3. Water-block installation:
Step 1
Step 2
Step 3
Center the water-block inside the retention
frame. Put both clips in place for the next
step, by simply slipping the hook of each
clip into the holes of the retention frame. While maintaining the opposite side of the
block to prevent it from tipping over, push
down on the clips’ thumb-tab until the hook
catches the hole in the retention frame. Keep maintaining pressure on the block to
prevent it from tipping over, and hook-down
the second clip.
Installation is complete!
Tubes attached with the included worm-
drive clamps
4. Connecting the water-block(s) to the cooling circuit:
Carefully identify the direction of the flow in your circuit. For the MCW6000 to operate properly,
the fitting located at the center of the water-block MUST BE USED AS THE INLET.
5. Attaching the tubes:
In kit form, the MCW6000™ ships with 2’ of tube already clamped to inlet and outlet. When sold
separately, two worm-drive hose clamps are included.
6. Type of Coolant:
Being entirely made of copper, the MCW6000™ may be used with pure water, and does not
necessitate the use of anti-corrosion agents. The use of an algaecide is nonetheless
recommended in any liquid cooling system, and our HydrX™ additive also performs such
function.
7. Final inspection:
Once the installation is completed, it is always a good idea to test the circuit for leaks, prior to
powering up the computer. Do not test the water-block using city water pressure. This will
bow the top of the housing and render the block unusable (and will void your warranty).
Maximum pressure allowable for testing is 25 psi (1.7 bar)
