Two stage thermoelectric modules
The required Peltier module types are selected from the General Specification or from the tables given below, based on the marking Х ТМ-ААА-ВВ-ССМ, where:
- Х — number of stages in a thermoelectric module
- TM — thermoelectric module
- AAA — number of thermocouples in the module’s first stage
- BB — number of thermocouples in the module’s second stage
- CC — current at maximum temperature difference ΔTmax, А
- М — modules manufactured using the patented glue layers technology
Two stage module design example:
Imax — current consumption at maximum temperature difference (ΔTmax), A
Umax — voltage supplied at maximum temperature difference (ΔTmax), V
Qcmax — maximum cooling capacity at Imax and ΔT = 0 °C, W
ΔTmax — maximum temperature difference at Imaх and Qc = 0, °C
At the customer’s request, modules may be manufactured with the additional options mentioned above.
Two — stage thermoelectric modules are basically customized modules. Please contact Ferrotec Nord for all issues concerning the design .and manufacture of such modules.
Basic applications of two- and multistage thermoelectric modules are:
- industrial electronics and telecommunication systems
- cooling systems for industrial and medical equipment
- infrared and nuclear radiation sensors cooling
- matrix cooling in night vision devices
- CCD matrix cooling etc.
