Product Usage Instructions

Preparing the Pump Reservoir Manifold Unit:

1. Step 1: Install the provided EK UNI Pump Bracket Vertical with provided 4x M4 x 8 DIN7984 screws in the desired orientation.
   • For this step you will need: Allen Key 2 mm, Screw M4 x 8 DIN7984 (4 pcs), Metal UNI Pump Bracket (120mm Fan) – V.
2. Step 2: EKWB recommends that the unit be mounted to the front radiator, for example, P360. Either the ports or the coolant level window is facing the user.

Recommended Pump Reservoir Manifold Configurations

• EKWB recommends specific configurations for optimal performance and usability. Please refer to the manual for detailed instructions on different recommended setups.

Connecting the Pump

• Ensure proper connection of the pump to the system according to the provided guidelines. Use the appropriate fittings and connectors as required.

Testing the Loop

• After completing the installation, it is crucial to test the loop to check for any leaks or issues. Follow the testing procedure outlined in the manual before regular usage.

FAQ

Q: What type of coolants are recommended for this product?

A: The use of corrosion-inhibiting coolants is recommended. EKWB suggests using any of the EKCryofuel for worry-free usage.

• Before you start using this product please follow these basic guidelines:
• Please carefully read the manual before beginning with the installation process!
• The EK 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.
• The use of corrosion-inhibiting coolants is always recommended for any liquid cooling system. EKWB recommends any of the EKCryofuel for worry-free usage.

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS AND PRODUCT PARTS

Technical Specification:

• Dimensions (W x D x H) : 115 x 75 x 253 mm
• Dimensions with the attached bracket: 120 x 75 x 253 mm
• Reservoir volume: 240 ml

PREPARING THE PUMP RESERVOIR MANIFOLD UNIT

1. STEP 1
   • Install the provided EK UNI Pump Bracket Vertical with provided 4x M4 x 8 DIN7984 screws in the desired orientation.
   • For this step you will need:
   • STEP 1a
   • The bracket can be mounted in multiple orientations to best fit user needs. X6 manifold also offers two different mounting points per height. Four possible orientations of the pump bracket are shown left:
2. STEP 2
   • EKWB recommends that the unit be mounted to the front radiator, for example, P360. Either the ports or the coolant level window is facing the user.
   • STEP 2a
   • The mounting of the unit depends on the radiator configuration [push/pull / push-pull].
   • If you use a fan between the radiator and combo unit, you need to use M4 x 30 DIN7985 Philips screws that come with a radiator.
   • If you would like to mount the combo unit directly to the radiator, you need to use M4 x 5 DIN7985 Philips screws that also come with a radiator.

Examples of pull or push left:

If you use fans on both sides of the radiator [push-pull], you will need an extra 4pcs M4 x 30 DIN7985 Philips screws that are sold separately via the EK shop (EAN: 3831109897997).

Examples of push/pull left:

• If you use fans on both sides of the radiator [push-pull], you will need an extra 4pcs M4 x 30 DIN7985 Philips screws that are sold separately via the EK shop (EAN: 3831109897997).

OPTIONAL

• Combo unit compatible brackets can also be bought separately from the EK shop for example, EK-Loop Uni Pump Reservoir Bracket – 120mm / 140mm (EAN: 3831109824689 / 3831109824696) version of both pump or reservoir bracket.
• Another option is that the unit is mounted to any chassis openings that support 105 x 105 mm or 125 x 125 mm raster holes.

RECOMMENDED PUMP RESERVOIR MANIFOLD CONFIGURATIONS

• To complete your loop, all ports must be used as marked in the image.
• All remaining unused ports must be closed with supplied plugs, using a 6mm Allen Key.
• If one of the prescribed components will not be installed (ie. radiator or GPU block) then one INLET and one OUTLET port must still be joined together for this unit to function!
• A1, A2 – EK recommends components with the highest heat load, ie. CPU blocks
• B1, B2 – EK recommends components with the 2nd highest heat load, ie. GPU blocks
• C1, C2 – EK recommends radiators for the coolest coolant return to the pump
• For optimal performance, EK recommends the usage of the same components in all 3 pairs (A, B, C) semi-parallel ports!

FLOW DIAGRAM

• If one of the prescribed components will not be installed (ie. radiator or GPU block) then one INLET and one OUTLET port per pair must still be used for this unit to function!
• If the user doesn’t want to use component B1 or B2 (one of them), the combo unit still works, as it has internal parallel channels.
• If the user doesn’t want to use components B1 and B2 (both of them) the user has 2 options:

1. Attach at least one of the A-in to B-in ports -> Connect the return flow of component A to the return flow of the B component. This then feeds the outlet of the C-out port.
2. Brick at least one port of B pairs port with an additional set of hose and fittings to keep the flow going.

DRAIN AND ACCESSORIES

• For draining purposes, EK supplied 1m of drain hose with a female Quick Disconnect (QD) fitting.
• Attach the female QD to the male QD located on the drain port of the pump reservoir combo unit.
• EK recommends opening fill port or any other port to allow air to enter the loop (faster draining).
• The coolant can be drained into a bucket or any other bottle the user may prefer.
• On the pump reservoir combo unit there are standard G1/4 thread holes that are compatible with any fittings from the EK portfolio. Hard or soft tubing can be used with this unit.

CONNECTING THE PUMP

The EK-D5 PWM pump has two connectors.

1. SATA Connector: It must be connected directly to your PSU at all times as it is used to power the pump.
2. 4-pin PWM fan: It can be connected to your motherboard’s CPU_ Fan or designated water pump header. It can also be connected to a controller.
   • This cable is used to control and report the rotational speed of the pump. If it’s not connected, the pump will run at maximum speed (100% PWM).

TESTING THE LOOP

• To make sure the installation of EK components was successful, we recommend you perform a leak test for 24 hours.
• When your loop is complete and filled with coolant, connect the pump to a PSU outside of your system. Do not connect power to any of the other components. Turn on the PSU and let the pump run continuously.
• It is normal for the coolant level to drop during this process as air collects in the combo unit.
• Inspect all parts of the loop, and in the eventuality that coolant leaks, fix the issue and repeat the testing process. Ensure that all hardware is dry before the system is powered on to prevent any damage.
