CUSTOM MILITARY LIQUID CHILLER

Military Liquid chiller:

Here’s another custom military application by TECA.

Military grade liquid chiller

 

The United State Navy needed a liquid chiller to circulate coolant and also meet strict military requirements. TECA developed a custom thermoelectric liquid chiller using MIL rated components. This is a liquid chiller for circulating chilled coolant as part of a tracking system on a NAVY ship.

Note that the chilled liquid circuit is effectively “sandwiched“ between two heat sinks with rugged Mil 901 fans. Wiring and electrics are housed in a NEMA-4X/Harsh Environment enclosure with an O-ring gasket seal. This unit is rated for shipboard use in salt-spray, shock and vibration.

MEDICAL

Medical Application:

medical cooler

The customer needed a compact thermoelectric cooling system to cool flow of fluid through removable membrane liquid jacket used in a mobile medical application. TECA’s sales and engineering team worked with the customer and developed the product you see in the pictures above for the exclusive use of our customer.

The application is medical and will be protected by patent. Thermoelectric cooling will be employed for effective cooling of the brain for emergency treatment of stroke victims.

CHILLING PROCESS INK

Chilling Process Ink:

Here’s the way they’re all supposed to work:
September: Initial contact: Need help sizing unit that can maintain a liquid temperature between 25 °C – 35 °C in ambient conditions of 15 °C – 40° C. I need a unit for testing ASAP. In conjunction with sizing a chiller, I am also trying to size a heat exchanger. I need chiller flow rate and output temperature. Please call to discuss details.

CALIBRATION

Calibration:

A commercial laboratory uses TECA Chiller TLC-1200HC to discourage temperature gradients in a calibration system. Utilizing the built in temperature controller, the customer was able to successfully run the input and output to a temperature difference of zero. Designing a suitable calibration method was critical to the customer’s ability to release a new product to market.

The photos here illustrate the compact size of TECA’s TLC-1200HC.

FLUID DISPENSING

Fluid Dispensing:

fluid dispensing

A leading manufacturer of fluid dispensing systems uses one of our Thermoelectric Cold Plate and Temperature Controller for controlling the fluid temperature of adhesives, sealants, lubricants and other materials in meter, mix and dispensing systems.
Unlike other larger, higher cost and less accurate heating and cooling devices, which use heater cartridges, refrigerant or water to heat and cool, these thermoelectric-effect temperature controllers use the Peltier-Seebeck effect to directly convert electrical voltage to thermal differentials. This effect, which is reversible, either heats or cools fluid materials with precision to the temperature set point. The compact Peltier thermoelectric device, temperature sensor and the temperature control is mounted to a manifold where the fluid passes through to be precisely heated, maintained or cooled.

CRYOGENIC FLUID CONTROL

Cryogenic Fluid Control:

Cryogenic fluid is extremely sensitive to temperature and pressure changes within an experimental environment. A custom-modified version of TECA’s LHP-300CPHC Liquid-Cooled Cold Plate is installed as part of a system which allows the customer to closely monitor and control temperature.

The long life expectancy and low maintenance requirements of the LHP-300CPHC offer reliability and convenience to the customer’s long-term research experiment.
