| Q. Why should I be excited
about KranKing™ ? |
| |
| The KranKing™ range of ultracapacitors has been specially designed for high-reliability IC engine-starting applications. It represents a breakthrough technology solution for banishing all your anxieties of battery failure. With ease, the KranKing™ devices can deliver the short-duration, high current discharge (pulse power) needed for successful engine-cranking. This greatly reduces the burden on the batteries and increase both batteries' and motor's life. KranKing™ devices have a cycle-life that is over a 100 times that of conventional IC-engine starting batteries, with the added advantage of a very wide operational range (-45°C to 55°C)!! |

| Q. This sounds FANTASTIC! Why didn't
I come across this much earlier? |

| Breakthrough innovations in technology come about when out-of-the-box ideas are pursued with insights from multiple disciplines. Aided by rapid developments in materials science, electrochemistry and nanotechnology, focused research & development on electric double-layer capacitors (also called 'ultracapacitors' or 'supercapacitors') has been growing over the past two decades. The KranKing™ ultracapacitors, developed and rigorously tested by a highly trained team of scientists and engineers since the early 1990s, specifically addresses the need for greater reliability in engine-cranking by making use of the strengths of this new class of capacitors. Over the past decade their high-performance characteristics have been proven for a variety of engine-starting applications in Eastern Europe and North America. Now, Aartech Solonics Ltd is introducing this path-breaking technology in South Asia. |

| Q. What is special about KranKing™ Ultracapacitors for IC engine starting? |
| |
| The KranKing™ Ultracapacitors are part of the FaraDigm™ range of high-performance, environment-friendly ultracapacitors that are poised to bring about a paradigm-change in electrical energy storage and power-delivery for a variety of applications. The proprietary designs and manufacturing processes employed in the FaraDigm™ devices allows them to achieve very high specific power levels and extremely long cycle-life, with sufficient energy delivery capacity for several pulse power and power quality applications. The KranKing™ ultracapacitors are eminently suited for IC engine starting applications across the full spectrum of weather conditions. They can enable a substantial reduction in the battery-size, greatly enhance the life of the battery and starter motor, and ensure a very high-reliability engine-cranking system. The KranKing™ range also includes several 12V and 24V, high-reliability, portable jump-starting devices that can be used by automobile servicing centres, transport fleet operators, port authorities, ships, off-shore platforms, mining & construction equipment operators, defense services, etc. for IC engine starting when installed batteries fail. |

| Q. Are any special precautions required while connecting
the KranKing™ devices? Do these modules contain
any hazardous material? |
| |
| For most applications, the KranKing™ ultracapacitors can be connected in parallel with a suitable battery, with certain basic guidelines for ensuring low-resistance cabling (less than 0.5 milli ohms), fast-charging of the KranKing™ Ultracapacitors (less than 30 secs), and over-voltage protection. Unlike some other designs, the KranKing™ Ultracapacitors can be completely discharged down to zero volts when not in use. The KranKing™ Ultracapacitors belong to the most environmentally-friendly class of ultra-capacitors, with carbon electrodes and aqueous electrolyte. They are considered non-hazardous for shipping and handling. |
