Maxwell Technologies, Inc. 160 Volt Module - Application Specific Ultracapacitor Modules

Maxwell Technologies’ 160V module is designed to provide energy storage and power delivery for windturbine pitch control, short-term uninterrupted power supply (UPS) and renewable energy systems. Primarily targeted at pitch control systems for 1.5 to 3MW wind turbines, the 160V module provides a turnkey solution to simplify the installation process and reduce costs for all integration partners. Ultracapacitors have been designed into an increasing share of the electric pitch system portion of the market because of their longer operating lifetime, low maintenance requirements and superior cold weather performance compared with batteries. The 160V module is a cost-effective and easy-to-install energy storage and power delivery solution for wind turbine pitch control systems.
