Notice: Improper tuning of this temperature controller (or any temperature controller) can lead to excessive thermal
cycling and/or overheating of the thermoelectric device, either of which are known to reduce the lifetime of any
thermoelectric device. Care should be taken to prevent the temperature of the thermoelectric device from going
beyond the range specified by the device manufacturer. Care should also be taken so that any thermal cycling of the
thermoelectric device is a result of changes in the controller’s set-point temperature and not instability at a given set
point due to improper selection of the tuning variables.
In no event shall TE Technology, Inc. be liable for any damages whatsoever (including without limitation, damage
for loss of business profits, business interruption, loss of business information, or any other pecuniary loss) arising
out of the use or inability to use this TE Technology, Inc. product, even if TE Technology, Inc. has been advised of
the possibility of such damages.
