  • Patent number: 8341966
    Abstract: A climate control device having a cooling air outlet for cooled air, and a heated air outlet for heated air, wherein the air to be cooled is cooled by a cold side of a Peltier element arrangement and is blown out by a cooling air feed device via the cooled air outlet, and wherein the air to be heated is heated by a warm side of the Peltier element arrangement and is blown out by a heated air feed device via the heated air outlet. Each of the warm side and/or the cold side of the Peltier element arrangement is coupled to a coolant circuit, to which an air/fluid heat exchanger arrangement is connected. The device is used, for example, for cooling or ventilating a housing, particularly of a control cabinet.
