The SkelMod 17V 533F ultracapacitor module is the latest addition to Skeleton Technologies’ growing ultracapacitor product family. The module is well-suited for voltage hold applications, and has been specifically developed for wind turbine pitch control and UPS applications.

The strong points of SkelMod 17V are the simplicity of its robust design - the plastic casing in the standard industry form factor enables excellent value for money, and the higher-than-typical voltage provides an advantage in application lifetime compared to the 16V modules on the market. At 4.4kg, it's also lighter than competing products.

“We looked at the popular 16V modules out there and realised the products on the market use materials that add unnecessary cost and complicate production. The SkelMod 17V addresses these issues and provides a cost-effective solution for wind turbine pitch control, as well as voltage hold applications," said Ardo Kõiv, Skeleton Technologies' Head of Module Development.

The versatile SkelMod 17V also has uses in intralogistics shuttles and AGVs (Automated Guided Vehicles) - an industry growing rapidly due to warehouse automation, as well as low voltage UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply) systems. 

Together with our technological advantage in power density and application lifetime, the new SkelMod 17V module is an excellent option for various applications.
