EATON's New Supercapacitors PHVL Series
Supercaps With Low Self-Discharge
The new EDLCs of PHVL series from EATON are ideal for a long life, reliable energy storage. These two-cell supercapacitor packs with low self-discharge and low leakage current can be used to extend battery life, provide pulse power or backup power for longer periods.
EATON’s PHVL offers 3.9V operating voltage with ultra-low self-discharge and leakage current and ultra-low ESR for high power density with eco-friendly materials for a green power solution. At room temperature, PHVL has an 80 to 90% lower leakage current than standard PHV series resulting in longer battery life when connected in parallel with a primary battery and longer backup duration for devices such as real time clocks. 5V surge voltage can extend the battery life additionally.

Applications for EATON’s PHVL supercapacitor packs include water and gas meters, battery assist for peak power, IoT sensors, long-duration discharges, RTC and memory backup. These products have the same size, capacitance and configurations as EATON’s PHV series.
For systems operating on a primary battery, like smart meters, PHVL can extend the battery life by 10-20% over solutions with PHV series. Likewise, to provide backup for low power devices like real-time clocks, PHVL can provide up to 20% longer backup times than battery-only solutions. In emergency power applications that could be disconnected from a charging source, PHVL can also extend the backup time.
