User manual ZALMAN RESERATOR2

[. . . ] If a leak is found, turn off the system immediately, and contact the place of purchase or ZALMAN. If the system will not be used for an extended period of time, then turn the Water Pump OFF. When moving the system, separate the Reserator from the PC case before moving. Do not let any air bubbles form inside the Water Block and the tubes during operation. [. . . ] 3 VGA Water Block (ZM-GWB3) 1SET Please refer to the separately provided manual for the ZM-GWB3. 4. 5 Jump Cable 1EA 7 RESERATOR 2 Optional Components Northbridge Water Block (ZM-NWB1) This anodized, pure aluminum block is built for high performance cooling, and is designed for Motherboard compatibility with a wide variety of northbridge chipsets. VGA RAM Water Block (ZM-RWB1) This VGA RAM Water Block is compatible with GeForce 7800/7900 and ATI X1800/X1900 in need of VGA RAM cooling. PVC Tube If the standard PVC tube is found to be short or you need to use the tube on another system, additional tubes can be purchased separately (12 x 8 mm). Heatpipe HDD Cooler This component cools the heat generated from the hard disk drive and reduces the vibration that is passed onto the computer's enclosure. Power Supply By implementing heat-sensor circuitry that controls the fan's speed in relation to the temperature within the power supply, noise is significantly reduced, making this component suitable for noiseless systems. 8 RESERATOR 2 5. 1 Determine the Placement of the Reserator The Reserator's placement should be determined in relation to the position of the PC. Note that if the Reserator is placed lower than the PC, the PVC tube's internal air pressure may prevent proper initial operation. English 5. 2 Install the Supports Install the enclosed Supports on to the Tab located on the bottom of the Reserator with the use of Bolts. 5. 3 Fill the Coolant 1) Take off the Reserator Cover after unscrewing its Bolts. 2) Fill with the provided coolant (ZM-G300, 250 ) and one liter of distilled water. Note 1) Fill in approximately 50% to avoid overflow within the Reservoir, and must refill because the water level decreases once the coolant begins to circulate after perfectly releasing the air within the Reservoir. Note 2) The provided coolant is a concentrate, and must be mixed down with distilled water in the ratio of 1:4. Note 4) Keep this product and its associated system away from children. 9 RESERATOR 2 5. 4 Reserator's Coolant Circulation 1) The purpose of connecting the Jump Cable of the power supply's main connector (20P/24P) is to receive direct current (12V) needed for the test and leakage inspection. 2) Turn off all power of the PC and switch the Power Supply's ON/OFF button to OFF, connect the enclosed Degassing Tube to the Reserator's IN-OUT, and provide power to the AC cable. 3) Disconnect the power supply's main connector (20P/24P) and the CPU 4-Pin connector from the motherboard, and connect the green wire terminal with the black wire terminal with the use of Jump Cable. 4) Connect the Reserator's DC cable connector to the power supply's 4-Pin connector, and provide power to the PC by switching the power supply's ON/OFF button to ON. 5) Blue LED will light up and the impeller located inside the Flow Indicator of the Reserator's front panel will begin to rotate when the power is supplied. (At this moment, let the coolant circulate for approximately 30 seconds, then cut off the direct current and wait for the impeller to stop. Once the impeller has come to a complete halt, you must restart it in order to entirely eliminate the internal air. ) 6) If the coolant is not circulating well due to internal air pressure during initial operation, then tilt the Reserator by approximately 70 and repeatedly turn the Reserator ON/OFF with the Light/Reset button to completely release internal air trapped within the Reserator body (must press the Reset button for longer than 5 seconds). 7) If the coolant is circulating properly, then turn of the power of the Power Supply, disconnect the Degassing Tube, and disassemble the Quick Coupling Insert. Note 1) Pay attention so that the coolant inside the Reservoir does not spill. If air is completely released, then turn off the Power Supply and begin installing the water blocks. Note 3) During coolant circulation, if the Flow Indicator fails to effectively sense the flux, then the alarm will go off and the red LED will flicker. [. . . ] 4) Flow Indicator The coolant flow can be observed with naked eyes by seeing the Flow Indicator with its integrated impeller, and bright Blue LED produces an elegant feel. 14 RESERATOR 2 6. 1 Installing the External Water Pump English After determining the placement of the External Water Pump, check the components that create a path as shown above. If is recommended that the installation is done in such a manner. 6. 2 Cautionary Notes on Choosing and Installing an External Water Pump 1) When installing an External Water Pump, confirm the coolant entrance and exit holes before connection.
