Our Peltier design is unique in the industry. Our custom made Peltier Coolers are not the same as others used in video ccd camera and ccd imagers. Operating at the same voltage, the image above clearly shows the left Peltier being a standard one is not as cold as the MallinCam Peltier device. Peltier on the right frozed solid showing the effectiveness of our Peltier device at the same voltage. Result is a lower current consumption for the right amount of cooling necessary to SAFELY cool the video ccd sensor used in all MallinCam. Efficiency and low current draw means a safer and longer running camera all night long without killing your batteries in the field.

Image above shows a difference of 47 degrees Celsius below ambient of 26 degrees C on the test bench. Our MallinCam Peltier Coolers are the finest available anywhere on the market in any cameras. Many camera manufacturer use dual Peltier coolers even up to 3 Peltier coolers in their video ccd camera to get a marginal cooling. Our MallinCam Peltier Cooler does better than dual Peltier using only one efficient cooler custom made for our cameras and ccd sensor used in each and every MallinCam.

Using the same voltage under same operating conditions, the left Peltier clearly lacking proper cooling. Condensation is visible on the surface of the standard Peltier cooler. On the right, the MallinCam Peltier Cooler is clearly cooler using the same voltage and conditions as the left one. Result is solid ice condition which offers a more efficient cooling at a lower voltage and using less current draw as normal peltier coolers would. This mean a better efficient cooling under all operating condition using up to 60% less power than a normal Peltier cooler. MallinCam ThermoElectric Coolers System are truly the finest available on the market today.

GIF animation above is of a video ccd sensor going through a thermal shock while observing Stephan Quintet through a telescope being DEEP COOLED. Beware of other brands claiming their Peltier coolers are better. The truth is video ccd sensors are not intended to be DEEP COOLED. Only MallinCam Design Mild Cooling will assure long life, durability and dependability with the finest live image obtainable in the industry.
