TEC1 12706 Peltier Module

The TEC1-12706 6A Thermoelectric Cooler Peltier Module is the simple application of the Peltier Thermoelectric Effect. The Peltier module features 127 semiconductor couples in the area of 40 x 40mm which very effectively cools and heats up to 90°C.

The thermoelectric cooler or TEC or Peltier module creates a temperature differential on each side. One side gets hot and the other side gets cool. They use to either warm something up or cool something down; above all, you can use either side. You can also take advantage of a temperature differential to generate electricity.

A thermoelectric cooler (TEC) module is a semiconductor-based electronic component that functions as a small heat pump. By applying the DC power source to a TEC, heat will be transferred from one side of the module to the other. It creates a cold and hot side. They are widely useful in industrial areas, for example, computer CPUs, CCDs, portable refrigerators, medical instruments, and so on.

Tips:

  • Operating Temperature: 138 Degree C.
  • Do not exceed Imax or Vmax when operating a module.
  • Please carry out moisture protection options (sealing) in final application use.
  • Life expectancy: 200,000 hours.
  • Failure rate based on long-time testing: 0.2%.

1. How to use a TEC1-12706 thermoelectric cooler?

To use your TEC1-12706, you must supply it with a 12V DC power source, observing the correct polarity. It is critical that you attach a heatsink to the hot side of the module to dissipate heat effectively. Failing to do so can cause the thermoelectric cooler to overheat and fail prematurely.

2. How to connect a TEC1-12706 Peltier module?

To connect the TEC1-12706 Peltier module, wire its red lead to the positive terminal and its black lead to the negative terminal of your 12V power supply. For applications like a small electric cooler or mini electric cooler, proper heat dissipation from the hot side is mandatory for the module to achieve a cooling effect.

3. How to generate electricity from a thermoelectric cooler?

A TEC1-12706 can be used as a thermoelectric generator by applying a significant temperature difference across its two faces. One side must be kept hot while the other is kept cold to leverage the Seebeck effect. The thermoelectric Peltier module will then produce a small DC voltage.

4. How to make a thermoelectric cooler using the TEC1-12706?

To create your own thermoelectric cooler, sandwich the TEC1-12706 module between a cold plate and a large heatsink for heat dissipation. Applying a thin layer of thermal paste between the surfaces will ensure good thermal contact. Powering the cooling module with a 12V supply will then begin the heat transfer process.

5. How to improve the performance of a TEC1-12706 Peltier cooler?

To maximize the efficiency of your Peltier cooler, use a high-quality heatsink and fan assembly on the hot side. Applying an even layer of thermal paste is also crucial for optimal heat transfer between the module and the heatsink. Running the module at its recommended voltage ensures it operates at its peak performance.

1. What is TEC1 12706? What does TEC mean?

Peltier Element TEC1-12706 is a thermoelectric cooling element that uses the Peltier effect to create a heat flux at the junction of two different types of materials.
TEC stands for Thermoelectric Coolers.

2. How does a Peltier module work?

Thermoelectric coolers operate according to the Peltier effect. The effect creates a temperature difference by transferring heat between two electrical junctions. A voltage is applied across joined conductors to create an electric current. When the current flows through the junctions of the two conductors, heat is removed at one junction and cooling occurs. Heat is deposited at the other junction.

3. How do I choose the correct Peltier for my application?

  • Estimate heat load of the object to be cooled
  • Define temperature working range of object and heat sink
  • Choose a Peltier element that satisfies the requirements
  • Choose a TEC controller with suitable power range
  • Choose a heat sink for the Peltier element
  • Choose a fan to air the heat sink (optional)
  • Choose the object temperature sensor and the optional sink sensor
  • Choose a power supply for the TEC controller

4. Can a Peltier Module cool a CPU?

Yes, you can use the thermoelectric cooler module to cool a CPU, but it must be paired with an efficient heat sink and thermal management system. Due to the heat generated on the hot side, proper ventilation and heat dissipation are critical. It’s best suited for DIY projects where active cooling beyond standard fans is needed.

5. Can I build my own Peltier cooler?

Absolutely—you can build a custom electric cooler using the TEC1-12706 module, a 12V power supply, and appropriate heat sinks. This setup works well for cooling small enclosures, beverages, or electronic components. Just ensure stable power delivery and thermal insulation to maximize efficiency.

6. Is a Peltier Module waterproof?

No, the Peltier Module is not waterproof and should be protected from moisture to prevent corrosion or electrical damage. If used in humid environments, seal the module and connections while ensuring heat transfer remains effective. Proper insulation helps maintain performance in damp conditions.

7. What's the lifespan of a Peltier Module?

Under stable operating conditions, the TEC1-12706 module typically lasts between 5–10 years. Avoid thermal cycling, overheating, or exceeding the rated 6A current to extend its life. Consistent voltage and proper heat dissipation are key to long-term reliability.

8. Can a Peltier Module generate electricity?

Yes, the Peltier Module can generate electricity when a temperature gradient is applied across its surfaces, converting heat differences into electrical voltage. While its primary function is cooling, this reverse thermoelectric effect allows it to be used in low-power energy harvesting experiments. It’s a great tool for educational and DIY projects exploring energy conversion.
