8/ Final step: filling & bleeding the circuit

We recommend using the following mix:
90% purified water + 10% RedLine water
wetter (available at auto parts stores).

In order to fill and bleed the circuit, you will need
to activate the pump. Since you do not want to
run the computer until the cooling circuit is
completely operational, you should temporarily
connect the L wire to the N\C position of the
switch. WARNING: do not forget to reconnect
to N\O once you are ready to run the
computer: if you leave the L wire connected to
N\C, the pump will shut off as soon as the
relay is energized by the power supply, and
there would be no flow in the cooling circuit,
causing your CPU to overheat.

1. Place a holding tank containing your

cooling fluid above the computer.

2. Connect the ¼” tube provided with your kit.

Tube 1 goes to valve 1 and tube 2 goes to
valve 3

3. Plunge tube 1 only into the holding tank,

making sure it is entirely submerged

4. Open valve1, close valve 2, open valve

3

5. Prime the circuit by gently sucking in air

from tube 2, just enough that you see the
liquid starting to flow down in tube 1

6. Now, you can plunge tube 2 back into the

holding tank

7. Start

the

pump

8. Let the pump run for 1 minute as shown in

the picture to the right. The liquid should
be flowing freely from tube 2 into the
holding tank.

9. Important step: after a minute, and

while the pump is still running:

Take the holding tank and tubes into
one hand –making sure that the tubes
remain plunged into the liquid,

Then lay the computer down for just a
few seconds once flat on it’s back, and
once flat on its belly. This will bleed any
air still trapped into the circuit.
