Overview:
The Power-type ultracapacitor product line gives customers in the automotive and transportation sector a
much wider range of choices to meet their energy storage and power delivery requirements.
The cells are specifically engineered for hybrid vehicle drive trains, automotive subsystems and other heavy
duty applications that require the lowest equivalent series resistance (ESR) and highest efficiency avail-
able.
In addition to meeting or exceeding demanding automotive and transportation application requirements for
both watt-hours of energy storage and watts of power delivery per kilogram, all of these products will per-
form reliably for more than one million discharge-recharge cycles.
The proprietary architecture and material science on which BOOSTCAP® products are based enable contin-
ued leadership in controlling costs, flexibility in product offerings and allow application specific performance
tailoring. The cells operate at 2.7 volts, enabling them to store more energy and deliver more power per unit
volume than any other commercially available ultracapacitor products.
*Beginning January 1, 2007, the BCAP2600 will be replaced by the BCAP3000.
We will not be accepting orders after November 15, 2006 for BCAP2600 Cells.
Please contact Maxwell technologies for more information.
