Description
Dual Mega-fan Cooling system with Adjustable Thermostat & a gigantic Air-chamber base & multi-speed fan controlThis dual-120mm fan unit is designed sit on your component's top air vents, and to add cooling to AV receivers, amps, satellite receivers and other electronic components.
It has a special raised air-chamber base, which covers 145 square inches (14.5" x 10") of your component's top vents.
Air is pulled from your component over the full area of this huge raised air-chamber base.
The system is temperature controlled, via a built-in thermostat:
The fans will not come on until the area under the raised base reaches the temperature you have set.
When the fans are on, you will feel a steady stream of warm air as the fans pulls the hot air out of the casing, and at the same time creating a vortex of cooling air inside your unit, pulling air up from the bottom/side vents. When the temperature of your unit cools down below the set temperature, the fans shuts off automatically. This cooling system is intended for Amplifiers, Receivers and other components with top air vents -- especially Onkyo, Sony, and other hot receivers.

Features
This cooling system has two high-quality, low-noise 120mm fans, with long-lasting and quiet fluid dynamic bearings.
It includes a built-in adjustable thermostat, which is located in the center of the fan unit, and which turns the fans on and off automatically.
The fan unit has a specially-constructed raised air-chamber base that enlarges the area of airflow, while also sealing air and preventing vibrations. This base covers over 145 square inches. Please make sure that the top of your component has a flat area on top that is at least 14.5" x 10".
Don't worry if your air vents are smaller (or larger) than the air-chamber base -- it is designed to adapt to any size vents.
Includes a multi-speed power transformer, which plugs into any 120 volt outlet. You control the speed of the fan, using this multi-speed transformer, which can be set to any one of 6 different speeds.
INTERNATIONAL BUYERS:
The unit's power transformer (supplied with the cooling system), can be switched to either 110/120 volt or 220/240 volt operation. However, the transformer uses the standard US-style 2-prong plug.
Contact me if you need an adapter plug
(there's no charge),
and specify one of the three types: 1) NZ/AU (2 slanted prongs) 2) Euro (2 round prongs), or UK (three large prongs).
This powerful component-top fan system, even when running at 1/3 to 1/2 speed (recommended), will replace a volume of air equal to that of most electronic components at least 40 times per minute (once every 2 seconds!).
All cooling system parts connect together using special heavy-duty Molex quick-connect plugs, which allows the parts to be separated for easy wire-routing.
Installing the system is easy -- just plug it in and drop the fan unit on top of your receiver! It comes completely assembled, with all components installed, wired and ready to go!
