Informació de seguretat

  • Ensure all components are compatible before installation.
  • Always turn off and unplug your computer system before installing or removing any water cooling components.
  • Handle fittings with care to avoid damaging threads or O-rings.
  • Perform a leak test on your water cooling loop before powering on your system.

Configuració i instal·lació

  1. Preparació: Ensure your water cooling loop is drained and all components are clean.
  2. Thread Inspection: Carefully inspect the G1/4" threads on both the adapter and the component you intend to connect (e.g., radiator, pump, water block) for any damage or debris.
  3. O-Ring Check: Verify that the O-rings on the adapter are properly seated and free from damage. These are crucial for a watertight seal.
  4. Connexió: Screw the G1/4" AG (male) end of the adapter into the corresponding G1/4" IG (female) port on your water cooling component. Hand-tighten until snug. Do not overtighten, as this can damage the threads or O-rings.
  5. Connexió de tubs: If connecting tubing directly to the G1/4" IG (female) end of the adapter, ensure you use a compatible G1/4" male fitting for your tubing size (e.g., compression fitting for 8/5 mm tubing).
  6. Posicionament: Utilize the double rotary feature to adjust the angle of the adapter to achieve the desired tubing path.
  7. Prova de fuites: After assembling your entire water cooling loop, perform a thorough leak test for at least 24 hours using a leak tester or by filling the loop with distilled water and running the pump without powering on other system components.

Manteniment

Regular maintenance of your water cooling system helps ensure optimal performance and longevity of all components, including the Alphacool 45 Degree Double Rotary Angled Adapter.

  • Substitució del refrigerant: Replace your water cooling liquid every 6-12 months, or as recommended by your coolant manufacturer.
  • Buidat del sistema: When replacing coolant, it is recommended to flush the entire system with distilled water to remove any accumulated debris or old coolant residue.
  • Inspecció: Periodically inspect the adapter for any signs of wear, corrosion, or leaks, especially around the O-rings and rotary joints.
  • Neteja: If necessary, carefully clean the exterior of the adapter with a soft, damp tela. No utilitzeu productes químics o materials abrasius.
