Supercapacitors for pulse applications based on printing technology.

Cellergy develops and manufactures supercapacitors (SCs) for pulse applications. In recent years there has been a growing demand for very compact battery operated portable devices that need more power for operation and data transmission. In many electronic devices, which use primary batteries, driving high currents is limited due to the limited power density of batteries. Often, when a battery should supply high power at short time the voltage drop may be too large, causing performance failure, reduced operational life, or even premature battery failures. Adding supercapacitors of low internal resistance (ESR) type in parallel with the source battery can help supply power during these pulses, especially at low temperatures. The patented printing technology developed by Cellergy enables automatic construction of supercapacitors that are manufactured in large wafers that are cut into final dimensions. Automatic manufacturing line was developed and built by Cellergy, reducing human resources needed for this stage of fabrication, and making supercapacitors more affordable for new applications, were the high price of supercapacitors is a limit. The basis of the technology is a printable electrode paste, printed on an electrically conductive film (the current collector) or on the separator alternately. Repeating this process of printing and assembly, creates a multi-layered capacitor, enables tailoring of the product to the required voltage. The innovative printing technology allows the production of highly uniform EDLC’s in varied dimensions and shapes. Cellergy produces the smallest footprint (12x12.5 mm) pulse supercapacitor on today's market, enabling to incorporate the supercapacitors also in space-limited designs. Lastly Cellergy launched two new product series: one having lower leakage current and the other with increased capacitance. Many supercapacitors for pulse applications are usually approved for manual soldering only. Recently wave soldering of Cellergy's supercapacitors was approved.

What is Class I Division 2?

Image
A Class I Division 2 is a location: (1) In which volatile flammable gases, flammable liquid-produced vapors, or combustible liquid-produced vapors are handled, processed, or used, but in which the liquids, vapors, or gases will normally be confined within closed containers or closed systems from which they can escape only in case of accidental rupture or breakdown of such containers or systems or in case of abnormal operation of equipment, or (2) In which ignitable concentrations of flammable gases, flammable liquid-produced vapors, or combustible liquid-produced vapors are normally prevented by positive mechanical ventilation, and which might become hazardous through failure or abnormal operation of the ventilating equipment. Class I Division 2 Classification Class I Division 2 refers to the ANSI/ISA 12.12.01 standard. This standard was previously UL1604 until UL recommended the newer ANSI/ISA standard be used and that all hazardous location products be certified under this standa

FUSE SIZING CONSIDERATIONS FOR HIGHER EFFICIENCY MOTORS

Image
When selecting the proper fuse for short circuit protection in motor starting applications, it is important to not only ensure that the fuse will not nuisance open during motor start up times, but also that the fuse will coordinate as required with overload relays. When sizing fuses between 125% and 150% of the motor nameplate current, several advantages, including ease of coordination with an overload device, a smaller disconnect, and increased short circuit protection from a lower fuse rating, can be achieved. However, if sizing at this level prevents the motor from starting, it may then be necessary to increase the fuse ampere rating and it then becomes important to know the NEC sizing limitations. As of June 1, 2016, the US Department of Energy has mandated that newly manufactured electric motors will need to meet NEMA Premium® efficiency standards. As motor efficiencies increase, motor locked rotor currents can also be expected to increase. In addition to this, with across-the-lin

7/8 16UN Connectors that Provide 600 Volts and 15 Amps

TURCK announces new A-Size 3 and 4-pin 7/8 16UN powerfast™ connectors that provide up to 600 Volts and 15 Amps of power. These IP67 rated connectors provide a modular wiring system designed to handle high current applications for machine power distribution, while providing resistance to vibration commonly associated with conveyors, motors and material handling applications. The cordsets are available with a tray rated, exposed run PVC flexlife ® cable, with or without STOOW rating, and 14 AWG wires that allow you to replace hard wiring with a robust, quick disconnect system that saves the time and money spent installing a conduit system. The A-Size powerfast line offers male and female, straight connectors, standard and custom lengths, and pigtails or extensions. To make the system complete, fully encapsulated mating receptacles, with 1/2”-14 NPT mounting threads are available.
