TECA Gives Back

Donation of Recirculating Liquid Chiller:

TECA is pleased to be a part of an educational exhibit in a science museum.

TECA donated a TLC-700, our most popular model of Recirculating Liquid Chiller to the New York Hall of Science (NYSCI). The TLC-700 is part of the “Search for Life” exhibition. Specifically, it cools Mars and The North Pole in an exhibit exploring how Earth’s denser atmosphere holds heat better than Mars’s thin atmosphere.

 

 

 

Special Note: The NYSCI has been temporarily closed since September 1, 2021 due to hurricane damage. Learn More

CALIBRATION

Calibration:

calibration using TLC-1200HC liquid chiller calibration with liquid chiller

 

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.

SEMICONDUCTORS

Cooling Semiconductors:

A research oriented organization uses TECA’s TLC-900 recirculating liquid chiller to control the temperature of a semiconductors test stage where proximity of TEC would produce electromagnetic noise hard to screen.

Temperature controlled fluid supplied by TLC-900 keeps their test stage cooled and free of noise.

TESTING PROPERTIES OF MATERIALS

Testing Material Properties:

testing material properties

A materials scientist at a state university uses TECA’s TLC-900 Liquid Chiller to cool transducers for an elastic modulus apparatus. The apparatus measures the elastic modulus as function of temperature. The elastic modulus is a material property. It defines the stiffness of material. It varies with temperature and is used in design.

The customer uses the TLC-900 Liquid Chiller to cool a plate, which then cools from 400C to between 30C and 50C.

CHEMICAL VAPOR DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM

Chemical Vapor Distribution System:

130-tlc-900

An OEM customer integrates TECA’s Model TLC-900 Liquid Chiller into a bubbler system designed to distribute chemical vapor via a carrier gas. The bubbler vessel is filled with the liquid chemical. The carrier gas is bubbled through the vessel and TECA’s TLC-900 Liquid Chiller maintains the chemical at a temperature determined by the end user, to maximize process control. The customer chose TECA’s TLC-900 Liquid Chiller over others because of its heating and cooling capability and the versatility of its universal input voltage (100-240 VAC). The customer’s system is sold worldwide and quality and reliability are key. The customer shared with us: “Before we used TECA products, we had half a dozen failed units over in China that my boss had to fix. I’m talking chillers that have only been in service for less than 4 months. In all, there have been at least ten of them go bad over the years. Some of the current orders we have with you are replacement units for the failed ones. We love your products. You are putting the competition to shame. Keep up the good work.”
