EK-Classic Pump Reservoir 160/260 SPC PWM D-RGB series combo
units feature two (2) G1/4 threaded openings on the main body - the
INLET and OUTLET, with the first marked ‘IN’ and the latter marked
‘OUT.’ EK recommends using EK-ACF fittings with the EK-XRES SPC
series reservoir-pump combo units. If you go for barbed fittings, please
use hose clamps or an appropriate substitute to secure the tubing.
It is mandatory to use the correct INLET and OUTLET ports!
1. The OUTLET (pressure) port has ‘OUT’ engraved on the pump-
top housing.
2. The INLET (suction) ports are marked ‘IN’ on the EK-XRES SPC
front face plane.
3. Make sure not to use fittings or barbs longer than 6mm with G1/4
threads! All EK fittings are compatible. We advise you to use the
appropriate Allen key for installation.
This water pump and EK-XRES SPC reservoir combo can be used
in vertical mounting configuration (position) only! Mounting
the pump upside-down may result in the pump running dry and
eventually lead to its premature failure!
