Re: "ICE" Cube Cooler Kit

Hello Teams!

Matt Crossman here from ebm-papst Inc. in Farmington, CT. Your assumptions are correct, the "ICE" Cube is for cooling the RS-5XX and RS-7XX Motors.

Though it may not be necessary, as an alumnus of FIRST I have first hand experience with these motors burning out when run at too high a speed for extended periods of time, or when run in a confined space.

Instructions for using the "ICE" Cube can be found here.

As of now the only way to acquire extra "ICE" Cubes is to contact ebm-papst Inc.

Best of luck teams! Stay Cool!
