6. Орнотуу жана орнотуу

Proper installation is crucial for the performance and safety of your liquid cooling system. It is recommended to consult the detailed installation guide available on the EKWB official website for step-by-step instructions specific to your system configuration.

1. Даярдоо: Ensure all components are present and undamaged. Plan your loop layout, considering inlet and outlet port usage.
2. Монтаждоо: Use the provided mounting clip and mechanism to securely attach the pump-reservoir unit to your chassis. The self-adhesive mounting hole pattern sticker can assist in precise placement.
3. Порт байланыштары: Connect your G1/4" fittings and tubing to the desired ports. The top port with the pre-installed internal tube is ideal for an inlet to minimize splashing.
4. Электр байланыштары: Connect the 4-Pin Molex connector for pump power and the 4-Pin PWM FAN connector to your motherboard or fan controller for speed control. Connect the 3-pin D-RGB connector to a compatible addressable RGB header on your motherboard or controller.
5. Агышуу тести: Before powering on your system, perform a thorough leak test using a dedicated leak tester or by running the pump with only the power connected (without powering other PC components) for at least 24 hours.

7. Иштөө нускамалары

Once installed and leak-tested, the EK-Quantum Kinetic TBE 300 D5 PWM D-RGB is ready for operation.

• Filling the Loop: Fill the reservoir with appropriate liquid cooling fluid. Ensure the reservoir remains adequately filled during the initial filling process to prevent the pump from running dry.
• Bleeding Air: Operate the pump at a low to moderate speed to circulate coolant and remove air bubbles from the loop. Tilt your system gently to help dislodge trapped air. Refill the reservoir as needed.
• PWM башкаруу: The D5 PWM pump allows for speed control via a 4-pin PWM signal from your motherboard or a dedicated fan controller. Adjust pump speed based on your cooling requirements and noise preferences.
• D-RGB Control: The integrated D-RGB lighting can be controlled using compatible motherboard software (e.g., ASUS Aura Sync, MSI Mystic Light Sync, Gigabyte RGB Fusion) or a standalone D-RGB controller connected to the 3-pin header.

8. Техникалык тейлөө

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and efficiency of your liquid cooling system.

• Муздаткычты алмаштыруу: It is recommended to replace the coolant every 6-12 months, depending on the coolant type and system usage, to prevent buildup and maintain optimal performance.
• Системаны тазалоо: When replacing coolant, consider flushing the entire loop with distilled water or a dedicated cleaning solution to remove any accumulated debris or old coolant residue.
• Текшерүү: Periodically inspect tubing, fittings, and the reservoir for any signs of leaks, discoloration, or material degradation.
• Насос тазалоо: If flow issues occur, the pump impeller can be accessed and cleaned. Refer to the EKWB website for specific disassembly instructions for the D5 pump.

9. Кыйынчылыктарды

Бул бөлүм сиз кабылышы мүмкүн болгон жалпы көйгөйлөрдү карайт.

• Насос иштебейт:
  • Verify the 4-Pin Molex power connector is securely connected to the power supply.
  • Электр менен камсыздоонун туура иштеп жатканын текшериңиз.
  • Check the 4-Pin PWM FAN connector for proper connection to the motherboard/controller and that the fan header is enabled in BIOS/UEFI.
• Poor Flow/Low Performance:
  • Check for air bubbles trapped in the loop. Bleed the system thoroughly.
  • Ensure the reservoir is adequately filled with coolant.
  • Inspect for kinks in tubing or obstructions in water blocks/radiators.
  • Verify pump speed settings in your motherboard BIOS or software.
• D-RGB жарыгы иштебей жатат:
  • Confirm the 3-pin D-RGB connector is correctly attached to a 5V addressable RGB header (not a 12V RGB header).
  • Check D-RGB software settings on your motherboard or external controller.
  • Ensure the D-RGB header on your motherboard is enabled in BIOS/UEFI.
• Агышуулар:
  • Immediately shut down the system.
  • Identify the source of the leak. Tighten fittings, replace O-rings, or replace damaged components as necessary.
  • Always perform a leak test after any adjustments or repairs.
