THE LUMEN S36 & S36 RGB

 

 

 

 

 

Once again both the S36 and S36 RGB are identical, both use 392x120x27mm radiators (with the pump placed between their fins), 400mm long nylon braided tubes and ARGB waterblocks with copper coldplates.

 

 

Both radiators seem to be just over 27mm in thickness.

 

 

Rubber sealed fill ports are located at the rear end of each radiator.

 

 

Between these two metal plates (top/bottom) Fractal Design has placed a high-RPM (4000RPM) ceramic pump that has an MTTF (meantime to failure) of 50.000 hours.

 

 

The aluminum radiators used have an FPI count (fins per inch) of 20.

 

 

400mm long nylon braided tubes with 360mm AIO models is certainly not something new.

 

 

The top of the waterblock is made out of plastic and even though it's dark gray in color it actually lights up with RGB lighting.

 

 

Just by pulling the cover upwards you can reveal the 6 ARGB LEDs inside (removing it allows you to place the company logo properly after mounting).

 

 

Both tubes can rotate up to 90 degrees from the waterblock to further simplify installation.

 

 

Fractal Design has placed a thin round layer of thermal conductive material on the copper base of each Lumen AIO.

 

 

Both AIO models use Aspect 12 PWM fans (RGB for the S36 RGB) which can reach speeds up to 2000RPM to produce airflow levels of up to 56CFM with up to 2.34mm H2O static pressure and 33.2dBA of noise.

 

 

With these fans mounted on their radiators both the Lumen S36 and S36 RGB are now almost 52mm thick.
