Custom Thermoelectric Products

Designed and Built to Your Specifications

Whether it is a wholly custom product or a modified version of one of our standard products, more than thirty years of experience goes into every design. Performance, size, manufacturability, cost target – we optimize all of these and give you exactly what you need.

▰ Optimized for your application

▰ Customized power consumption, size, and noise level

▰ Guaranteed reliability and consistency in availability and manufacturing


An exclusive line of heat sinks, modules, vapor seals, and special optimization ensures that your competition will not surpass you.

A custom thermoelectric assembly gives the capacity and features needed without increased cost for anything extra.

Optimize physical geometry for most efficient heat transfer

Target specific operating voltages and currents by wiring modules in combinations of series and parallel and adjusting semiconductor element geometry and number of couples.

 

Heat Sinks & Shrouds

ENGINEERING CONSIDERATIONS

Geometry:  Optimize the size and density of the fins to find the optimal balance of surface area
and air flow.

Orientation:  Direct air through the middle of the fins and out both ends for optimal efficiency or push air parallel to the fins for easy ducting.

Fans:  Maximize air flow and heat transfer while minimizing noise.

Shrouds:  Protect fins against physical damage and aid in routing air flow.

Coatings & Anodizing:  Protect against corrosion and degradation in harsh environments.

CUSTOMIZATION OPTIONS

  • High-Density Extrusions

  • Bonded Fins

  • Pin Fins

  • Folded Fins

  • Custom Shrouds

  • Protective Covers

Fans & Air Movers

ENGINEERING CONSIDERATIONS

Air Flow:  Maximize air flow for the fin geometry.

Power Consumption:  Balance power consumption and heat generated within the enclosure against net exchanger performance.

Speed:  Balance noise and power levels

Size:  Minimizing thickness and footprint, reduce protrusion in enclosures, minimize heat sink width

Noise Level:  Balance performance against noise and size.

Vibration:  Isolate fans through vibration mounts or decoupling from the exchanger

CUSTOMIZATION OPTIONS

  • Tubaxial Fans

  • Squirrel Cage Blowers

  • Operating Voltages

  • Speed Control

  • Tachometer Outputs

Fluid Loops

ENGINEERING CONSIDERATIONS

Tube Material:  Stainless Steel and Copper Tubes

Tube Size and Length:  Optimized diameter and length for high heat transfer and low pressure restriction across the operating temperature range.

Static Mixers:  Static mixers and spring mixing coils improve fluid mixing to improve heat transfer in low-flow-rate applications.

Special Fittings:  Compression fittings, tube beads, or threaded fitting holes to interface with the fluid path.

CUSTOMIZATION OPTIONS

  • Traditional in-line liquid cooling

  • Compressed CO2 liquification

  • Dehumidification of instrument air

  • Single-piece tubes swaged into base plates

  • Captive tubes with cover plates
