Antminer Z15 Pro vs Z15K 565K: which Zcash miner to quote
Direct answer: Quote the Antminer Z15 Pro when efficiency and hashrate per kilowatt matter most: 840 KSol/s at 2,780 W, about 3.31 J/KSol. Quote the Antminer Z15K 565K when you want a lower-draw unit with the power supply built in, or US stock with no import duties: 565 KSol/s at about 2,500 W. Both mine Zcash (ZEC) on 240 V power, and Mining Man quotes both in CAD or USD.
1. Specs side by side
Figures are manufacturer typical values. Your exact unit and bin are confirmed on your quote.
| Spec | Z15 Pro | Z15K 565K |
|---|---|---|
| Algorithm / coin | Equihash / ZEC, ZEN | Equihash / ZEC, ZEN |
| Hashrate | 840 KSol/s | 565 KSol/s |
| Power at the wall | 2,780 W | about 2,500 W |
| Efficiency | about 3.31 J/KSol | about 4.4 J/KSol |
| Energy per day | about 66.7 kWh | about 60 kWh |
| Input voltage | 200–240 V AC | 220–277 V AC |
| Power supply | Two 10 A inputs | Built into the case |
| Cooling / noise | Air, 75 dBA | Air, about 75 dB |

2. Fleet math on a fixed power budget
Most Zcash fleets are limited by power, not floor space. Here is what 100 kW of miner load buys with each model, using manufacturer figures and before site overhead.
| 100 kW budget | Z15 Pro | Z15K 565K |
|---|---|---|
| Units | about 35 | about 40 |
| Fleet hashrate | about 29.4 MSol/s | about 22.6 MSol/s |
Same power, about 30% more hashrate with the Z15 Pro. Earnings depend on the ZEC price, network solution rate and your kWh rate, so no earnings are promised. Run both models in the profit calculator with your power cost.
3. Who the Z15 Pro fits
- Farms and big buyers where every kilowatt is spoken for and efficiency drives payback.
- Operators with low electricity rates who want maximum hashrate per rack.
- Fleet planners standardizing on one top Equihash model.
4. Who the Z15K 565K fits
- Buyers who want a slightly lower draw per unit (about 2,500 W) on a single 240 V circuit.
- Setups that prefer a built-in power supply with fewer separate parts to wire.
- US buyers: the Z15K is available from USA stock, so there are no import duties. See buying a Z15K 565K in the USA.
5. How to choose in one minute
- Power-limited site? Start with the Z15 Pro for more hashrate per kW.
- Buying in the USA and want no import duties? Start with the Z15K 565K.
- Mixed fleet? Request both on one quote. We reply with one written CAD or USD price plus shipping.

Z15 Pro vs Z15K FAQ
Which is more efficient, the Z15 Pro or the Z15K?
The Antminer Z15 Pro. It is rated at 840 KSol/s for 2,780 W, about 3.31 J/KSol. The Z15K 565K is rated at 565 KSol/s for about 2,500 W, roughly 4.4 J/KSol. Per unit of hashrate, the Z15 Pro uses about 25% less power.
Can both mine Zcash?
Yes. Both are Equihash ASICs for Zcash (ZEC) and also Horizen (ZEN). Neither can mine Bitcoin.
Do they run on 120 V household power?
No. The Z15 Pro needs 200–240 V AC and the Z15K needs 220–277 V AC. Plan a dedicated 240 V circuit for each unit and have a licensed electrician check your setup.
How many of each fit on the same power budget?
On a 100 kW budget, roughly 35 Z15 Pro units (about 29.4 MSol/s) or 40 Z15K units (about 22.6 MSol/s). The Z15 Pro fleet makes about 30% more hashrate from the same power. These are manufacturer figures before PSU, cooling and site overhead.
Are there import duties on the Z15K for US buyers?
No. The Antminer Z15K 565K is available from USA stock, so US buyers pay no import duties.
