What can a Pentadyne system do for me?

1. Solid reliability - Lead acid batteries are the weakest link in any power continuity system. A Pentadyne flywheel can eliminate batteries and provide much greater reliability. They can also work in parallel with batteries as the first line of defense, taking all the brief hits and bridging the time gap to a smooth generator handoff. This eliminates cycling of the now redundant battery array.
2. Eliminates fire/explosion/acid-spill/hazmat risks - Using a Pentadyne flywheel instead of dozens of UPS lead-acid batteries eliminates the explosive gas emissions of those batteries as well as the fire risk and thousands of pounds of toxic lead and sulfuric acid.
3. Highest availability, lowest maintenance - Steel flywheels incur hours of downtime and tens of thousands of dollars in major maintenance costs every 2-3 years. But the Pentadyne system's only moderate maintenance (capacitor replacement, just like that for your UPS) is just for one hour once every six years.
