XL60 Supercapacitors
Cylindrical cells
Description
Eaton PowerStor supercapacitors are unique,
ultra-high capacitance devices utilizing
electrochemical double layer capacitor (EDLC)
construction combined with new, high
performance materials.This combination of
advanced technologies allows Eaton to offer a
wide variety of capacitor solutions tailored to
specific applications. The XL60 supercapacitor
cells offers high energy and power in a
standardized form factor. Terminal design is
optimized for high reliability and low contact
resistance.
