TEC1-12706 THERMOELECTRICAL COOLER – PELTIER MODULE – 12V, 6AMP – TEC1-12706
HOW PART No. TEC1-12706 Generated by Manufacture.?
TEC – Thermoelectric Cooler, 1 – #Single Stage, 127 – 127 P-N Junction couple , 06 – 6amp Current rating
What is TEC1-12706?
Such an instrument is also called a Peltier device, Peltier heat pump, solid state refrigerator, or thermoelectric cooler (TEC). It can be used either for cooling or heating, it can also be used as a temperature controller that either heats or cools.
How it’s Works?
Thermoelectric coolers operate according to the Peltier effect. The effect creates a temperature difference by transferring heat between two electrical junctions. … When the current flows through the junctions of the two conductors, heat is removed at one junction and cooling occurs.
Why price different modules are available in markets?
Price are depend on DTmax, Maxmium Operating Temperature is more price will increase.
Lower Price – Low Quality –DT max (≤ 25 degree) – Max Operating Temperature – 55~85 degree – Low Ceramic Materials – Low PN Junction Materials – light weight
High Price – High quality – DT max (62 ~72 degree) – Max Operating Temperature – 150~250 degree – Medium or High Quality Ceramic Material – High Quality basic PN Junction materials

How to Install TEC1-12706?
Required basic Accessories for Air Cooling Mode:
- TEC1-12706 or TEC1-12706A
- Heat sink (Min Size: 105 x 105 x 40mm or big size)
- Thermal Pasted (for conductive)
- Fan (Size: 40 x 40mm if Size used or Size: 80 x 80 back size)
- SMPS 12V 5Amp
- 1st Step – Check Cold side and Hot side with 12V 2~5Amp battery or by default COLD side is mark “TEC1-12706” & Blank is HOT side
- 2nd Step – USED Thermal Pasted on HOT side and Stick on central of Heat sink.
- 3rd Step – Install Fan with Heat sink as per your design.
- 4th step – RED wires and Black wires of TEC1-12706 & Fan joint together
- 5th Step – Joint RED wires in +V SMPS and Black wires –V SMPS
- 6th Step – Start SMPS for 40~60 second to check cooling on COLD side.
- 7th Step – if you are getting cooling on COLD side then you can continue with your LOAD.
Noted:
- Need to check your Heat sink temperature in 5 minutes interval is not getting hot then room temperature.
- If Heat sink temperature rise 5 ~10 degree in 5 ~15 minutes then you needs to replace Fan or Heat sink with Good quality otherwise your cold size will start getting hot due to DTmax different.
- You can get high Speed Fan or Change Fan Direction proper way so it can reduce maximum heat from Heat sink.
- OR Get BIG Heat sink size(200 x 105 x 40mm) and try again.
- OR If you are not getting your target temperature then goes with DT max 62 ~ 72 degree modules to reduce COLD side temperature.
- Still you are not getting your Target Temperature then USED Water Cooling System to reduce temperature around 5~-10 degree.
How to Install TEC1-12706 using water cooling system?
Required basic Accessories for water Cooling Mode:
