Ioxus Finalizes iMOD X-Series™ Product Line for Ultracapacitor Application With Advanced Enhancements
Ioxus,
a manufacturer of premium performance ultracapacitor technology for use
in transportation, industrial and energy applications, today announced
the official launch of the iMOD X-Series™, a family of 22 modules that
makes the design and installation at the system level extremely easy for
the end-customer. The architecture of the iMOD X-Series will be the
framework for future Ioxus energy storage technologies across its
ultracapacitor systems.

The X-Series was initially introduced in April 2014 during a soft launch
of the product's Alpha design. The production launch of the iMOD
X-Series simplifies system design and installation for the end-user by
offering customers nearly an infinite array of possible mounting
configurations. This level of flexibility is made possible by the design
of the iMOD X-Series' core technology. Built modularly to maximize
quality and value, the core includes integrated wire management systems
to ensure proper wire location, integrated heat sinks, and unmatched
5,000 VAC hi-pot.
The iMOD X-Series line includes advanced monitoring and communications
choices, making CAN communications available on all X-Series products to
help the end-user accurately monitor vital statics. Advanced features of
the iMOD X-Series include:
-
Configurability: Configurable T-Slot mounting for flexible
voltage configuration to meet virtually all customer requirements,
creating orientation-agnostic mounting with infinite flexibility and
no customer hardware requirements.
-
5000 VAC Hi-pot: Up to 2,000 VDC applicability depending on
specific industry standards.
-
Modularity: Flexibility to serve and optimize applications that
are currently underserved, such as the UPS, power quality and light
ail markets, at competitive price points.
-
Upgradability: All monitoring, balancing and CAN communications
are mounted outside the module, making for easy maintenance and
upgrades. Retrofitting is possible, allowing the customer to decide to
add CAN communications at a later date, or even switch from analog
monitoring to digital monitoring, in the field.
-
Integrated Heat Sink: Dramatic improvements in heating and
cooling dissipation, which improves life and reliability.
-
Durability: Highest shock
and vibration rating in the industry: ISO 16750-3 Table 12 & 14.
-
Environmental protection: IP-67 rated for all modules in the
family as a standard feature.
-
"Off-the-shelf development": Customers can now right-size the
product to their application without having to pay for a new design or
wait for the design cycle. There are 22 different modules available,
using three popular cell ratings that provide ultimate flexibility.
-
Reliability: Using the Ioxus Titan™
Cell, with unsurpassed electro-chemical stability, extreme thermal
management, best balancing, and optional communications, the iMOD
X-Series is built for long term reliability.
-
Future Proof: The iMOD X-Series can be upgraded with the latest
chemistries as they are developed and released by Ioxus, allowing for
higher voltage and increased energy to be used in the existing
X-Series modules.
-
Easy Installation: Front facing terminals for minimized cable
or bus bar length and movement, which reduce or eliminate upkeep and
design time. Removing cables that cross front-to-back in the design
allows for easy and safe maintenance of the system.
"The iMOD X-Series product line is an enormous technological advancement
and truly captures the essence of Ioxus' design and development," said
Chad Hall, co-founder and VP of product management at Ioxus. "We
deployed the X-Series to a number of key customers for trial and
evaluation, and we continued to develop the product family based on the
feedback and results. By creating our modules in a way that meets the
needs for flexibility and configurability of both current and future
customers, we've delivered ultracapacitor modules with superior
performance and rapid, measurable ROI. When you factor in our unmatched
durability, Ioxus has once again outperformed its competitors across the
board."
