VYCON Direct Connect (VDC)

VYCON’s VDC-XXE and VDC-XXT flywheel systems store and deliver a reliable source of DC power utilizing the kinetic energy of a high-speed flywheel.  VYCON’s VDC systems provide clean ride through backup power that is predictable and seamless. The VDC units can replace traditional UPS batteries or work in tandem with batteries to provide the most reliable, instantaneous, on-demand power.

When the VDC flywheels are paired with batteries, they are protected against premature aging and unexpected failures.  When the flywheel is used alone, it will provide immediate power to the connected load as it does with batteries. However, if the power loss continues for more than a few minutes, the flywheel will quickly transfer to the facility’s engine-generator.
