Install the MCX4000-T assembly onto your processor, as shown on
figure 6.
Gradually tighten the screws in a crisscross pattern until you feel that
they reach the bottom of the standoff. A “finger-tight” lock is sufficient.
Conversely, adjustments such as tightening the screws only partially are
strictly prohibited. Such attempts will result in improper contact between
the CPU core and the heat sink, and result in CPU overheating.
To further prevent condensation to occur behind the motherboard, a
neoprene sticker is provided with your MCX4000-T accessories.
Apply it to the back of the motherboard, directly behind the
processor.
Now, you can re-install the MB inside the case.
CRITICAL INSTRUCTIONS:
Never run a thermoelectric module without a fan.
This will result in catastrophic failure of the cooling
element, and may cause any/all of the following:
permanent failure of the Peltier module
permanent damage to the CPU and/or
motherboard due to excess heat
It is highly recommended that you dedicate the auxiliary power
supply for the thermoelectric module to the computer power-
supply. This will prevent the Peltier module to operate without a
fan. For this purpose, we recommend the following accessory,
available in our online shopping cart:
PRS Kit II,
Includes:
Relay Switch Circuit board AC socket, S/S socket cover, power cord
This relay switch is rated for 110 to 220~240 volts and up to 50A
inrush current. It is suitable for use with the S-320-12 Meanwell
power supply recommended in paragraph 3, page 4.
If you run your computer unattended for extended periods of
time, it is also a good practice to setup an alarm temperature,
which will shut down the computer in case the CPU overheats.
Such alarm/shut down process should be tested as functional.
