Blackmagic Design Spares - ATEM Constellation 8K - FanThe Blackmagic Design Spares ATEM Constellation 8K Fan refers to the high performance cooling units located within the 2RU chassis. Given the immense heat generated by 8K processing and 40 channels of 12G SDI, the Constellation 8K utilizes a sophisticated thermal management system consisting of a primary fan bank and dedicated power supply fans.

The Blackmagic Design Spares - ATEM Constellation 8K - Fan refers to the high-performance cooling units located within the 2RU chassis. Given the immense heat generated by 8K processing and 40 channels of 12G-SDI, the Constellation 8K utilizes a sophisticated thermal management system consisting of a primary fan bank and dedicated power supply fans.

Maintaining these fans is critical; if the central FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array) overheats, the unit will "thermal throttle," leading to dropped frames or a total system shutdown to prevent permanent hardware damage.


Fan Configuration

The Constellation 8K typically utilizes two types of fans:

  • Main Chassis Fans: Usually a bank of 3 or 4 high-CFM (Cubic Feet per Minute) blowers located in the center or rear of the unit. These pull cool air across the Mezzanine and Main PCBs.

  • PSU Internal Fans: Each 400W Power Supply module contains its own dedicated small-form-factor fan to prevent the voltage regulators from overheating.


When to Replace a Fan

  • "Fan Failure" Warning: The front panel LCD or the ATEM Software Control displays a critical alert indicating a specific fan has stopped spinning.

  • High-Pitched Whining (Bearing Failure): If the unit sounds like a "jet engine" or emits a grinding noise, the ball bearings inside the fan have dried out or failed.

  • Intermittent Thermal Reboots: The switcher works for 20 minutes, then suddenly shuts down or glitches. This is often caused by a fan that spins up but fails to reach the required RPM under load.

  • Excessive Dust Accumulation: If a fan has been operated in a dusty environment, the blades can become heavy or the motor can burn out from the added resistance.


Technical Installation Note

Repair Level: 2 (Moderate).

  1. Safety First: Unplug both AC power cords. Even when "off," the redundant power system maintains standby voltages that can be hazardous.

  2. The Cooling Shroud: In the Constellation 8K, the fans are often housed under a plastic or metal "shroud" that directs airflow. You must carefully remove this shroud to access the fan headers on the Main PCB.

  3. Pin Polarities: These are typically 3-pin or 4-pin PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) fans. Ensure the connector is notched correctly; forcing it on backward can damage the fan controller on the motherboard.

  4. Airflow Direction: Fans have a small arrow on the plastic casing indicating the direction of airflow. Crucial: Ensure the replacement fan is blowing in the same direction as the original (typically exhausting hot air out the side or rear).


Diagnostic: Dust vs. Failure

Before ordering a replacement, try these steps:

  • Compressed Air: Power down the unit and use a can of compressed air to blow out the vents. If a fan was simply "stuck" due to a dust bunny, this might fix it.

  • The "Spin Test": With the unit open and power off, flick the fan blades with a plastic tool. If it stops immediately (rather than spinning freely), the motor is seized and needs replacement.


Pro-Tip: The "Machine Room" Effect

The Constellation 8K fans are designed to be audible because of the cooling required for 8K video. If you find the fans are constantly at 100% (max volume), check the ambient temperature of your rack. If the rack is above 30°C (86°F), the fans will never slow down. Improving your rack's overall ventilation can extend the lifespan of these fans by years.

Is your switcher reporting a specific fan number failure on the front screen, or are you just hearing an unusual noise from the chassis?

Life saver for your skin
Set name: KOJIC
I was skeptical before buying this. my skin dries out so quickly and lotions is just a temporary fix for dry skin. I was amazed that the first time I used it all the dry skin was peeling off such a simple solution. I’ll never be without it now you have to try it to believe it.

Good product
Set name: KOJIC
I have used 1/2 bottle since December. Easy to use on dry skin, I use it before showering. I Probably don’t use it enough, simply because I forget. I have had dry peeling skin on my forehead recently and thought, oh I should use it there. I have to say, it made a big difference. One use and the dry skin came off and my forehead looks much better. I was having a hard time with makeup looking splotchy and now it goes on smooth.

Makes the skin smooth and soft
Set name: KOJIC
The product is wonderful. The first time I used it, it took off alot of the dead skin on my feet. Better than the "egg" or pumas stone. And bonus my hands are rough to and while rubbing on feet it rubbed off my hands as well and the hands are smoother too. NICE. Has a vick's vapor rub smell to it. Not overly strong. Im looking forward to having my feet smooth for the first time, ever!!! The only thing is the bottle it comes in. I could not get the sprayer to work. The off button worked beautifully but the on button did not work. When on it pumped but nothing came out. I even had my family and friends try to get it to work, but to no avail. So I put it in another spray bottle which worked and it was fine. Love the product!

Works great,smells like Noxema
Set name: KOJIC
This is a great exfoliater. I use it once a week from face to toes. The smell reminds me of Noxema wich I'm not fond of but it's dose rinse off well. Works on both wet and dry skin wich I like better than a different brand which only works on dry skin.

No change in hyperpigmentation
Set name: KOJIC
I've suffered with hyperpigmentation on my armpits and have been using this for about a month now. I don't see a difference as far as the hyperpigmentation. I use it every other day before I shower but I will give three stars since it does smell great and leaves my armpits feeling soft after each use.
