Installation and mounting manual for
EK-UNI Holder DDC ADD-ON
This product is intended for installation only by expert users. Please consult with a qualified technician for installation. Improper installation may result in damage to your equipment. EK Water Blocks assumes no liability
whatsoever, expressed or implied, for the use of these products, nor their installation. The following instructions are subject to change without notice. Please visit our web site at
installation of this product please read important notice, disclosure and warranty conditions printed on the back of the box.
Before you start using this product please follow these basic guidelines:
1.
Please carefully read the manual before through before beginning with the installation process!
2.
The EK High Flow and EK-PSC type fittings require only a small amount of force to screw them firmly in place since the liquid seal is ensured by the rubber o-ring gaskets.
3.
The use of corrosion inhibiting coolants is strongly recommended for any liquid cooling system.
STEP 1: PREPARING THE PUMP
STEP 2: INSTALLING THE X-RES
Unscrew the four screws that attaches the Laing pump’s original
factory top and the main pump core housing with motor. Store
these four screws as well as factory pump top in a safe place.
Remember to keep the original o-ring gasket!
1.
Install the EK-DDC X-RES CSQ on to the pump main
motor housing.
Make sure you re-use the original
o-ring gasket!
Reseat the gasket if needed.
You can rotate the DDC X-RES CSQ in and use it in any
direction (90° step turns).
2.
Secure the DDC X-RES CSQ using enclosed M4x30
DIN7985
screws with the Allen (hex) key. Do not over
tighten the screws as excessive force may strip the
threading.
STEP 3: ATTACHING DDC ADD ON TO EK-UNI HOLDER D5
STEP 4: ATTACHING FITTINGS
EK-DDC X-RES CSQ series reservoir pump combo features 3 (three) G1/4 threaded
opening on the main body of which 2 (two) are inlets and one is outlet (clearly marked
with ‘OUT’). EKWB recommends using EK-PSC fittings with the EK-DDC X-RES CSQ
series reservoir pump combo units. To ensure that the tubes are securely attached to
the barb/fittings, please use hose clamps or an appropriate substitute.
It is mandatory to use the correct INLET and OUTLET ports:
1.
The OUTLET port (pressure port) is clearly marked with label ‘OUT’ engraved
on the pump top housing.
2.
The INLET port(s) (suction port) are the two recessed ports with G1/4
threading on the EK-DDC X-TOP front face plane. You may use any of these
two ports as an INLET port. It is necessary to use the enclosed EK-Extender
G1/4 underneath the INLET fitting! Please refer to the picture on the right!
Do
not forget to close off
the unused INLET port using EK-Plug G1/4!
3.
Make sure not to use fittings or barbs with G1/4 thread longer than 5mm! All
EK-PSC
and
High Flow
fittings are compatible!
This water pump & EK-DDC TOP combo can be used in vertical mounting configuration
(position) only!
Mounting the pump upside down may result in pump running dry and
eventually lead to premature failure of the pump!
IMPORTANT DISCLOSURES:
VERY IMPORTANT NOTICE: Once the installation is completed, it is a recommended practice to test the cooling circuit for leaks prior to powering up the computer. We
recommend a 24 hour leak test prior to powering up the computer. Do not test the water block using tap water pressure. This will rupture the top of the housing and render the
block unusable (and will void your warranty).While all efforts have been made to provide the most comprehensive tutorial possible, EK Water Blocks assumes no liability
expressed or implied for any consequential damage(s) occurring to your equipment as a result of using EK Water Blocks cooling products, either due to errors or omissions on
