Four Advantages of Thermoelectric Wine Refrigerator

When it comes to the operating principle and system of a wine refrigerator, we often care about how dose it work and the advantages or disadvantages of different systems. There’re two different refrigeration systems: compressor units and thermoelectric units. Compressor cooling system includes four fundamental parts: compressor, condenser, throttle valve and evaporator. They can heat up a refrigerant, later, after it’s cooled, the heat will evaporate and the refrigerant will reduce the temperature inside. In contrast, thermoelectric cooling systems are solid state semiconductor devices without moving parts, fluids, chlorofluorocarbons or other chemicals, in the cooling system of thermoelectric wine refrigerator, thermocouples (also called Peltier modules) are used. Modules include two different semiconductors between two ceramic plates, it can driving heat from one surface to the other and cooling the air inside the appliance.

From technical explanation, thermoelectric wine refrigerator maybe more advanced than compressor-based one. In particular, there’re four advantages.

1. Environmentally friendly

Thermoelectric wine refrigerator don’t contain cooling agents like chlorofluorocarbons and hydrochlorofluorocarbon that are harmful to our ozone layer. It produces heat which circulates and then is condensed and cooled. In this way, the refrigeration systems can always keep cold. So, we can say it is environmentally friendly.

2. Fewer vibrations

It’s been said that if a wine bottle is shaken, the quality of the wine will be affected, because vibration disturbs the solid particles in wines and flavor will be changed. Thermoelectric wine refrigerator is not work with a traditional compressor, so, it will result in fewer vibrations. A quiet environment is important for your wines in the long run.

3. Won’t take up a lot of space

Generally, thermoelectric wine refrigerator is a compact appliance, it won’t take up a lot of space, so, there’s no need to worry about your limited space, you can put it at where you like.

4. Energy saving

The last advantage of thermoelectric wine refrigerator is that they use less electricity during their operation. So, it will help you to save a lot of money on energy cost every year.

Candor’s thermoelectric wine refrigerators are designed by the wine itself. Four fundamental parts–compressor, condenser, throttle valve and evaporator, simple terms work together to circulate and heat up a refrigerant.
