Topic: BITMAIN AntMiner APW3-12-1600 PSU Series - page 2. (Read 36649 times)
Can anyone verify the power factor on one of these? I'm wondering if the one I tested is defective, or if they're all crap with a PF of 0.93.
The first 2 I got from Bitmain have 12 PCIe connectors. Also no provision for DC on/off unless there is a header inside. Now they all come with 10 PCIe and a DC on/off pigtail plug w/jumper on it.
I have 3 originals from S5+ day's with 12 connectors. It did not need more then the the 10 but it did have it.
Not sure what caused them to remove it. Although they might have decided 10 is all they will use and that is quite a bit.
np. Think my first 2 were from late batch 2 or early 3. I was luckily cautious enough to sit out the first round of them.
Since the s7's came out they are all I use. Most of my HP 1200w PSU's got sent to sidehack to run the s5's I have hosted with him and the my IBM PSU's are in use here.
Just got simpler to use something premade for the job. So far zero problems with now over a dozen of them.
I really have to update pix of the main farm. This is pre-s7 days http://phluph.imgur.com/all/
The area looks downright barren now but has more hash power yet slightly less kw used than what it took pre s7's.

Thanks for the clarification.

So more false advertising that they don't want to correct. Gotcha!
Typo IIRC
I THINK IT WAS ALWAYS 10

Didn't they come with 12 at one point?
Image in the first post says 6 pairs of 6.

Hello everyone! I registered to ask this question because Bitmaintech lets me wait more than 40 days for an answer to my support ticket....
This is my question: How many Antminer S7 units can I connect to one unit of this PSU? Physically it seems that you could connect at least 2 pieces of S7 to one PSU. Does this really work or is it unwise (overloading, fire hazard etc...)?
Thanks in advance for your answers!

Bitmain clearly says that ONE APW3-12-1600 PSU for ONE ANTMINER S7. And there is no extra PCI-E connectors.

Yup only one S7 can be powered by a APW3-12-1600 PSU. There just enough connectors and power capacity for a single S7.

I have to ask what is your voltage in your place to mine.
You need 205 voltage or higher to use this psu.
where do you live? as usa is 120 voltage.

do not buy this crap unless you have really good fire insurance.
Did one catch fire recently?

totally uncalled for useless comment. Thanks for contributing to an otherwise decent discussion

Upp like the red line is what you mean right , if i understand you correcct?
At this moment it is at the Purple mark, and i tried 612, and is actually more stable than before and less errors.
Ill wait for your response to disamble again
On the side atm it is running abit colder aswel less 5c on the temps . hmmm

I cannot positively confirm as I do not have one here to check. I would wait until you have a meter and set it properly rather than guessing.

alrite well thanks for your help, ill be picking the meter tomorrow and ill update how it whent.

Ok so i was turning the knob but it dont have a stop, it go all the way around.
*i noticed that the Screw is not totally ciruclar.
Were should i place the " LINE" that is there.
I dont have a meter on me right now, and its to late to pick one up.

I would put it in the middle of it's travel. The "Flat" needs to be aligned with the 2 pins at the ends of the pot as opposed to the single pin opposite them. If in doubt wait until you have a meter to measure the voltage.
