CP-131HT cold-plate cooler

CP-130HT Peltier-Thermoelectric Cold Plate Cooler

Exceptional capacity in a small size.
Fan speed can be externally controlled to reduce fan noise in low heat load
conditions. (Requires TC-720 temperature controller, sold separately).
Versatile mounting options.
Useful for medium heat loads in medical products, laser diode coolers, laboratory
instruments, etc.
Provides effective direct-contact cooling which is ideal for precision temperature
control.
Threaded holes are located in the cold plate for easy attachment of a temperature
sensor, interface plates, and other cooled plates.
Can cool to -20 °C (no load) as well as heat to 100 °C. Heating and cooling can be
automatically managed with a bipolar / heat & cool temperature controller.
CE marked, RoHS compliant.

Example: You need to maintain the cold plate at 15 °C while in a 25 °C ambient. The cooler can remove a maximum of
approximately 100 W of heat from the cold plate. If the heat load (actively generated heat plus the heat gain through
insulation, solar, vapor condensation, etc.) in the system exceeds this, you would need more coolers and/or a larger
cooler.

CP-130HT fan wiring connections

CP-130HT External Fan Connections

The external fan speed can be optionally
controlled using pulse width modulation at a
recommended 5 kHz to 25 kHz frequency
applied at terminal position 4 (SPD CTRL,
brown wire). The TC-720
temperature
controller can be used to provide this PWM
signal to reduce the audible noise at low
cooling demands (use 5400Hz frequency
setting).
Electrical ground to terminal
position 4 will reduce fan speed.
Terminal position 3 provides for a fan-speed
sensor, sending two pulses per revolution.
Consult with TE Technology if you wish to
use this feature.
Reducing the fan speed will result in a loss
of cooling performance and an increase in
the heat sink operating temperature.
NOTE: Do not apply solder (tin) to the
ends of the wires before inserting them into
the connector.
This will generate
excessive heat at the terminal resulting in
latent failures. Use copper wire only.
