Title: What Power is Used for the Bitmain APW3-12-1600 PSU Series Post by: SIRacer09 on January 29, 2016, 03:01:38 PM I have 2 Bitmain APW3-12-1600 PSU Series PSUs and I'm wondering what power input they need. I live in the U.S. and I've read that some people are running 220v input. This PSU comes with a standard 3 prong plug. I have the electrician that we deal with at work coming out to install a new line for these, but I need to know what to tell him to put in since a 220v 30 amp circuit has a different plug, not the standard 3 prong. What is everyone else using? I'd like to get my S7s up and going! Thanks!

Since you have an electrician you're working with, you probably won't have to worry about adapters but this is the PDU I used.

you want this for 30 amp breaker L6 30r http://www.ebay.com/itm/Leviton-Nema-L6-30-Locking-Receptacle-30-Amp-250-Volt-/321924264154? and this for your pdu http://www.ebay.com/itm/Pulizzi-Eaton-Powerware-ePDU-T982F3-Series-Monitored-PDU-T982F3-F-SL-109-240V-/321000822839? this is a 200 dollar pdu new it is fused and the plug will match the receptacle above. it can run 4 s-7's 2 on each fuse. the 30 amp 240 volt breaker can handle 5800 watts safely you can do 4 antminer psu's since you will be drawing about 1400 watts on each one. |
