In view of the unique product and potential for same that will be developed by Peltech currently and in the future, we would like to invite you to appreciate the technology employed by Peltech in general, as well as to best understand the use of the terms thermoelectricity, thermodynamic, thermotronic, and its origins. We have tried to best organize this material for your enjoyment and ease of comprehension, whether you are an early adopter, consumer, or one involved in R&D or product development.

*THERMOTRONICS is a science which studies the thermoelectric heat pumps and the relevant thermal processes, controlling these processes with electronics in order to obtain a very high precision of the flow of heat and temperatures 

**THE PELTIER EFFECT is the creation of a temperature difference and a heat flow from an electric direct current, and was observed in 1834 by Jean Peltier, a French physicist.   It occurs when an electric direct current (DC as opposed to AC) is passed through two dissimilar semiconductors (called N-Type and P-Type) that are connected to each other at two junctions (Peltier Junctions) The current drives a transfer of heat from one junction to the other: one junction cools off while the other heats up.   

Peltech uses the most advanced Peltier materials (Bismuth Telluride) sandwiched by two high quality ceramic plates and controlled by an original and patented electronic control.

This system architecture provides a very efficient thermoelectric Peltier effect with very precise control of the temperature and a reversible effect:  By changing the direction of the electric current, the side which was previously cooled down is heated up and visa versa.

Due to it’s recent and most successful product launch, the Peltech Ocean GEOtronic® models, which stabilize temperatures in aquariums is certain to raise good questions and concerns which need to be understood by the Merchandise Managers in the big box retailers; by those who install commercial aquariums as well as the ultimate consumer who are dedicated to the healthy selection and maintenance of their home aquariums. Simply click here on Peltech Ocean GEOtronic® and in a few pages you will better understand how the Ocean GEOtronic® models perform as well as they do.
