NEW DC UPS WITH SUPERCAP BUFFERING FOR FAIL-SAFE 24V SYSTEMS

EMERGENCY POWER SUPPLY NOW WITH USB-C AND MODBUS COMMUNICATION.
Bicker Elektronik GmbH, Donauwoerth / Germany, is expanding its portfolio of industrial UPS solutions with the intelligent DC UPS UPSI-2406R2DP2MB – designed and manufactured entirely in Germany. The 24V uninterruptible power supply with maintenancefree Supercaps( EDLC) is ideally suited for reliable bridging of short to medium backup times, protecting connected systems against power failures, voltage dips, and flicker. The compact DC UPS for DIN rail mounting combines a regulated 24VDC backup output voltage at 6A with a completely maintenancefree Supercap energy storage unit and front-panel communication interfaces( USB-C, RS485 / Modbus, relay contact).
Robust design for continuous industrial operation
The UPSI-2406R2DP2MB is rated for an extended operating temperature range of −20 ° C to + 65 ° C. A robust aluminium housing and high immunity to burst and surge events in accordance with
EN 61000-4-4 and EN 61000-4-5 ensure reliable operation in electromagnetically demanding industrial environments. Comprehensive protection functions – including reverse-polarity, short-circuit, and overcurrent protection – contribute to high operational safety and a long service life. The PowerSharing function dynamically distributes available input power between the load supply and the Supercap charger, so that upstream AC / DC power supplies need not be oversized.
Completely maintenance-free Supercap technology( EDLC)
Instead of conventional batteries, the DC UPS UPSI- 2406R2DP2MB is equipped with high-performance electric double-layer capacitors( Supercaps / EDLC) offering an extremely high cycle durability of up to 500,000 charge and discharge cycles. Compared to other energy storage technologies, supercapacitors enable particularly short charge times and guarantee
