02 / The container
Capacity, compatibility and the details that matter when planning your installation.
The Bitmain ANTSPACE MD5 immersion mining container is designed for compatible ANTMINER immersion equipment. Its 40ft container accommodates up to 160 S21 Imm. or S21 XP Imm. units, giving a commercial mining project a defined platform around which to plan the fleet and supporting services.
The MD5 system pairs an immersion container with a dry cooling tower. BITMAIN describes two modules that operate independently, together with Smart PDU and monitoring software. Confirm compatibility for the exact machines you intend to install, including their electrical and immersion fluid requirements.
The manufacturer lists 1,000kW operating power for the container and 100kW operating power for the dry tower separately. The 1MW headline is therefore not a complete site power figure. Installation planning needs to account for the cooling equipment, electrical infrastructure, fluid, foundations and lifting access.
The Mining Shop offers the ANTSPACE MD5 on preorder with a quoted lead time of 60 days. Contact us to confirm when that period begins, the expected dispatch schedule and the complete equipment list for your project.
03 / Power and cooling
Distribution cabinets, PDU functions and the supporting equipment for ANTSPACE MD5.
BITMAIN describes smart PDUs and monitoring software for the MD5. The December 2024 manual documents tank power, phase voltage and current readings, miner outlet status and grouped start and stop controls. Confirm the installed firmware and control options on the supplied revision.
The manual lists supply and return temperatures, liquid pressure, liquid level status and alarm history. Its PDU components include breakers, contactors, meters and surge protection. These features support supervision; they do not remove the need for a site electrical design.
Use a dielectric liquid approved for both the miners and the system. The cooling liquid is part of the equipment design, not interchangeable with a hydro water circuit. Allow for fluid handling, spill management, inspection of sensors and PDU ventilation, and access around the tanks.
The 2024 manual and current shop sheet differ on some current and PUE figures. The table uses the current shop values; detailed PDU functions are identified from the manual and need checking against the delivered controls. Request the single line diagram, breaker schedule, PDU outlet model, cable list, cooling schematic and commissioning requirements for the unit supplied.
04 / Heat reuse
Potential applications for an engineered recovery system. Heating equipment is not included in the container price unless expressly quoted.
The MD5 concentrates miner heat in dielectric liquid. Reuse would require a compatible oil to secondary fluid heat exchanger and a separately controlled heating circuit. Its standard dry tower specification is not evidence that a heat recovery package is included. Keep the immersion liquid isolated from building or pool water.
Nearby buildings or a heat network may accept recovered heat directly at suitable temperatures, or through a heat pump. MARA reports operating district heating projects in Finland; these demonstrate the application, not certification of this ANTSPACE model.
Read the district heating example ↗A greenhouse with a suitable heating circuit is a potential heat user. GDA has researched the use of mining heat for greenhouse farming in Sweden. A project needs a seasonal heat demand calculation rather than a fixed area per container claim.
Read the greenhouse project ↗As a project concept, recovered heat could preheat pool or process water through an isolated secondary circuit. The usable temperature, exchanger materials, water treatment and backup heating must be designed for that application.
Confirm miner supply and return temperature limits, flow, pressure loss, fluid compatibility, heat exchanger duty, the receiving system temperature and year round demand. Add bypass controls and retain sufficient cooling for summer or loss of heat demand. A heat pump may be needed for a higher delivery temperature. The cooling rating is not guaranteed recoverable heat, and no heat sales or heating savings are included in the earnings below.
BITMAIN offers waste heat heating design services. Obtain approval for the exact container revision before modifying its circuit.
05 / Plan your installation
Share your miner list and site details with our team before confirming the container configuration.
Confirm voltage, distribution and total site demand. Include the miners, cooling equipment and other electrical loads.
Check ambient conditions, the cooling circuit and any water or immersion fluid requirements for your chosen equipment.
Plan vehicle access, unloading, foundations and service clearances. Agree the delivery scope before arranging installation.
Use miners and power supplies approved for the chosen immersion fluid and operating conditions. Removing fans from an air miner does not establish fluid compatibility or preserve its warranty.
Establish the combined electrical load of the selected fleet and validate heat rejection at the hottest design temperature. The container power headline and cooler duty describe different limits.
Before you order
Confirm the supplied equipment list in your quotation. Do not assume ASIC miners, accessories or installation are included in the container price.
Compatibility depends on the exact miner model, cooling method, electrical connections and configuration. Send us your proposed miner list for checking.
Ask for the current allocation and expected dispatch window. The quoted lead time and delivery arrangements will be confirmed for your order.
06 / Compatible fleet examples
Compare suitable ANTMINER families using current catalogue base values. Each card represents an alternative fleet of one model, not three fleets to combine.
These examples use the supported S21 Immersion family. Confirm the exact miner revision, approved dielectric fluid and tank allocation before ordering.

Planning quantity = the lower of the supported slot count and the whole number of miners within the chosen power budget, allowing 5% above each miner's catalogue wattage. This page uses 900kW for ANTSPACE MD5. HD5 reserves 100kW from its 1512kW normal figure; HW5 uses the older 1062kW limit until its revision is confirmed; HW7 reserves 100kW below its 2000kW cooling rating; MD5 reserves 100kW within its 1000kW container figure. These are conservative screening assumptions, not commissioned or manufacturer approved fleet sizes.
Fleet price = current unit price × quantity. Fleet gross monthly earnings = the same per miner base earnings field used by the homepage card × quantity. Hashrate and miner power also scale with quantity; efficiency and earnings per kWh remain per unit ratios. A combined hardware total is shown only where a container price is available; otherwise the container is quoted separately. No bulk discount, electrical infrastructure, delivery adjustment, cooling electricity, downtime or heat income is assumed.
Gross earnings are estimates before electricity and operating costs. Final quantities also depend on ambient temperature, coolant flow, distribution across cabinets, PSU connectors and the approved rack layout. Check stock allocation and the complete quote before ordering. This section shows compatibility examples and does not claim a purchase history.
