What can a Pentadyne system do for me?

Pentadyne clean energy storage has a lot of great attributes and advantages.

We've found that casinos using our system to protect electronic gaming particularly value these qualities:

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. Cost savings - Pentadyne own-and-operate costs are much lower than that of batteries. Over time, each Pentadyne system deployed saves $150,000 over VRLA batteries.
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.
4. Environmental responsibility/sustainability - Over its design life, each Pentadyne flywheel you deploy will mitigate the mining, smelting, refining, transporting and eventual dumping of more than 15,000 pounds of virgin lead (UPS batteries never used recycled lead) and hundreds of gallons of sulfuric acid. Lead-acid battery emissions also contribute to global warming. Pentadyne systems have no emissions.

Other valuable attributes include:

• Half the footprint of VRLA batteries
• 80% smaller footprint than wet cells
• Virtually silent operation
• 1/10th the energy consumption of other flywheels
• No concrete pad needed or floor loading issues
• Rolls into place and commissions in less than 60 minutes
• No explosive gas emissions or hazardous materials
• No acid vapors, spillage or other safety issues
• Solid, non-"pro-rated" 5-year warranty, standard
• Built in California: seismic zone 4 rated
