2. Setup and Installation
The AIRCOM S6 is designed for easy integration into your AV setup. It features a rear-exhaust design, making it ideal for cabinets or racks where heat needs to be expelled from the back.
Placement:
- Place the AIRCOM S6 directly on top of the AV component you wish to cool. Ensure the component's top surface is clear for optimal airflow.
- For best results, ensure there is adequate space behind the unit for the rear exhaust to dissipate heat effectively.
- The low-profile design allows other components to be stacked on top of the AIRCOM S6 if needed, provided proper ventilation is maintained.

Control Modes:
- Thermal Trigger Modes: The system can be set to automatically activate based on detected temperature, ensuring cooling only when necessary.
- Speed Control: Choose from four fan speeds, ranging from silent to powerful, to balance cooling performance with noise levels. The dual-ball bearing blowers with PWM-controlled motors are designed to minimize operational noise.
- Power Outage Memory: The unit retains its last settings in case of a power interruption.
4. Maintenance
To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your AC Infinity AIRCOM S6, follow these simple maintenance guidelines:
- Cleaning: Periodically clean the fan grilles and surfaces with a soft, dry cloth to prevent dust buildup, which can impede airflow and reduce cooling efficiency.
- Ventilation: Ensure that the rear exhaust area remains unobstructed to allow for proper heat dissipation.
- Inspection: Regularly check the power cable for any signs of damage.
5. Troubleshooting
If you encounter any issues with your AIRCOM S6, consider the following common troubleshooting steps:
- Unit Not Turning On: Verify that the power adapter is securely plugged into both the unit and a working electrical outlet.
- Insufficient Cooling: Check for any obstructions around the fan grilles or the rear exhaust. Ensure the unit is placed directly on the component requiring cooling.
- Unusual Noise: Ensure the unit is placed on a stable, flat surface. Check for any foreign objects that might have entered the fan area.
- Temperature Readings Inaccurate: Ensure the thermal probe (if applicable to your model) is correctly positioned to measure the component's temperature.
If problems persist after attempting these steps, please refer to the support section for further assistance.
