Collection: Peltier Elements

Peltier elements provide two parallel ceramic plates between which a large number of so called peltier pellets are located. These pellets are made of semiconductor materials and contain rather exotic materials as Indium, Bismut and Tellur. When an electric current flows through the pellets, a temperature difference is generated at their contact surfaces. By this one side of the peltier element is cooled down while the other heats up.
