Thermoelectric sub-assemblies TECs on Headers

In a large number of applications thermoelectric modules are incorporated into packages or mounted on headers. Our core competence is to provide a fully tested thermoelectric sub-assembly (TEC mounted on a header), minimizing this way the risk of possible TEC damaging during mounting process for our customers. Our specialists professionally solder the thermoelectric cooler on standard headers / packages or in housings provided by the customer. TECs will undergo testing twice – before and after mounting. This increases the reliability of your final product, saves time and money.

Our service starts from trial volumes for fast prototyping up to high volume production. During product development we analyse the application and provide the most optimal TEC solution.

The term “thermoelectric sub-assembly” means a thermoelectric cooler mounted into standard or customized package. Thermoelectric sub-assembly is a perfect solution for fast and easy integrating into final application. There is a range of industry standard headers and packages, that are usually used with thermoelectric coolers. TEC Microsystems provides the range of thermoelectric solutions based on most common headers and packages. Thermoelectric coolers are mounted by high-quality soldering process with strict QC control. The process is flux-free and made in vacuum environment. All the sub-assemblies pass 100% quality control.
