When i was a miner i just used a roof fan to expel the hot air out a window, was a cheap easy fix n worked great

Thanks, but there’s no window in the room I have my setup in! Do you have any other suggestions?

Roof fan to the ducts, the cfm of the fan is extreme so it'll push the air out, trust me

Putting the fan at the other end pulling air through will give you greater throughput, if you weren't already suggesting that.

Hi, yes this is what I will be trying tomorrow! Going to have a duct fan midway through the ducting to try to help pull air through. Will update after.

Hi everyone! I need some help/advice. I have 13 Antminer S9s in a ~180sq ft room. The miners are on a 5 tier wire shelving unit. There are 4 miners on the first tier and 3 miners on tiers 2-4. Each miner pushes out air at about 250 CFM. The issue is that this makes the room very hot (which is bad for the other equipment in the room). The room temperature gets up to about 110°F with the miners on vs about 76°F with them off. The miners are about 12 ft away from a louvered (slotted) door that leads directly outside and the room is still getting too hot.

If the door is open and all of the miners are running, the chip temps on the miners don’t get too crazy (mid 90°sC) but the room is still too hot and I obviously can’t keep the door open 24/7. We have tried to attach 4” ducting to each miner that goes up into the ceiling and then ultimately over to exhausting outside. This kept the room temperature fine but the miners/hashing boards kept failing and showing the fault light. I checked the logs of the machines and every time they failed it would say Fatal Error: temperature too high! But the weird part is that the chip temps were always within the suggest range (80°-110°C). We assumed this was because the air being exhausted into the ducts wasn’t being pushed all the way out and would sit in the ducting.

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to get all of the hot exhaust out of the room (with or without ducting).

Thanks!

Hi, I have multiple Antminer S9s (latest batch). Will Minera allow me to monitor them?

Edit: my intent is to monitor any errors and the chip temps of each hash board

This should do it

https://"Redacted"

2 things..  (not to be mean etc...but)

1) its rude to post a link in someones topic pointing to another thing of software thats 'competing'
 and
2) from that forum link:  " Antminer and SSH management
Use "Redacted" to setup privileged API access for all your Bitmain Antminer ASIC's at
once. Set and schedule frequency changes for Antminer (not available on S9 batch 16 or
later running bmminer 2.0)."

just saying Smiley


So i got my miners last week from Bitmain (part of the late May 2017 shipment). Do you think i will be unable to use any monitoring software? They all use BMiner 2.0
