STEP 4: INSERTING THE RESERVOIR TO YOUR COMPUTER CHASSIS
This reservoir occupies two (2) 5.25" drive bay expansion slots in your computer chassis. Free two slots in case they are already occupied with other
computer components such as optical- or hard disk drives. Place the reservoir in your 5.25" drive bay, with the front plate facing outwards.
After
completing
STEP 6
in this manual, secure the reservoir to the drive bay cage using the enclosed eight (8) M3x4 DIN 7985 screws with Philips
head screwdriver.
STEP 5: CONNECTING YOUR RESERVOIR
It is mandatory to use the correct INLET and OUTLET port.
Please use the appropriate G1/4 threaded ports as shown on the picture below. EK
recommends using EK-CSQ compression fittings for best water cooling experience.
STEP 6: FILLING THE RESERVOIR
Fill the reservoir through G3/8 threaded fill port (marked
with arrow) and make sure liquid is not spilled over your
computer or any electrical devices nearby. Run your
pump shortly for few seconds’ couple of times to make
sure water floods your tubes and other water cooling
components before permanently leaving the pump on.
Pay attention to the water level in your reservoir. Lowest
and highest recommendable water levels are indicated
on the reservoir's front panel (MIN, MAX). Once done
with the filling process please close your EK-DBAY D5
reservoir with G3/8 plug and tighten the seal using
enclosed Allen key (6mm). Now secure the bay reservoir
with M3x4 DIN 7985 screws mentioned in
step 4
.
STEP 7: OTHER INSTRUCTIONS
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 our part in the above instructions, or due to failure or defect in the EK Water Blocks cooling products.
