Stand alone equipment using GSM modules is a challenge for the power source. It must provide both high current pulses and long service life. The PulsesPlus™ technology overcomes the shortcomings of conventional solutions by combining Tadiran Batteries primary batteries with one or more Hybrid Layer Capacitors.
Hybrid Layer Capacitors are a kind of rechargeable battery. They are used as a capacitor in PulsesPlus batteries, where they are connected in parallel to Tadiran Lithium Batteries. The electrodes of HLC’s comprise lithium intercalation compounds. They have low impedance and can deliver high current pulses. The performance and reliability properties of HLC’s have been carefully optimized to match those of Tadiran Lithium Batteries. The result is a battery with a maximum of both energy and power density for stand alone use of up to 25 years.
HLC’s are normally charged to 3.6 V, optionally to 3.9 V.
Excellent shelf life (10 years)
Extremely low self-discharge (1 % or less per year)
Suited for long-term use with low current
For operation at low current levels with long stands
Intermittent discharge with medium current level provided the average is not below the active current
Temperature range from -55 °c to +85 °c
