Information about NEXTYS NCP12
The NEXTYS NCP12 super capacitor module offers an advanced, maintenance-free alternative to traditional 12 V lead-acid batteries for short-term backup power applications. Engineered with state-of-the-art Electric Double Layer Capacitor (EDLC) technology, this compact DIN-rail unit provides an energy storage capacity of 7.6 kJ (2.1 Wh) while supporting a steady 20 A discharge current and peak discharge capabilities of up to 30 A for 5 seconds. A primary advantage of this unit is its exceptional endurance, achieving over 500,000 charge/discharge cycles and an expected operational lifespan of 10 years, completely eliminating routine battery replacement costs and service downtime.
Designed for harsh environments, the NCP12 delivers full functionality across a wide operating temperature range from −40 °C to +85 °C, thriving in extreme conditions where conventional batteries degrade quickly. Its rugged aluminum enclosure utilizes fanless natural convection for efficient thermal dissipation while maintaining high resistance to shock and vibration. Furthermore, comprehensive safety features—including reverse polarity protection, a user-replaceable 30 A blade fuse for short-circuit events, and versatile series/parallel connection capability—make it an extraordinarily resilient power backup solution for industrial automation, control panels, and critical infrastructure.
