Raspberry Pi 5 Case with Active Cooler – Red/White ABS Enclosure

Raspberry Pi 5 ABS Enclosure with Active Cooling Kit – Red/White Case with PWM Fan

Product Description

The Raspberry Pi 5 ABS Enclosure and Active Cooling Kit is a protective and thermal-management solution designed specifically for the Raspberry Pi 5. It combines a durable ABS enclosure with an active cooling system to help protect the board while maintaining suitable operating temperatures during demanding workloads.

The kit includes an active cooler with an aluminum heatsink, thermal pad, and PWM-controlled fan. The fan can operate at speeds of up to 8000 RPM, providing active airflow to help dissipate heat generated by the Raspberry Pi 5 processor during intensive applications.

The PWM-controlled fan can adjust its speed according to system temperature, allowing quieter operation during lighter workloads and increased cooling when the processor is under heavier load. The cooling system provides airflow of up to approximately 2.79 CFM.

The enclosure features a red-and-white ABS design with a clip-together, tool-less assembly. Its removable lid provides convenient access to the GPIO header and internal components while maintaining protection for the Raspberry Pi 5.

Precise openings are provided for the Raspberry Pi 5’s major ports, including USB, Ethernet, USB Type-C, MicroSD, and dual HDMI, allowing the board to remain connected to external peripherals without removing it from the case.

Design and Construction

The enclosure is manufactured from durable ABS plastic and is designed to protect the Raspberry Pi 5 while providing access to the board’s essential connections.

The case uses a clip-together construction, allowing installation without tools. The removable lid makes it easier to access GPIO connections, the cooling assembly, and other internal components.

The ventilation and active cooling design is intended to help manage heat generated by the Raspberry Pi 5 during intensive computing tasks.

The included silicone feet help reduce movement and provide additional stability when the enclosure is placed on a desk or other smooth surface.

Active Cooling System

The active cooler combines an aluminum heatsink and PWM-controlled fan to improve thermal management.

The aluminum heatsink transfers heat away from the processor, while the fan provides forced airflow across the cooling assembly.

The PWM-controlled fan can vary its speed according to system requirements. Lower loads can result in quieter operation, while higher workloads can trigger increased fan speed for greater cooling performance.

The fan provides airflow of up to approximately 2.79 CFM and can operate at speeds of up to approximately 8000 RPM.

Working Principle

The Raspberry Pi 5 is installed inside the ABS enclosure with the active cooling assembly positioned over the appropriate processor area.

The aluminum heatsink uses the supplied thermal pad to establish thermal contact with the processor. Heat generated by the processor is transferred into the heatsink, where the fan helps remove it through airflow.

The PWM fan connection allows the Raspberry Pi 5 to control fan operation according to supported temperature-management functions.

The case provides openings around the board’s ports so peripherals can remain connected while the Raspberry Pi 5 is enclosed.

Port Access

The enclosure provides openings for major Raspberry Pi 5 connections, including:

• USB ports
• Ethernet port
• USB Type-C power connection
• Dual HDMI connections
• MicroSD card access
• GPIO header

This allows the Raspberry Pi 5 to remain installed inside the case during normal use without blocking essential connectivity.

Product Disclaimer

Product images are shown for illustrative and representational purposes only. The actual enclosure may vary slightly in colour, dimensions, port cutout design, fan appearance, labeling, or other details depending on the manufacturing batch.

The Raspberry Pi 5 board is not included. This product is an accessory enclosure and cooling kit only.

The cooling performance depends on ambient temperature, processor workload, airflow around the enclosure, software fan control, thermal-pad installation, and operating conditions.

Important Notes

Board Requirement

This kit is designed for the Raspberry Pi 5 and does not include the Raspberry Pi 5 board.

Thermal Pad Installation

Ensure the supplied thermal pad is clean and free from dust before installation. Position it correctly between the heatsink and processor before pressing the cooling assembly into place.

Fan Connection

Connect the fan cable to the dedicated 4-pin fan header on the Raspberry Pi 5 as specified for the cooling assembly.

Airflow

Avoid blocking the enclosure’s ventilation openings. Adequate surrounding airflow helps the active cooling system operate effectively.

Raspberry Pi 5 Compatibility

Verify the exact enclosure revision and Raspberry Pi 5 board configuration before installation, particularly when using additional HATs, accessories, or large GPIO-connected components.
