Process Cooling

AAC-145-4XT-E-HC-NF-CEMany high tech processes such as laser measurementation, surface analysis, and fluid particulate recognition require highly sophisticated measuring equipment. In order for this type of equipment to be accurate, it must maintain its calibration. Even small temperature swings can throw off the micro-measurements enough to cause systems to lose calibration and result in full process failure. Integrating a process cooling system that will maintain a consistent temperature is critical to the successful use of this type of equipment.

Traditional compressor-based air conditioners need to cycle-down in order to prevent damage to the compressor caused by quick starts and stops. This limitation prevents the cooler from quickly switching between heating and cooling which is necessary when pinpointing a single temperature. Vortex coolers create a temperature delta too large to be effective as a process cooler. They also lack the integral heating required to maintain one set point.

Thermoelectric coolers are excellent process coolers where precise temperature control is critical. When used in conjunction with optional heating and a digital temp controller, they are capable of holding a temperature within 1F of a set point. Due to their methodical cooling cycle that drops temperatures in small increments thermoelectric air conditioners are well suited for protecting sensitive instruments from temperature variations. Other product features that make EIC’s ThermoTEC series excellent process coolers:

  • Available in multiple sizes (200-5500 BTU)DTC-IMG
  • Both AC and DC voltage configurations
  • Both horizontal/top and vertical mounting orientations
  • Solid state design requires no maintenance
  • Robust construction able to withstand harsh environments

Industries that benefit from the use of thermoelectric air conditioning in process cooling:

  • Semiconductor manufacturing
  • Precision tooling
  • Testing and analysis
  • Laboratory testing and equipment
  • Laser measuring and analyzers

A stable temperature could be the difference between accurate and consistent operation and complete failure of the system. Let an EIC Solutions Sales Engineer evaluate your project today.
