ESIGN
EATURES
The following features are the results of the unique patented manufacturing process that enables the
DEI Hybrid Capacitor to deliver many charge and discharge cycles with greater energy and power
per unit weight and volume.
High Energy
The amazingly high specific capacitance and lower weight of ORION's Hybrid Capacitor yields an energy
per kilogram figure that is twice that of any other commercially available Electric Double Layer Capacitor
(EDLC).
More Power
Both the 'per weight' and 'per volume' power density of ORION's Hybrid Capacitor exceeds that of
other hybrid capacitors in production today.The extremely low internal resistance (ESR) characteristic of
ORION's Hybrid Capacitor enables them to supply large amounts of instantaneous peak power, when
demanded by the load.
Long Life
ORION's Hybrid Capacitor has a very long life span as well.They have been subjected to more than
500,000 charge and discharge cycles and only show a small typical loss of capacitance (less than 20%) and
an even smaller than typical increase in ESR (less than 2X).The long life span of the ORION's Hybrid
Capacitor means that it may never need to be replaced.
Excellent Low Temperature Performance
ORION's Hybrid Capacitors show very little loss of effective capacitance or ESR, even at temperatures as
low as -°40F (-°40C).
SAFETY FEATURES
LED Display
The display at the top of the ORION Hybrid Capacitor will show the current voltage at the capacitor.
Warning Buzzer
The warning buzzer will sound if the ORION Hybrid Capacitor has been wired to a reverse polarity.
Safety Vent
The safety vent ruptures when the internal pressure of capacitor cell has reached 5 ~ 10 kg/cm2.
CAUTION: To prevent injury due to hazardous chemicals, do not touch the capacitor
ATTENTION: Safety vent ruptures caused by improper wiring is not covered under
