Unpacking And Handling - Maxwell 16 V Series User Manual

1. Introduction
The 16 V and 48 V series energy storage modules are self-contained energy storage devices
comprised of either six or eighteen individual ultracapacitor cells, respectively.
include bus bar connections and integrated cell balance voltage management circuitry. Units may
be connected in series to obtain higher operating voltages, parallel to provide additional energy
storage, or a combination of series/parallel arrangements for higher voltages and energy. Voltage
management and alarm circuits function to protect each cell from operating in a damaging
overvoltage condition.
The module packaging (except for BMOD0110 P016) is a heavy-duty aluminum extruded
enclosure. The enclosure is a sealed, water-resistant device (per IEC 529 – IP65). The package
for the BMOD0110 P016 consists of a plastic housing with a metallic cover for thermal transfer.
The voltage management electronics have a single open collector logic output (except for models
with "B02" suffix) which indicates if any cell within the module is experiencing an over voltage
condition. Each module contains one temperature monitor output in the form of an NTC
thermistor.

2. Unpacking and Handling

2.1 Unpacking
Inspect the shipping carton for signs of damage prior to unpacking the module. Damage to the
shipping carton or module should be reported to the carrier immediately. Remove the module from
the shipping carton and retain the shipping materials until the unit has been inspected and is
determined to be operational.
The following items are included with the module:
1 x Product Information Sheet

1 x Certificate of Conformance

1 x Hex head cap, M10x16, Zinc plated screw

1 x Hex head cap, M8x16, Zinc plated screw

NOTE: The original shipping materials are approved for both air and ground shipment.
module should be removed from the shipping carton by lifting it by the module body and not by
the terminal posts.
If the unit is found to be defective or any parts are missing, contact your supplier. A Return
Material Authorization (RMA) number must be issued prior to returning the unit for repair or
replacement.
2.2 Handling
Maxwell ultracapacitor modules are designed to provide years of trouble-free operation. Proper
handling is required to avoid damage to module. In particular, the following handling precautions
should be observed:
 Do not stack modules once they have been removed from the shipping containers.
