Vishay Intertechnology Launches New Ruggedized ENYCAP Energy Storage Capacitors

Vishay Intertechnology has recently launched a new series of ruggedized ENYCAP electrical double-layer energy storage capacitors for energy harvesting and power backup applications in harsh, high humidity environments.

Vishay BCcomponents 225 EDLC-R ENYCAP capacitors are the industry’s first to offer a useful life of 2000 hours at +85 °C and meet the highest class of moisture resistance: the biased 85 / 85 1000-hour test.

The long useful life of the devices from Vishay Intertechnology is double that of standard electrical double-layer capacitors, enabling maintenance-free operation and greater design flexibility.

The Key Applications of the EDLC-R ENYCAP capacitors includes:

• Their high humidity resistivity allows for use in a wide range of industrial,
• Renewable energy, and
• Automotive applications, including smart meters, handheld electronics, robotics, solar panels, E-latch door systems, and emergency lighting.

Available in eight small case sizes ranging from 16 mm by 20 mm to 18 mm by 40 mm, Vishay Intertechnology’s’ 225 EDLC-R ENYCAP capacitors offer high power density to 4.1 Wh/kg, capacitance values from 20 F to 60 F, and a maximum rated voltage of 2.7 V. The RoHS-compliant devices feature rapid charge and discharge performance and are available in through-hole versions.

Samples and production quantities of the 225 EDLC-R ENYCAP capacitors are available now, with lead times of six weeks for larger quantities.
