If the products that you are testing at these low temperatures dissipate much power, then using thermoelectric coolers will be difficult. Liquid cooling the hot side of the cooler is almost certainly going to be needed. A proper environmental chamber is what you require, unfortunately they are large, noisy, power hungry and most of all expensive. However, there are businesses that rent out time on their chambers, you just turn up with your product and test equipment.
