U.S. Patent 5,817,188
 
 

MELCOR's new ThermaTEC™ keeps on cooling at temperatures that would cook other TECs: +225°C. And only ThermaTEC offers MELCOR reliability, and at a reasonable cost. For cooling, heating, or power generation, ThermaTEC is the ultimate high-temp TEC.

The ThermaTEC series is designed for high temperature applications and packaging (+225°C). These rugged TECs were designed to withstand the demands of repeated cycling over a large temperature range. The patented technology offers the greatest operational flexibility. ThermaTEC can also be used for power generation; converting waste heat into electrical energy. The possibilities are endless.
