Ferrotec (USA) Corp. recently acquired the thermoelectric power generation product line from Teledyne Energy Systems Inc. The product line consists of thermoelectric power generation modules and the Telan® series of power generation systems.
Ferrotec is supporting the installed Telan customer base with a complete range of consumables and spare parts. Power generation systems will be available in three to six months.

Thermoelectric power generation systems convert natural gas or propane to electrical power using thermoelectric modules— solid-state devices that convert thermal energy to electrical energy. They are used in remote locations where power is required but solar energy is unreliable or insufficient. Applications include offshore engineering, oil pipelines, remote telemetry, and data collection.

Once complete, manufacturing of these products will be transferred to Ferrotec’s 1 million sq ft manufacturing facilities in China for cost-effective fabrication.
