How to clean an Antminer S9 - Start to Finish

- Often times used ASIC miners purchased from large-scale mining operations arrive crusted in dirt, dust and covered in grime. Heat sinks are clogged up and miners don't mine optimally. This is a demo of how I clean and Antminer S9 from inside out. And yes, I test them and not only do they run fine after this process, they hash at much better rates.
This is the best video i have found for cleaning Antminer. Thanks!
That's a very thorough clean. Looks way better after!
You can clean it well enough if you just blow it with a compressor. If you want to go all the way, after blowing it, don't soak in isopropyl because that dilutes thermal paste and affects thermal pads as well, just grab a can of brake cleaner, put the board upright and spray it top to bottom. Don't add jelly to fans, use dashboard cleaner, it puts shine in the fans and keeps them shiny and with less dust for a longer time. Don't remove the sticker to service the fan if there's nothing wrong with it, WD-40 washes away the normal lubricant of the fan hub, a thicker stickier oil is preferable if you're really set on doing that sort of maintenance.
what is a brake cleaner. is it some sort of compressed air. I suppose the miner had dust so shouldn't a compressed air be enough to clean it?
There is no way I would use brake cleaner on any electronics. It is very volatile, carburetor cleaner maybe but not brake cleaner.
Later that day on Ebay. Antminer S9! BARELY USED! Bought it last month, i ran for 15 minutes only! my loss is your gain!
SOLD!
Say no to WD40. Good info, thanks!
I have found a helpful video that demonstrates how to clean those machines, but I'm also interested in learning about the maintenance aspects. Could you please recommend tutorials or resources where I can learn the basics of maintenance for mining equipment such as the Antminer, Avalon miner, or any other mining equipment?
i need you feedback as much as possible please
great jobe and an amazing video 👍
Amazing job. Thanks for share with us. Thanks.
What kind of net is that?
just a fish net? also what kind of pad do you use to scrub the aluminum case?

Menggunakan cairan apa untuk membersihkan hasboard?
Don't soak your hashboards in isopropyl. Even if you dilute it, it's still a terrible idea. Better way to do this is to simply vaccuum off all the loose dust out of the back, blow compressed air between the heatsink grills.
Isopropyl is ok as long as there's no chance for it to puddle up anywhere. You can hold your hashboard up vertically and pour a small amount of isopropyl across all the heatinks allowing it to drain into a bin below. Allow all the alcohol to drip off. Blow air in between the heatsinks with your mouth to make sure none is pooled up. Then immediately set the hashboard in front of a fan. If you want to do detail work, use q-tips and dip them in isopropyl
No
I always had idea to put the whole board into isopropyl but i thought it'd harm it, now i'll do it thank you !
91% or better isopropyl is 100% harmless to electronics so long as you _let it dry_ before powering things back up.
Can we take separately.. hash boards and control board can we mine?
yes you can
вентилятор не разобрал + верхний подшипник оставил без масла :) кто купит такой асик, через неделю "обрадуется" перегреву из-за отказа вентилятора :) сюрприз не плохой и ещё из под чипов пыль вымывается не кисточкой, не полосканием в ванне, а струёй спирта под давлением 1-2 атм, но вам пофиг, чисто косметическая перед продажей асика!
Thank you. Great video!
Thank you
I have a question, what if I want to use an s9 with 2 cards, that is, take 1 out of it and work with 2, and I heard that some asic models allow it but others do not
S9 allow it

وش اسم الماده الي ينظف فيها البوردات
Might better results be achieved using an ultrasonic cleaner or is this good enough?
yes could be better if you have it
Hey, watch this th-cam.com/video/k3tLVxetXzg/w-d-xo.html
Isopropyl alcohol might loose paste of heat diffusers right????? This method is risky
If you notice in the video some text was added saying to dilute 1/3 water..
@@MattySlimz I’ll try it this way then maybe is less corrosive to heat paste. Thanks for pointing this out.
you can use it, it's safe
hello, I liked your video. Can you make a video about l3+ cleaning?
Hey, go to my channel. I have a video cleaning an L3+
请问这是什么液体?
do you sell any
are you looking for an investor
hey can the tap water be used?
lol.. i mean u can use it, but the electronics might be ruined afterwards
Hey, watch this th-cam.com/video/k3tLVxetXzg/w-d-xo.html
what this liquid? and can i use wd 40 for electronics. will be safe?
yep
Use electrosolve
No, do NOT use WD. Use what was shown in the video, isopropyl alcohol 90% or better. Costco has them in 1 gallon jugs similar to what’s in the video….
it's water
now we can sell this and priced it as new
So, hatte schon bestellt, aber nach genauer Betrachtung und Berechnung des Ertrages muss ich einfach sagen das Eure Cashflow Angaben komplett daneben liegen, der Ertrag Eurer Angaben beträgt z.Z. nur ein drittel
It’s possible with 37,5 % Vodka too? 😅
how long did it take?
clean 2 hours, dry two days
and works?
What are you using to shine/buff up the miner cases?
ต้องตากนานแค่ไหนครับ
for a quick clean just disassemble and use canned air to dust that shiiiiiiii

That really concerns me to see a miner in that condition. A serious fire risk and just pure disrespect towards the individual that worked hard to buy it and then trust a company to care for it. 😮
