UMP INSTALLATION
General Use
The MCP655-B pump is a magnetically driven centrifugal pump featuring a
12 V DC motor. It requires no maintenance when used with de-mineralized
water and the appropriate anti-fungal additives. We recommend using 5%
Swiftech’s HydrX
as an additive. The pump is designed to be connected
to your computer power supply using the standard Molex 4 pin connectors.
A second 3-pin connector (single blue wire) is an RPM sensor designed to
be connected to the motherboard in lieu of the CPU fan connector and the
motherboard to read the pump speed.
The MCP655-B pump is neither submersible, nor self- priming. The inlet
needs to be continuously supplied with fluid for the pump to operate
properly.
Physical installation
Determine the best location for your pump by observing how the
tubing will be routed to the rest of the circuit. Sharp bends in the tubing
should always be avoided to prevent kinks, which will reduce or
cmpletely prevent flow of the cooling fluid.
