The Innosilicon A9++ ZMaster (140 kSol/s) is a air-cooled Equihash Zcash ASIC miner from Innosilicon released in May 2019. It runs at 140 kSol/s while drawing 1,550 W, an efficiency of 11 J/kSol. It is more than five years old and no longer competitive; the figures below are kept for reference.
As of Nov 5, 2026, hosted in Nigeria at 4.5¢/kWh with 73.6% uptime. Zcash $1,274.
| Period | Zcash mined | Revenue | Electricity | Profit |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Daily | 0.005194 ZEC | $6.62 | $1.29 | $5.32 |
| Weekly | 0.036355 ZEC | $46.31 | $9.06 | $37.25 |
| Monthly | 0.157988 ZEC | $201.23 | $39.35 | $161.88 |
| Yearly | 1.90 ZEC | $2,414.51 | $472.19 | $1,942.32 |
Electricity per Zcash mined: $249. Mining output depends on Zcash's price, network difficulty and uptime, and is not guaranteed. Nothing here is investment advice.

The A9++ ZMaster is outdated. Newer models make Zcash far more cheaply.
The A9++ ZMaster produces 140 kSol/s of Equihash hashrate and consumes 1,550 W, giving an efficiency of 11 J/kSol.
The A9++ ZMaster measures about n/a and weighs around 11 kg.
The A9++ ZMaster is air-cooled with fans. In the UAE we run air-cooled machines in immersion tanks instead, which keeps them cool in desert heat.
We can host the A9++ ZMaster in UAE (6.5¢/kWh, 99.3% uptime, immersion), Nigeria (4.5¢/kWh, 73.6% uptime) and Argentina (6.5¢/kWh, 98.7% uptime). The Zcash it mines goes straight to your own wallet.
Innosilicon announced the A9++ ZMaster in May 2019.
