Super capacitor

Supercapacitors are no longer an unfamiliar term in the field of energy storage. They are a general term for electric double layer capacitors (EDLCs), electrochemical capacitors, electrochemical supercapacitors and supercapacitors, which can be used as a single energy source or with other energy sources. Used in combination to form a hybrid energy storage system. Supercapacitors have absolute advantages in applications that require instantaneous high-current high-power output, long-life backup power, or a large number of charge-discharge cycles. It can be said that their wide range of applications can be used in cloud computing, consumer electronics, energy, industry, medical and transportation. The energy storage mode provides more options.

Four key characteristics of supercapacitors

Eaton's six supercapacitor categories

Eaton has long established a layout in the field of supercapacitors to provide button-type supercapacitors, cylindrical cells, modules, module systems, large cells and hybrid supercapacitors to empower new energy storage needs in all walks of life. These ultracapacitors utilize an Electric Double Layer Capacitor (EDLC) structure and are made from new high-performance materials, a combination of advanced technologies that enables Eaton to offer a wide variety of capacitor solutions tailored to specific applications – with current values ranging from several From a few microamps for a day to hundreds of amps for a few seconds, these products have extensive global certifications.

A highly reliable and flexible energy storage solution that delivers fast-response, extremely high peak power in a small footprint.

The need for fast charging, downsizing, and a reliable source of energy storage has also grown dramatically in recent years due to the proliferation of IoT and mobile devices. In addition, with the world's emphasis on climate change and the setting of the "Dual Carbon Goals", all walks of life are seeking to increase the use of new energy/clean energy, and a strong, eco-friendly solution is particularly important.

Eaton's line of supercapacitors, with their wide range of models, high power density, long life, and environmental friendliness, are ideal for mission-critical active backup power applications such as data centers, industrial plants, medical facilities, and more.

In addition to backup power sources, they can also be used for intelligent measurements in utilities, household energy and other fields; provide stable and reliable power for applications that require short-pulse power in electronic communications; form a hybrid energy storage system with batteries to meet the needs of electric vehicles in different complex power requirements under conditions.

Our modular products can provide customized solutions for specific application scenarios such as transportation systems, renewable distributed energy integration, microgrids and power system transmission and distribution.
