The pe0040 Peltier cooling system has been specifically developed for a lower cooling output between 200 W and 600 W with a very high temperature accuracy. The production of cold based on Peltier elements is realised with the aid of plate-shaped semiconductors. When voltage is applied to the Peltier elements, one side of the plate becomes cold and the other one hot. In general, the heat is dissipated into the atmosphere and the cold is transferred to the water via a heat exchanger.
As the unit does not rely on any moving parts for producing cold - unlike compressors - there are no vibrations or sound emissions, which is a crucial advantage, in particular for highly sensitive medical applications. In addition, the semiconductor plates have fast response characteristics and they immediately adapt the cooling output when the applied voltage changes.
As a plug-in cooler, the pe004 can be easily integrated into a wide range of existing of systems.
