Maxwell Technologies’ 160V module is designed to provide energy storage and power delivery for wind turbine pitch control, short-term uninterrupted power supply (UPS) and renewable energy systems. Primarily designed for pitch control systems for 1.5 to 6MW 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 ever-expanding share of the electric pitch system portion of the market due to their longer operating lifetime, low maintenance requirements and superior cold weather performance when compared to batteries. The 160V module is a cost-effective and easy-to-install energy storage and power delivery solution for wind turbine pitch control systems.
Maxwell’s next-generation 160-volt module (C02 model) features an extended DC life.* The module is optimized for wind turbine emergency pitch control applications and is also available for small UPS systems, heavy duty machinery and industrial applications.
