Ilika announces an upgrade of the Stereax® P180’s technical specifications. This battery has now been verified to power sensors that are subjected to rapid temperature changes between room temperature and +140°C. This enhanced capability enables the Stereax P180 to operate industrial wireless sensors in even more hostile environment applications to monitor temperature, pressure or other data in industrial equipment, such as deposition systems used in the semi-conductor industry, where rapid cooling or heating of components occurs.Ilika has previously demonstrated the ability of its Stereax P180 solid-state battery to operate at temperatures of up to +150°C for long, continuous periods of time, after controlled ramp rates between room temperature and +150°C. Following further testing, Ilika has now verified that the Stereax P180 can retain its performance, even if it is subjected to practically instantaneous rapid heating or cooling steps as short as a few seconds.
Panel discussion on Solid-State Battery deployment at Ilika’s Capital Markets Day
During Ilika’s recent Capital Markets Day, CEO Graeme Purdy participated in a panel discussion with Julian Hetherington, Director of Automotive Transformation at the Advanced Propulsion Centre, and Thomas Bartlett, Deputy Director at the Faraday Battery Challenge,
