This is a Mid Level Package for Smaller to Mid Sized Systems Installed in Cabinetry

It is important when venting cabinetry that a 2 prong approach is taken which involves venting the cabinet which means exhausting the hot air generated by the components. The second important principle is to eliminate heat pockets in the cabinets which can form in areas between the shelves where the heat from the components accumulates and stays. Even well vented cabinets form heat pockets that can exist due to airflow patterns that do not disrupt the hot pocket of air. This is why it is important to use cooling units like the Component Unit, DUO, and SPOT coolers to disrupt the hot pockets of air and get them to be part of the airflow pattern that then leads to being exhausted by the vent fan. It should also be noted that need to ensure that air can easily pass through shelving and different areas of the cabinetry.

This package features and includes the HiFlo Lite Vent for venting the cabinet and a Component Unit LT to cool a larger component and the DUO unit to be used for spot cooling which simply means placing it on typically the amplifier or receiver. This system can be customized and expanded by simply purchasing additional unit/s and Y or Tri cables.

The package also includes a single power supply and the 3 Fan Advanced LT temperature controller that will turn the fans On and Off and vary the speed of the fans based on temperature.

The overview of this system is you'd install the HiFlo Lite Vent in the upper back of the cabinet to exhaust hot air and do not worry about an intake, sufficient air can come in around the doors and other openings. The Component Unit will then be used to cool your hottest running component which is usually an amplifier. The DUO will then be good either on another component that runs hot or in another shelf area of the cabinet to help dissipate any heat pockets that may form. Ensure that there are sufficient openings for air to move throughout the cabinet and more precisely, so the hot air being generated can rise and be exhausted by the HiFlo Lite.

This system is easily installed with following these instructions and looking at the wiring diagram in the pics.

HiFlo Lite. First determine the best location for the unit which is typically higher in the cabinet and towards the back. One the location is selected, cut a 3 3/4" x 3 3/4" square hole, inserting the unit into the hole, screwing the plate to the cabinet and then installing the desired grill.

Alternate Installation Method. Another option for installation is to drill a 3.5" round hole, mount the fan unit on the inside of the cabinet over the hole and then mount the grill on the outside over the hole.

One tip is may want to plug it into the y-cable prior prior to installing the vent.

Component Unit. This unit is intended to be placed on top of a unit that generates significant heat such as an amplifier, receiver, or control component. This is intended to be powered and controlled through the ALT controller.

DUO Unit. This is intended to simply sit on top of a heat producing component so attach the provided rubber feet and select a position on the desired component.

Temperature Controller. The 3-Fan ALT controller will control 3 sets of fans independently. Typically use the 1st bank fan for the ventilation fan (HiFlo Lite) and run the sensor to the top area of the cabinet and ensure it is not resting directly onto a component as it will not operate properly. The 2nd fan output can be run the Component Unit and the 3rd to the DUO unit.

Power Supply. The power supply is variable voltage and since are using the Basic Controller, the fan speed can be controlled by selecting different voltages. The most common setting is 9V but can use 7V for quieter operation or 12V for more aggressive cooling but at 12V the fans may be audible. If the fans are too loud, turn down one setting.

Wiring. Most wiring uses the 2-pin connector while some components use a 2.1 coax connector which should be provided and needs to be connected to the 2-pin connector end. When plugging wires together, always ensure to align Tip to + or + to +. See the diagram in the pics for different configurations as generally the temperature controller plugs inline between the power supply and fan units.
