanced designs ideal for reduced ESAF package sizes. Low inductance designs also available. |
