Capacity Rating: 31 watts at a 0°C temperature difference.
Example Applications: Small laser diodes and laboratory instruments.
Features: This cold plate provides effective direct contact cooling in our lowest cost standard assembly. The lack of an extender block between the module and cold plate helps make this our smallest cold plate. The cooler is best suited for small heat loads where a large temperature difference is not needed. Can be used for heating and cooling. Powered by 12 VDC, it has the lowest power consumption of any of our standard cold plates, which makes it compatible with all of our temperature controllers. Labeled wiring cables are included free of charge when purchasing interconnected standard products on the same order (thermoelectric cooling assembly or module, temperature controller and/or a power supply). The number of cables included (1-3 pairs) will depend on the number of components being interconnected.

NOTE WHEN DOWNLOADING FILES: When saving a solid model some browsers change the name of the file extension or opens it as a text file. If this happens save the file to your computer using the “Save link as…” option and then rename the file extension back to the appropriate type before using. (PC Users: Right click on the file link and select “Save link as…” from the menu. Mac Users: Hold the ‘Ctrl’ button on your keyboard while clicking on the file link and select “Save link as…” from the menu.) Alternatively, you can download as normal and rename the .htm or .html extension back to .x_t or .stp before using.

TC-36-25-RS232
$644.00 Add to cart Product DetailsThe TC-36-25 RS232 is a bi-polar (heat and cool) proportional-integral-derivative temperature controller that can modulate power input from 12 V up to 36 V, or from 0 V to 36 V with a second power supply, at currents of up to 25 A. The controller comes standard with a temperature sensor (thermistor), but it can also be used with common 10 k ohm thermistors. In addition, Windows-compatible software and an RS232 cable are provided for direct communication via the serial communication port. LabVIEW-based GUI available as a download, the LabVIEW source code is available free of charge upon request, and a sample read and write command programmed in Python is also available for download.

TC-24-10
$136.00 Add to cart Product DetailsThe TC-24-10 is a RoHS compliant proportional-integral (PI) temperature controller developed for applications requiring a low cost, basic temperature controller. Set-point and tuning adjustments are made via potentiometer. It can modulate power from 9V up to 26 V at currents up to 10 A when using a single power supply. The controller can also modulate from 0 V up to 50 V when using two power supplies, making this a good choice for controlling low-voltage modules. As with all of our controllers, a standard temperature sensor (15K thermistor) is included.

TC-48-20
$506.00 Add to cart Product DetailsThe TC-48-20 is an easy to use yet powerful cool-only or heat-only PWM temperature controller. It is housed in a die-cast aluminum box, incorporates a keypad and display, and is capable of controlling from 0 to 50 volts and up to 20 amps. Two versatile alarm outputs are included, each capable of switching up to 1 amp of current. If a true linear-output control system is desired (for applications extremely sensitive to electrical noise) the TC-48-20 can be used as the control head for high-power, variable-output linear supplies. Most control parameters can be programmed via the built-in keypad, but the controller can also be connected to a computer via an optional RS232 serial cable for more advanced program control as well as data graphing and data logging. The software is shipped as a stand-alone program, but the LabVIEW source code (version 2011 and higher) is also available upon request and a sample read and write command programmed in Python is also available for download.

TC-36-25-RS485
$708.00 Add to cart Product DetailsThe TC-36-25 RS485 is a bi-polar (heat and cool) proportional-integral-derivative temperature controller that can modulate power input from 12 V up to 36 V, or from 0 V to 36 V with a second power supply, at currents of up to 25 A. The controller comes standard with a temperature sensor (thermistor), but it can also be used with common 10 k ohm thermistors. Multiple controllers can be daisy-chained together and run off a single communication port using the optional RS485 Adapter (USB). Windows-compatible software is provided for easily programming the controller. The LabVIEW-based software is shipped as a stand-alone program, the LabVIEW source code (version 2011 and higher) is available free of charge upon request, and a sample read and write command programmed in Python is also available for download.
