Pump Operations and specifications

General Use

The MCP35X™™ pump is a magnetically driven centrifugal pump featuring a 12 V DC brushless motor. It requires no
maintenance when used with de-mineralized water and the appropriate anti-fungal additives. We recommend using 10%

as an additive. The pump is designed to be connected to your computer power supply using standard

Molex connectors.

The pump features a second wire equipped with a 4-pin connector designed to connect to a motherboard PWM fan
header (typically marked CPU_Fan), allowing speed control of the pump from 1300 to 4500 rpm. If not connected, then
the pump defaults to its maximum 4500 rpm speed.

You can adjust the pump speed the same way you
would adjust the CPU fan speed. This can be
accomplished by adjusting the appropriate settings in the
motherboard BIOS (please refer to your motherboard
installation guide for specific how-to), or by using
motherboard tweaking utilities.

The pump speed will then vary according to CPU
temperature based on your own preferences.

The graph listed to the right shows the pump speed
response as a function of the % PWM set in the BIOS.
