Fail-Save Device (PSCP) INTEGRATED EMERGENCY SUPPLY BASED ON SUPER CAPACITORS
Power Fail-Safe Device (PSCP)
PSCP provides an integrated emergency-power supply based on supercapacitors. This allows the valve to move into a previously defined ‘safety position’. Our energy pack is designed for 500.000 loading cycles, short recharge times and is maintenance free.
PSCP cannot be combined with FSP.
Compared to batteries, supercapacitors offer many advantages:
– maintenance-free operation without the familiar battery “memory effect”
– lifetime of more than 10 years if operated below 55°C, capacity monitoring is therefore unnecessary
– high number of life cycles and load capability due to a low internal resistance, full force is available at all times
– significantly better high and low temperature tolerance
– recharging within a few minutes without losing capacity, the actuator is quickly made ready for a new emergency cycle
