Areca Element HSC-R 48V Rackmount Hybrid Supercapacitor

Areca^™ Hybrid Supercapacitors concentrate standby power within a smaller footprint than existing storage options, assisting operators in reclaiming valuable real estate in both inside facilities and outdoor sites. The eco-friendly solution stores energy electrostatically, rather than strictly electrochemically, and poses no risks of chemical leaks or thermal runaway during normal operation, a chemical event that could cause VRLA or lithium-ion batteries to ignite or be shutdown.

ATX’s Areca Element HSC-R 48V Rackmount Hybrid Supercapacitors are designed for 48V environments and are compatible with existing powering systems, enabling service providers to seamlessly and gradually upgrade their battery-based backup infrastructures. The modules, available in 19-inch, 23-inch and 29-inch varieties, feature a 100% Depth-of-Discharge rating and requires minimal maintenance over a 15 to 20-year lifespan. For extended backup power needs, the Areca Element 29-Inch rackmount module can be configured into a system that meets the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) 72-hour backup power duration requirement.
