AC Infinity, AIRPLATE T3 Home Theater and AV Cabinet Fan

Update: the seller sent a UK/US plug adapter super quickly over bank holiday weekend which arrived Monday. I was worried that it would need a power converter but this was not the case. Plugged it in and immediately started working. Very impressed with the product and the seller. Many thanks. This looks and feels like a great quality product but I can’t power it because there was no Uk power adapter supplied. I do not want to simply use a US to UK adapter due to the power difference and am a concerned I will blow the unit so I am waiting to hear back from the supplier. I will update this review when I hear but until then I have a great looking fan installed that I can’t use!

Congratulations to AC Infinity for producing the beautiful AIRPLATE T3 kit which saved me from buying the components (whether I would have been able to source a thermostatic probe & controller is another question!). All thought has gone into this product - from the aesthetics (the brushed metal facial looks perfect in the living room cabinet I converted) to the function (it keeps the temperature at a steady 31 degrees) to the components (includes templates for accurate hole cutting and both screws and bolts for different materials). Before I installed this extractor fan the BluRay player, the Humax and Panasonic disk recorders, the Roku and the BT YouView box pumped out heat in the enclosed wooden cabinet which required the doors to be left open in the summer. Now I have yet to see the temperature rise above 32 degrees. And an alarm will sound if it does! Terrific kit.

I don't often leave a review but had to for this. The quality is great, it feels sturdy and the brushed aluminium gives a nice finish. It's modular in design for adding more fans. The fan has a male and female adapter so more can be chained in if needed. If you need to cut into a surface to mount either the fan or control unit it comes with templates for marking out the recess and bolt holes. All of the cables have plenty of length if you're going to mount the control unit a distance from the fan. I modified my small rack so I could mount the control unit to the top.

Thought about building my own and using a raspberry pi to control the fans and monitor temperatures. I came across this product and thought this is a no brainer. Absolute quality, very good price when comparing to buying separate components, super quiet fan with loads of room for expansion. I’ve built this into my home network cabinet and boy does it look the part. So impressed I’ve ordered some additional fans. Would definitely recommend. Thank you AC Infinity

Professional from the get-go. Simple to set up, templates provided to correctly cut the right shape to mount, clean lines, just what I needed. My only reservation and its probably not really a fault of the unit as such, is that I don't think its powerful enough to maintain and/or hit the target temperatures (I have a NAS sat on a shelf in a closed cupboard in an attic where the attic temp can easily hit 30 degrees). I'll see how things go but today it was reporting temps in the cupboard of 32 degrees and didn't seem capable of returning it down to the target of 28 degrees (the default value). Maybe I need a push/pull setup?

Great system for price, packaging really nice, quality components. Would be nice if there was a surround for the rear of the fans to hide the cut out and make neat the inside of the cupboard. The controller's ability to change the fan speed based on the temperature is really neat. Can run as many as 6 fans off a single control unit.

Awesome solution for cooling my media cabinet. Its ready to plug and play, no other extra nonsense, and it looks really slick. I use these along with Airplate S7. I t is cooling my PS4 pro and HK AVR16S receiver along with all the cables and it works perfectly.

Don’t normally write purchase reviews, but I am so impressed with this device that I decided to commend it. As a retired electronics engineer with experience of cooling equipment cabinets on a commercial scale, I chose this product to ventilate my domestic cabinet. Am really impressed with the build quality and the functionality of the control panel,- exactly what I needed! Also the fan is really quiet!

Airplate T3 with Adjustable Thermostat. Looks and works great! Adjustable thermostat on single fan works the same as larger T8 and T10 units. Great cooling and fans are quiet. Comes with stencil which is excellent for marking cut out holes. Small screws or long bolts with nuts included for either mounting option. A/C Infinity fans are a little more expensive but I have to say they don't disappoint. I have never been disappointed after I recieve and use their products. Great quality and professional looking. I also have two T8 units, one on Denon reciver and one on Emotiva XPA-5 amp. They have worked flawlessly for sometime now. I just installed two T3 Airplates with thermostats on custom Amp enclosures for Fosi ZA3 amps. I watched all of them closely at first to see what they were doing in smart and auto settings. They work so good sometimes I dont even know thier running. I confidently stop looking after a couple of days of watching them in action. Set it and forget it. Piece of mind with the thermostats and longevity of your expensive equipment is worth the price in the end. Add three inches to mounting depth for the three cables that plug into the back of thermostat. Fan, power, and sensor. Spend a little more you'll be happy you did!

AC Infinity makes some very nice products - I have a 4” fan to cool my home theatre and it has worked well the last few years. We have upgraded our HT system and are now running a Denon receiver that gets quite warm. Unfortunately my wife wanted all the Home theatre stuff hidden in a cabinet so we needed to upgrade the fan. This particular product allows us to keep our existing fan and add a 6” fan with temperature sensor and control unit. With fans noise can be an issue, particularly with higher fan speeds. This unit is whisper quiet, only turns on when needed and adjusts fan speed to the require level for the temperature of the cabinet. Fans can also be ugly but the AC Infinity stuff is absolutely gorgeous - not sure if that is the right term but both the controller and the fan are very well built so that even my wife mentioned how nice the unit looks. In terms of cost, I can say you definitely get your moneys worth.

El termostato funciona excelente y el ventilador es perfecto para sacar el aire caliente del mueble. Se mantiene fresco el receiver, solo que es recomendable poner un ventilador en cada lado para que el aire circule mejor. La instalación es un poco complicada segun sea el material del mueble

Ho acquistato questa centralina con ventola di raffreddamento per smuovere l'aria all'interno di un mobile costruito artigianalmente su cui tengo le mie console da gioco. È meravigliosa. La qualità di costruzione, la cura nei dettagli, la facilità di impostazione e di controllo ed il suo (volendo) totale automatismo ne fanno un prodotto da 10. Compratela. Io, se potessi, darei 10 stelle.

Algo más ruidoso de lo que pensaba pero desde luego perfectamente diseñado, empaquetado y fabricado. Muy útiles sus guías en plástico para marcar el empotrado en la madera. Tras un año y medio de funcionamiento sigue perfecto
