The Bitmain Antminer Z15 (420 kSol/s) is a air-cooled Equihash Zcash ASIC miner from Bitmain released in May 2020. It runs at 420 kSol/s while drawing 1,510 W, an efficiency of 3.6 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.

The Antminer Z15 is outdated. Newer models make Zcash far more cheaply.
The Antminer Z15 produces 420 kSol/s of Equihash hashrate and consumes 1,510 W, giving an efficiency of 3.6 J/kSol.
The Antminer Z15 measures about n/a and weighs around 9 kg.
The Antminer Z15 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 Antminer Z15 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.
Bitmain announced the Antminer Z15 in May 2020.
