Thermoharvesting Wireless Sensor System

Micropelt TE-CORE /RF

Congratulations !

You have chosen a powerful and versatile thermal energy harvesting module. The TE-CORE /RF serve you for

desk and lab evaluation purposes or it may be used as an embedded green power supply for energy auton-

omous low-power electrical systems - typically with low duty cycles for control or maintenance.

We appreciate your choice of using Micropelt's thermoharvesting technology to explore the use of free am-

bient thermal power or waste heat instead of batteries. For a smooth start and sustainable success with your

new device, please consider the following:



Avoid intensive mechanical stress on the heat sink (shear or shock).



Do not expose the TE-CORE /RF Module to temperatures exceeding 105 °C [221°F].



Protect the device against extensive humidity and direct water exposure



The heat sink may be removed or replaced with appropriate care.

Important Notices – Please read carefully prior to use

1. Micropelt Products are prototypes

Micropelt supplies thermoelectric coolers and generators, as well as energy harvesting modules (hereinafter

referred to as “Prototype Products”). The Prototype Products distributed by Micropelt to date are prototypes

that have not yet been released to manufacturing and marketing for regular use by end-users. The Prototype

Products are still being optimized and continuously tested. As such, the Prototype Products may not fully

comply with design-, marketing-, and/or manufacturing-related protective considerations, including product

safety and environmental measures typically found in end products that incorporate such semiconductor

components or circuit boards.

In addition, the Products have not yet been fully tested for compliance with the limits of computing devices,

neither pursuant to part 15 of FCC rules nor pursuant to any other national or international standards, which

are designed to provide reasonable protection against radio frequency interference.

2. Use of Products restricted to demonstration, testing and evaluation

Micropelt’s Prototype Products are intended exclusively for the use for demonstration, testing and evalua-

tion purposes.

The Prototype Products must not be used productively. In particular, the Prototype Products must not be

used in any safety-critical applications, such as (but not limited to) life support systems, near explosion en-

dangered sites, and/or any other performance critical systems.

The Prototype Products must only be handled by professionals in the field of electronics and engineering

who are experienced in observing good engineering standards and practices.
