STACK EFFECT COOLING SOLUTION
Stack Effect Cooling Solution
Stack Effect Cooling Solution (SECS) is applied to enhance the passive cooling effect at 0dB(A) ASM-mode:
Stack Effect causes air flow in high buildings. While the warmer indoor air rises up to top of the building, and
escapes through ventilation openings, the reduced pressure in the base of the building draws cold air inside. A
computer case with additional vents at the top has the possibility to benefit from Stack Effect for better cooling.
If your computer case has additional vents at the top, Stack Effect can be enhanced by ASM Xzero even at
0dB(A) ASM-mode. ONLY ASM Xzero has the possibility to be installed upside down in order to enhance Stack
Effect for better cooling.
By turning the power supply unit upside down (fan facing upwards), the created low pressure can draw cold air
from outside to enhance the passive cooling effect up to 42% at 0dB(A) ASM-mode. This leads to even less
fan operation and a prolonged period of absolute silence.
0dB(A)
SECS ASM-Mode
Install ASM Xzero with fan facing upwards, ONLY when your computer case has additional vents at the
top. If you notice unwanted effects, like consistent fan revolutions or overheating, please reinstall
ASM Xzero in the standard way.
