AMS Technologies’ mDC-CT-4-KIT direct cooling system cascades a thermoelectric (Peltier) element and a compressor-based refrigerant circuit. Based on the "direct evaporation" technology, the compressed refrigerant evaporates directly on the hot side of the thermoelectric (Peltier) module and thus dissipates the heat very effectively and with high heat flux.

The Compressor/ Peltier cascade significantly expands the temperature range of the capabilities of the individual technologies, enabling a very wide operating temperature range from -50°C to +150°C in a compact device. Utilizing suitable insulation, constant operation at -50°C is possible, while still providing about 4 W cooling power at this extreme temperature point.

The mDC-CT-4-KIT mini compressor/thermoelectric plate-to-air cooling kit does not require a water circuit, is very quiet, low-vibration and maintenance-free. Possible applications are in the fields of analytics, molecular reactors, rheology, or viscosity measurement – or wherever very low temperatures have to be maintained with moderate heat loads.

Direct evaporation technology is also very suitable for cooling and temperature stabilization of laser diodes or laser diode stacks at temperatures of around +25°C – an application area covered by AMS Technologies’ mDC-T-130-24-KIT thermoelectric plate-to-air cooling kit.

For customer requirements that cannot be covered by our mDC-T-130-24-KIT or mDC-CT-4-KIT, AMS Technologies’ thermal management specialists are happy to develop a direct cooling solution tailored to your needs – based on Peltier or compressor technology, or both – and offer all services from development and proof-of concept to series production. Get in touch with us now to discuss your customized direct cooler.

P800 Recirculating Chillers
P800 Recirculating Chillers

Cooling Capacity 1-15 kW @+20 °C; Process Fluid Flow Rate 3-30 lpm @≤8.5 bar; 3/8”, 1/2”, 3/4”, 1” Fittings; Temperature Stability ±0.1-±0.5 K Termotek’s P800 series of stand-alone cooling units for optimum ratio of dimensions and performance are used wherever there is a need for precise cooling and the need to avoid integrating the refrigeration unit in a separate machine housing. High performance in a space-saving, mobile housing – this has proved to be a tried-and-trusted combination over many years in all fields of laser cooling, including optical assemblies, in laboratories, in the printing industry and on machine tools and for HSC milling. The practical arrangement of all the components in the compact housing means not only low maintenance requirements but low vibrations and noise emissions too. The P800 recirculating chillers are available for power ranges from 1 to 15 kW. P800 chillers provide active cooling and therefore contain a refrigeration circuit with a compressor and a heat exchanger for a variety of media. Both the refrigeration circuit and the cold water temperature are monitored and controlled by a central control system. The cold water is reliably fed to where it is required by a pump. An optional particle filter in the cold water outlet keeps the circuit clean, and a flow sensor for the return flow guarantees the required stable operation. The waste heat is either emitted to the environment via speed-controlled fans or transferred to a central water circuit via heat exchangers, so that the waste heat can be used, for example, for preheating the process water. Key Features: Compact, Stand-alone Enclosure Compact and Flexible in Terms of Installation Small Footprint - Excellent Cooling Power to Size Ratio Extremely High Level of Temperature Stability: ±0.1 to ±0.5 K Reliable Operation Low Noise and Vibration Levels Low Maintenance Requirements Small Water Tank Cooling Capacity 1 to 15 kW Flow Rate: 3 to 30 l/min and More on Demand Designed for Water With Additions or De-ionized Water Alarm Dry Contacts via 9-pole Sub-D on Rear Panel Water Level Display Speed-controlled Fan RS232 Interface Remote Start Via 24 VDC Signal 50/60 Hz Design Refrigerant: R134a Applications: Cooling of Lasers (CO2, Passively Cooled Lasers, Fiber Lasers); Cooling of Medical and Laboratory Equipment; Printing Industry; HSC Spindles; Tooling Machines; Laboratories; Optical Assemblies

Multi-Stage Peltier Elements
Multi-Stage Peltier Elements

Multi-Stage Thermoelectric ModulesImax 2.8-9.5 A; Qmax 10-59 A; Vmax 5.27-15.8 V; ΔTmax 83-86 KMulti-stage thermoelectric modules from S&PF MODUL are engineered for solid-state cooling applications that require significantly higher temperature differentials than single-stage solutions can provide. By stacking multiple Peltier stages in a cascaded architecture, these modules enable deep cooling while retaining the inherent advantages of thermoelectric technology, including precise control, mechanical robustness, and maintenance-free operation. With more than 30 years of experience in thermoelectric design and production, S&PF MODUL delivers multi-stage modules with predictable performance and long-term reliability for scientific and industrial use.The multi-stage design allows each thermoelectric layer to contribute incrementally to the overall temperature drop, making these modules suitable for applications that demand low cold-side temperatures under controlled heat loads. High-quality semiconductor materials, durable ceramic substrates, and stable internal interconnections ensure consistent electrical and thermal characteristics, even during continuous operation or repeated thermal cycling. The portfolio includes a wide range of stage counts, form factors, and power ratings to support flexible system design. Key features• Cascaded multi-stage Peltier architecture for high temperature differentials• Designed for deep cooling beyond the limits of single-stage thermoelectric modules• Wide selection of standard configurations with varying stage counts and cooling capacities• High-grade thermoelectric semiconductor materials with stable performance• Robust ceramic substrates and metallization for long-term mechanical and thermal reliability• Customization options for dimensions, electrical parameters, and lead layouts• Low thermal resistance interfaces for efficient coupling to heat sinks or liquid cooling systems• Controlled manufacturing processes for reproducible unit-to-unit performance• Suitable for continuous operation in precision cooling environments ApplicationsS&PF MODUL multi-stage thermoelectric modules are used in applications where extended temperature differentials and precise thermal control are essential. Typical use cases include cooling of infrared detectors, CCD and CMOS sensors, and other highly sensitive components in analytical and imaging systems. They are also employed in spectroscopy, laser diode stabilization, and scientific instrumentation that operates at reduced temperatures to improve signal quality and measurement accuracy.Additional applications include cryogenic pre-cooling stages, compact laboratory refrigeration units, environmental simulation equipment, and advanced test systems in aerospace, telecommunications, and automotive development. In these contexts, multi-stage thermoelectric modules provide a compact and reliable alternative to compressor-based cooling technologies, particularly where vibration-free operation and fine temperature control are required. What’s next?Achieving optimal performance with a multi-stage Peltier module requires careful consideration of heat load, target temperature differential, electrical supply, and heat rejection design.
