“We must maintain excellent product and service quality to ensure customer satisfaction.” — Gala Elektrik, About Us
Material families
PET/polyimide film, high-temp and Kapton tapes, glass/silicone glass tapes, heat-shrink and silicone sleeves, mica if needed.
PET for area; polyimide for hotspots; sleeves on ends; tape on edges.
Thickness must follow creepage design.
Design criteria
Voltage, pollution degree, I²t, temperature, IP, flame/smoke. EV adds vibration and automation.
Mounting method affects TCO.
Overlap, hipot and thermal-camera checks help.
Target markets
TR panel shops want stock; Balkans/CIS want schedule; EU/GCC want documents.
Kit film+tape+sleeve from one node.
Frame orders stabilize schedule.
RFQ and mistakes
Mistakes: no kV, PET/polyimide mix-up, missing sleeve ID.
RFQ: size, kV, temperature, method, qty, country.
Quotes get faster.
