Not connected
1)
TEC element output pins and voltage measurement input pins are "ground-free".
Do not connect
any of
these pins to Ground, otherwise the electronic circuit will be damaged!
Attention
The maximum TEC output current for the TED4015 series is 15A. Use only the specified
connector type: 17W2 mixed DSUB plug with high power contacts A1 and A2 rated for at
least 15A current. For wiring of A1 and A2 use only wires rated for at least 15A current.
If Thorlabs laser diode mounts like TCLDM9, LDM21, or LM14S2 are used, the easiest way to
connect them using a shielded cable CAB4000 (rated TEC current is 5A).
