Pump & Reservoir overview
Compression Fing & Tube overview
Compression fings are an ideal fing for watercooling, they are 100% leak free when installed correctly. Follow the details below
for guidance on how to correctly install your fings and tube to the components within this watercooling system.
Failure to install them correctly may result in coolant leaks, which may lead to damaged hardware..
When installing your compression fings into your CPU Block, Pump/Reservoir Radiator or Flow Meter you do not need to use
excessive force. These fings are fied with an O-ring on the thread and will seal the fing correctly without need for any
addional items such as PTFE Tape or Thread lock. Screw each fing in all the way with your fingers, ll the O-ring starts to
ghten up the fing, then turn a further quarter turn unl the fing is hand ght. This is all you need.
NOTE: Using spanners, pliers, grips or other tools to install your compression fings is not needed and will damage the threads on
your watercooling parts.

INLET 1
FLOW
OUTLET
Your Pump & Reservoir will have 3 main threads
which you can insert fings into. At this stage,
take a moment to think about where you will
install the pump inside your case, you can then
work out which of the two INLET ports to use.
If you decide to use INLET 1 as your return back
t
to the pump, then you will need to install the
Blank fing which is included with your kit to
seal INLET 2, but don’t seal it just yet. We’ll be
using the other INLET as a way to fill the reservoir.
Blank it when filling is complete.
The FLOW OUTLET is the fing which the liquid
will pump from at speed. This is usually sent
st
straight to the heat source or radiator first, please
refer to the secon on Tube Roung within this
manual for further details.
The pump is powered by a 4Pin Molex plug, and
will fit into any standard PSU 4Pin power plug
inside your PC case. It’s always best to run the
pump on its own feed from the PSU but if that
is
isn’t possible, it will be fine.
When filling the system, fill the reservoir 3/4 of
the way full, and switch the PSU on, the pump
will acvate and push the liquid into the loop.
Be sure to switch off when the reservoir is empty
so you can fill it up again. Repeat this process unl
the system is full.
N
Note: Do Not allow the pump to run dry at all, it
will cause damage to the pump impeller inside.
Compression
Body
Once your fings are installed finger ght into your parts, you can start to install the hose. Unscrew all the Compression Collars
and keep them safe, you’ll need these later during the temporary installaon of the parts in your case, prior to leak tesng.
Fig 1: Cut your tubing to the desired length using a sharp knife, scissors or preferably a tube cuer, try and cut as straight as
possible. Push your tubing onto the barb of the Compression Body unl fully down all the way.
Fig 2: Slide a Compression Collar over the tube with the thread poinng down towards the thread on the Compression Body.
Fig 3: Screw the Compression Collar all the way down, finger ght. There is no need for tools here during this process.
Once those three steps are complete, you can now duplicate this over the rest of the fings during the installaon process.
