STEP 3
Please check again if you have plugged in the EK-ATX
Bridging Plug and EK-Cable Pump Testing Adapter
correctly. Refer to Page 28, chapter RECOMMENDED
FILLING AND LEAK TESTING PROCEDURE.
Turn the power supply on briefly and make sure that only the pump
is running.
STEP 4
When you turn on the power supply, the coolant should be pushed
from the reservoir to other water cooling components, therefore you
have to fill the coolant continuously while the pump is running.
Alternatively, you can cycle (turn on and off) the power supply
in a few second intervals to speed up the air bleeding process.
When the coolant level becomes steady, fill the reservoir so that the
coolant level is about 2 centimeters below the edge. Screw back the
reservoir top in the clockwise direction.
STEP 5
Shake and tilt the PC chassis to remove any air possibly trapped in
the radiator. You may need to add more coolant.
STEP 6
24 HOUR LEAK TEST
It is best practice to run your pump for at least 24 hours in
order to ensure the system is leak free. Once the 24 hour
leak test has been completed and there is no sign of a
leaking fluid, you are free to finish your computer build.
You will not be needing the ATX Bridging Plug cable anymore.
Connect all the necessary cables to the motherboard, graphics card
and expansion drives.
