The Knowles Advantage
At Knowles, we offer precision multi-turn trimmer capacitors, fixed, variable and core inductors, multi-layer capacitors and hardware for applications requiring non-magnetic high-performance components.
Our expertise in non-magnetic and low magnetic design allows us to support applications ranging from MRI and NMR to base station antenna systems designed with low PIM in mind.
Due to the severe non-magnetism requirements in the magnetic resonance industries, we only use high purity metals that exhibit no measurable magnetism. We do not use commercial brass, and plating materials are carefully selected. Our strict traceability and testing regimes ensure this essential parameter.
Knowles’ high-reliability components for imaging can be found in:
- MRI Systems: Advanced MRI solutions for detailed visualization of soft tissues and neurological structures.
- X-Ray Imaging: High-resolution radiography and computed tomography systems for diagnostic accuracy in clinical settings.
- CT Scanners: Cross-sectional imaging technologies enabling precise detection and monitoring of complex conditions.
Precision Components for Advanced Medical Imaging
Knowles enables precise, interference-free medical imaging with high-performance, non-magnetic components and advanced power solutions.
- Non-Magnetic MLCCs: Eliminate magnetic interference in your MRI system, ensuring clear, accurate imaging and patient safety.
- High Q RF Capacitors: These capacitors have ultra-low equivalent series resistance (ESR) for optimal RF coil tuning and signal integrity in MRI and CT applications.
- Non-Magnetic Ceramic Core Inductors: Designed for applications that demand high-performance, High-Q inductors, our ceramic core inductors provide exceptional thermal and physical stability.
- Non-Magnetic Trimmer Capacitors: Enable precise RF coil adjustment for both traditional and portable MRI systems with our non-magnetic trimmer capacitors.
