Application:
WIMA PowerBlock modules stores energy and releases it within short time in e.g.:- Motor start in construction, agricultural and earth moving machines, trucks, busses, vessels, generators
- Railway technology e.g. locomotives, electric tramway etc.
- Hybrid and heavy transportation in e.g. construction, agricultural and forestry machines, city busses, forklifts, cranes etc.
- Automated guided vehicles (AGV) in production facilities, in-plant logistic systems etc.
- Uninterruptible power supply (UPS) in e.g. hospitals, telecommunication systems, oil and gas extraction
- Wind power systems e.g. in pitch control, angle altering of rotor blades, rotation speed control
Advantages:
- Fast supply of several 100 - 1000A in direct current operation
- Operating temperature range from -40°C to +65°C
- Maintenance-free operation with up to 1 million charge/discharge cycles
- Life expectancy >10 years
- Low weight against batteries
- Environmentally friendly materials
- No risk of damage do to complete discharge of the component
- Very fast recharge of the PowerBlock
Conclusion:
The use of PowerBlocks as energy storage increases efficiency and life time of the applications, saves weight and cost for maintenance, and is environmentally friendly.
