3066 - Thermoelectric Cooler Module

• Freeze or boil water
• Cool or heat equipment
• Generate power from heat

Thermoelectric coolers (TEC) or Peltier effect heat pumps can be used where controlled heating or cooling is needed in very small spaces. There is no refrigerant, fumes, mechanical vibration or noise.

This 40 x 40 x 4.7 mm-modules contain 127 p-n junctions connected electrically in series but thermally in parallel. When powered up they will cool on one side and heat up on the other.

Application Ideas

• Cooling instruments - IR detectors, lasers, photo-multiplier tubes, night vision equipment, cameras, etc.
• Heating of equipment in cold weather conditions; heating water in vending machines
• Portable coolers of all descriptions (medical, recreational); Dehumidifiers
• Precision scientific equipment such as thermal conductivity & melting point measurement
