EEC-S5R5H105D

Electric Double Layer Capacitors (EDLC) and Supercapacitors are more recently developed energy storage technologies that have a few key distinct advantages over other more traditional battery technologies. In terms of the EEC-S5R5H105D, this is a widely used EDLC that is noted for its performance, reliability, and safety. In this article, we will discuss the main application field and working principle of the EEC-S5R5H105D.

Application Field

The EEC-S5R5H105D is primarily used in applications where a reliable but high power energy storage device is required. This could be for a variety of uses, including industrial, audio/visual, electrical, and other digital equipment. It is particularly popular for use in automotive applications, where high energy storage capabilities are needed for start-ups and vehicle control.

It is also widely used in stand-alone or UPS battery systems, where the energy storage capacity needs to be extremely high for an established period of time. EDLCs are suitable for use in both stationary and mobile applications due to their relatively low weight and maintenance-free nature.

Working Principle

The EEC-S5R5H105D belongs to a group of EDLCs that stores energy in electrochemical double layer capacitors. In a double layer capacitor, energy is stored through a process of charge accumulation. This process is reversible and thus the EEC-S5R5H105D can be regarded as a hybrid capacitor-battery device.

During operation, the ions in the electrolyte migrate to the opposite polarities on the electrodes, thus forming two layers of opposite charges. This accumulation of charge forms a strong electric field which stores energy potential. The double layers also suppress electric currents from flowing, thus providing a stable electric field and preserving stored energy.

EDLCs typically have a higher energy storage capacity than traditional aluminum electrolytic capacitors, while also having the advantage of providing substantial power in a shorter period of time. Compared to lead acid batteries, EDLCs boast significantly lower weight and maintenance requirements.

Conclusion

The EEC-S5R5H105D is a double layer capacitor perfect for applications requiring a reliable energy storage device. Its wide application areas, including automotive, stationary, and mobile devices, showcase its versatility and suitability for different types of systems. Its reversible charge accumulation makes it a hybrid of both a battery and a capacitor, providing high energy storage capacity while also supplying short-term high-power handling or low-power handling over a longer period of time.
