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.

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.

Friction Stir Welded Cold Plates for Power Semiconductors
0.003 K/W to 0.055 K/W; 4 l/min to 80 l/min; Power Semiconductors; square Our high performance cold plates made from friction stir welded aluminium are the ideal solution for cooling demanding power semiconductors and modules. Within our range, a variety of models are available from a 1.4 kg cold plate dedicated to one press pack disk semiconductor all the way to a large and powerful 22.6 kg version capable of dissipating the heat of six 140 mm x 190 mm IGBT modules. In addition to various standard configurations, our thermal management experts are happy to customize solutions regarding thermodynamics and fluid dynamics as well as the configuration of power modules. The use of friction stir welding technology (FSW) makes the production of our cold plates both safe and economical. Friction stir welding technology permits particularly homogeneous joints without additional welding material. Due to this homogeneity of the material, FSW joints are particularly corrosion-resistant and can withstand high loads. With their high heat dissipation capacity, the cold plates are suitable for the following applications, among others: 62 mm Power Semiconductor Modules 150 x 166 mm Cold Plates 140 x 190 mm Power Semiconductor Modules PrimePACK 3 Power Semiconductor Modules EconoPack Power Semiconductor Modules Press-Pack Discs Aluminium water cold plates for IGBT modules are available in standard configurations, suitable for 130x140, 140x190, Semikron SKiiP3 and 4, SKiM63 and 93, Semipack2, Infineon PrimePACK2 and PrimePACK3, EconoDual3, Fuji Electric High Power 6-Pack, Mitsubishi/Powerex Mega Power Dual IGBT and others. When cooling press pack power semiconductor discs, even and uniform pressure distribution is very important. Our FSW cold plates, specially designed for cooling press packs, are suitable for 4", 5" and 6" discs, offering a solid construction, perfectly flat surfaces for an optimal contact to the power semiconductor as well as very good thermal performance. For optimum handling, we offer different options for centering the Press Pack discs as well as tools for replacement.
