TEC1-12715 Thermoelectric Cooler

• A thermoelectric cooling (TEC) module is a semiconductor-based electronic component that functions as a small heat pump.
• By applying DC power source to a TEC, heat will be transferred from one side of the module to the other.
• It creates a cold and hot side.
• They are widely used in industrial areas, for example, computer CPU, CCDs, portable refrigerators, medical instruments, and so on.
• Please radiating the heating side, avoid using under no-radiating condition over 2sCoated with thermal grease when install the device.
• TEC will typically produce a maximum temperature difference of 30-40 C between its hot and cold sides.
• The more heat moved using a TEC, the less efficient it becomes, because the TEC needs to dissipate both the heat being moved, as well as the heat it generates itself from its own power consumption.
• The amount of heat that can be absorbed is proportional to the current and time.
• W = Plt (where P is the Peltier Coefficient, I is the current, and t is the time).
• The Peltier Coefficient is dependent on temperature and the materials the TEC is made of.
