Abstract
Systems and methods for thermoelectric refrigerated/frozen product storage and transportation are provided. A cooler includes active thermoelectric cooling to maintain internal temperature within cold chain or customer requirements. The active cooler can be used for storage and transportation of refrigerated and frozen food stuffs, medical or biological products, etc. The active cooler maintains stable and uniform temperature control. A drop in module (e.g., removable/replaceable) can convert any insulated box to active cooling. This can be a commercial transport tote that provides high efficiency. The control logic can be enabled as an API to offer remote monitoring/control to utilize on board, wireless, and networked. A use profile can be customized, and a subscription software package can enable this. The solutions described herein can be used across the whole commercial spectrum and can be ready to integrate into large quantity fleet systems.
