SECH focus is on the realization of customer-specific system solutions, including on supercapacitor / ultracapacitor or hybrid-capacitor products. For SECH, it is thus an important issue to develop a product for our customers that fulfils the given requirements in the most comprehensive way. Such an ultracapacitor system can also be equipped, along with the ultracapacitor cells with active balancing and monitoring electronics and a CAN communication interface, also with power electronics, for example including DCDC converters.
Compared to batteries, ultracapacitors offer several unique advantages for backup and UPS applications. On the one hand, the power is available without delay when it is needed, therefore allowing a seamless transition in the millisecond range. On the other hand, they can temporarily deliver up to 50 times more power, are relatively insensitive to low temperatures and can be completely discharged and recharged up to a million times.
