Installation Recommended mounting methods: Bonding with thermal epoxy or soldering with metallized ceramics. For additional information, please refer to our TEC Installation Guide. Operation Cautions For maximum reliability, storage and operation below 85C in a non-condensing environment is recommended. To minimize thermal stress, use linear/proportional temperature control or a similar method rather than an ON/OFF method.
