Swiftech H20 120 - Manual (Page 12)

While your pump is still running, flip your case face up as shown figure
11 for a few seconds. This will allow all the air trapped in the radiator
and other components to bleed out.
Then, bring the case back to vertical again.
Open and close the main valve a few seconds one more time, just to
allow any left over bubbles.
Visually inspect your lines for any traces of air, and if none are
observed, close both inlet and discharge valves as shown in
figure 12.

FINALLY, MAKE SURE TO RE-OPEN THE MAIN
VALVE! FAILURE TO DO SO WILL PREVENT
ANY CIRCULATION IN YOUR SYSTEM, AND
CAUSE IT TO FAIL RAPIDLY.
Laying the computer face up to
allow all the air to bleed.
5. Final
steps
Lift the inlet, and discharge tubes from the bottle above the coolant
level, and lower the bottle below the level of the computer. This will
allow whatever coolant was trapped into the tubes to empty itself into
the feed bottle: no spill, no mess ☺
Disconnect the fill and bleed tubes from the valves as shown figure 12.
Removing tubes from quick-connect fittings is quite easy but takes a
little practice:
The FBK525 inlet and discharge valves feature two little
“ears” on the collet, which ease the removal process: Firmly
hold the tube in the cradle formed by three fingers, and
push against the ears with thumb and index fingers. This
will disengage the tube from the fitting. Correct position
of the hand and fingers is shown in figure 12.
Finally, clean off the opening of the fittings to prevent the last remnants
of moisture to drop into your case.
Installation is complete!

IV. Draining the system
Insert the fill and bleed tubes into inlet and discharge valves.
Place the tube from the discharge valve into an empty container.
Close the main valve. Open the inlet valve.
Clean off the extremity of the tube from the inlet valve and blow into it to flush the liquid out. Do not use compressed air to perform
this operation, as it could damage your pump.
V. Periodic maintenance
Every 6 months: dust off the radiator fins and fan. You can use a can of compressed air for example, available in most
electronic supply stores. If you live in a very dusty area, you should perform this task at closer intervals. It is essential to
the optimum performance of your cooling system.
Inspect the level of liquid inside the circuit, and refill if necessary. Evaporation in this closed circuit is extremely limited, but
still present due to microscopic porosity in the vinyl lines.
