Integration Kits Simplify Ultracapacitor Packaging

The PowerBurst MCI integration kits promise to simplify the packaging and integration of Maxwell Technologies’ MC Power Series Boostcap ultracapacitors. Enlisting Tecate’s patented interlocking end-cap system, modules assemble quickly by way of a snap-together feature in the design. The modular technology allows users to build application-specific modules in various sizes and voltage configurations. Kits come with all necessary hardware and instructions to build two-, four-, or six-cell modules and include PCBs with voltage management circuitry, buss bars, washers, and retaining nuts. They are compatible with the MC Series round, terminal-type ultracapacitors that consists of cells with capacitances ranging from 650F to 3,000F. Prices for the PowerBurst MCI integration kits are $24.50 (two cell), $42.50 (four cell), and $60 (six cell) each/50. TECATE INDUSTRIES, San Diego, CA. (619) 398-9750.
