GENERAL DESCRIPTION

SHORT-FORM DATA

The DIMENSION UC-Series are buffer modules utilizing
Electrochemical Double Layer Capacitors (EDLC),
commonly known as Ultracapacitors or Supercapacitors,
which are installed inside the buffer module. They can
bridge power failures or voltage fluctuations and supply
voltage to the DC 24V bus for a certain period, which
allows for a safe shut-down of the system. Expensive
downtimes, long restart cycles and loss of data can be
avoided.

In times when the power supply provides sufficient
voltages, the buffer module stores energy in the
capacitors. In case of a mains voltage fault, this energy
is released to the DC bus in a regulated process.
The buffer modules are maintenance-free and have a
similar lifetime expectancy as power supplies. No
regular replacement of the capacitors is necessary as is
required for battery based UPS systems. The wide
temperature range from -40°C to +60°C makes the unit
suitable for many applications.
The buffer modules come in two versions which differ in
the size of the installed capacitors.
