Title: Insulated venting size?
Post by: CrypotoCreanis on January 07, 2018, 03:01:16 PM
Hey all.

I will have 3 S9 miners, and I plan on venting them all into 1 outlet, stepping from 4" adapters to Wye adapters and ultimately to the same pipe using an inline fan to aid in suction then and out the basement window.

Is 8" ducting sufficient or do I need 10" ? Will I have too much of a bottleneck going from the 4" to each adapter?

I would run a larger duct on the outlet of the miner. My S7 only increases slightly in temp with a 4" adapter, but my S9s went up a lot when I tried to use that size duct. I am having a buddy 3D print some 6" exhaust outlets (for me this is all temporary until my proper setup is finished). As for the other duct sizing I believe you can find some HVAC calculators out there to help. Each S9 puts out roughly 225 CFM of air and any kind of restriction raises the chip temp quick.
