The supercapacitor series can be used in conjunction with batteries or as replacements for batteries to offload constant charge/discharge cycles, extending life, increasing reliability and lowering replacement costs. With a capacitance of 3,000 F, it targets high power, high energy applications such as hybrid buses, traction, construction, mining and material handling. It has a maximum operating voltage of 2.7 V, offer 3.0 W-hours of total stored energy, has an extended operation temperature range from –40° to 85°C, and has a low equivalent series resistance of 0.23 mΩ.
