Product information "PID1500 TEC Temperature Controllers"

Output Current TEC ±1.5 A; PCB Mount; Supply Voltage 5-12 VDC; Temperature Stability 0.003°C

The robust circuitry of Wavelength Electronics’ PID1500 series of TEC temperature controllers provides ultra-stable, low noise temperature control from a single output DC supply, achieving 0.003 °C temperature stability. Onboard controls make this package plug and play.

The linear, PI control loop offers maximum stability, while the bipolar current source has been designed for higher efficiency. The PID1500 series drives up to 1.5 A for either thermoelectrics (bipolar) or resistive heaters (unipolar). An evaluation board simplifies prototyping. Heatsinking is already provided to support operation across a -20 to +85 °C operating range. The integral heatsink can be removed to mount the module to a system chassis.

The PID1500 series of TEC temperature controllers is easily configured for any design. Virtually any type of temperature sensor can be used, and a built-in switchable sensor bias current source simplifies use with resistive temperature sensors. The Proportional Gain (P) is adjustable with an onboard single turn trimpot.

Use an onboard trimpot to adjust the setpoint or the Analog Input pin for remote control. Use another onboard trimpot to set the maximum output current to the load or set it with a resistor between pins 1 & 2. A switch between those pins acts as a remote enable / disable. Remove a jumper to operate resistive heaters with a unipolar output current. Two monitor pins provide access to the temperature setpoint voltage and the actual sensor voltage.

Free, effective and responsive technical support is available to simplify integration of Wavelength products into your OEM design. Standard products can be easily modified to meet your application requirements. Get in touch with the AMS Technologies temperature controller experts to discuss your customized solution!
