Bicker Elektronik’s Modular DC UPS System Uses Maintenance-free Supercaps as Energy Storage

March 07, 2021 by Hailey Stewart

With the UPSI system, Bicker Elektronik offers a modular and integrated solution with safe and durable battery technologies and designs.

The new modular DC UPS system UPSI for 12VDC and 24VDC is available as energy storage (BP-SUC) with maintenance-free supercaps (ultra- or supercapacitors) and reliably and reliably protects DC consumers from voltage fluctuations, flickers, break-ins or power failures.

Unlike conventional batteries, supercaps are charged very quickly, operate in the extended temperature range and convince with high current load capacity, power density and reliability. Due to the high cycle resistance (>500,000 charging and discharging cycles), energy storage systems with supercaps have a particularly long service life. For the supplied application, this means an increase in long-term availability while at the same time Minimize maintenance effort.
