Mission and Vision SBE’s Mission, Vision and Core Operating Values......As an innovator of film capacitor technology, we enable our customers to optimize their own products with the capacitor solution specific to their needs. Mission and Vision SBE’s Mission, Vision and Core Operating Values center around our critical success factors: Technical superiority, Comprehensive application support, High volume experience, Short lead-times and dependability. SBE takes great pride in providing friendly customer service by people who answers your questions in a comprehensive and timely manner. SBE, providing you with the ultimate in Performance, from Design to Delivery. Who Are We SBE Inc., dba SB Electronics, designs and manufactures the most reliable Film Capacitor Products for today’s demanding applications. We have developed unique technology (patent pending) in pulse design and continue to introduce new technologies to support the Homeland Security, Electric Utility, Energy Efficient Lighting, Medical and Automotive/e-drive markets. Formerly a Sprague Electric company, the company has evolved from a supplier of high volume standard products to additionally providing application specific capacitor solutions. SBE will push the envelope of available technology and we are working constantly to create new technology as well. While new technology is entering, we have not reduced our support of traditional products. We manufacture the well known Orange Drop® and 192P Pacer® Film Capacitor lines, both of which have reliably served the industry since 1959! SBE continues to focus on expanding our product offerings. ALL of our products are supported by the comprehensive service you have grown accustomed to. Why Choose SBE Our focus is on Film capacitor products. SBE has the experience, technical expertise and supporting staff to design and deliver the film capacitor you need, when you need it. High voltage, tight tolerance, demanding peak currents, high frequency whatever your application, SBE can help you specify the right part. Our products are designed for life and reliably manufactured to provide the best electrical performance for your application. Located in the pristine Green Mountains of Vermont, SBE benefits from a traditional “Vermont work ethic”, which is comprised of hard work, pride in craftsmanship, dedication and attention to detail.
