ELECTRIC DOUBLE LAYER CAPACITORS FROM RUBYCON

The maintenance-free alternative to accumulators and batteries!



RUBYCON now offers high-capacitance double layer capacitors based on a wire-wound design. Their extremely large surface area - over 3000m2 per gram of electrode material used - together with a dielectric of only a few nanometers enables very high capacitance values for such tiny dimensions.


  What makes these RUBYCON capacitors so special?

• Capacitance values ranging up to 100 farads
• High energy density
• Compact dimensions
• Low self-discharge
• Low ESR for high currents

The wire-wound construction enables extremely low ESR values despite the low self-discharge characteristics. As a result, these capacitors are able to deliver low currents over a long period of time while also handling high current peaks of short duration.

The following diagram demonstrates the impressive self-discharge characteristics:

RUBYCON additionally offers customer-specified modules incorporating complex series and parallel circuits!
