Enhancing Power Quality Through Innovation to protect your business

Vycon flywheel energy storage systems store kinetic energy in the rotor of a motor/generator by constantly spinning it. When short-term back-up power is required (i.e. when utility power fluctuates or is lost), the rotor's inertia allows it to continue spinning and the resulting kinetic energy is converted back to electricity. When connected to the DC bus of a static UPS, the flywheel allows to provide ride-through power to critical loads during electrical disturbances like sags, brownouts, momentary interruptions and short power outages.
Combined with a generator, this DC flywheel offers the ultimate battery-free UPS/power solution for longer outages.

1.- Vycon DC flywheel:

The Vycon DC flywheel offers the optimum battery-free protection against mains disturbances and power quality problems that affect processing plants and commercial facilities.
The unit is designed for high power, short discharge applications. Vycon's patented high-speed motor/generator and contact-free magnetic bearings offers unlimited cycles, clean power output, low maintenance and 20 years of reliable operation: on demand power for generator set ride-through, battery replacement, battery hardening, and glitch protection
