Please note the installation of the product is intended to be
undertaken by an adequately trained and experienced person.
You are installing the product at your own risk. If you are not
properly trained or experienced or feel unsure about the
installation procedure, please refrain from installing the product
yourself and contact our tech support for assistance. We disclaim
our liability for any damages to the product as well as incidental,
consequential, or indirect damages incurred due to improper or
inappropriate installation.
Before you start using this product please follow these basic guidelines:
Please carefully read the manual before beginning with the
installation process!
The EK Fittings require only a small amount of force to screw
them firmly in place since the liquid seal is ensured by the
rubber O-ring gaskets.
The use of corrosion inhibiting coolants is always recommended
for any liquid cooling system. EKWB recommends any of the
EKCryofuel for worry-free usage.

PREPARING THE FRACTAL XL CHASSIS
Before installing the distribution plate, carefully read
the PC case manual.
STEP 1
First, remove the front, side, and top panels from the PC case.
STEP 2
STEP 2
Unscrew the 4 (four) marked factory screws and remove the HDD
panel.
STEP 1

STEP 2
Secure the distribution plate to the chassis with three (3) M3 x 8
DIN7984 and one (1) M3 x 5 DIN7984 screw (as shown in the diagram).
Tighten the screws according to the numerical order shown in the
image!
STEP 2
INSTALLING THE DISTRIBUTION PLATE
STEP 1
Carefully place the EK-Quantum Reflection2Fractal XL D5 PWM D-RGB
distribution plate into the PC case and align the mounting holes.

To complete your loop, all ports must be used as marked in the image.
All remaining unused ports must be closed with supplied plugs,
using the EK-Loop Multi Allen Key.
If one of the prescribed components will not be installed
(ie. bottom radiator or GPU block) then one INLET and
one OUTLET port must still be joined together in order
for this distribution plate to function!
Only one INLET and one OUTLET port for the GPU
connection can be used, while all other INLET and
OUTLET GPU ports must be closed with G1/4 plugs.

While securing the Top radiator with Fans into the PC case, make
sure to select the marked holes.
Otherwise, reusing the front panel is not possible.
INSTALLING THE RADIATORS AND FANS
With the EK-Quantum Reflection2Fractal XL D5 PWM D-RGB
distribution plate, it’s possible to connect the Top Radiator (Up to
480 mm) and Side Radiator (Up to 360 mm).

ATTACHING THE PUSH-IN ADAPTER (OPTIONAL)
The push-in adapter can be attached to the marked place in the
diagram.
For easier installation of the push-in adapters, EK recommends to
lubricate the O-rings with a few drops of coolant or water.

CONNECTING THE D-RGB LED STRIP
Plug the 3-pin connector of the distribution plate D-RGB LED light
to the D-RGB HEADER on the motherboard. The LED will work if the
pin layout on the header is as follows: +5V, Digital, Empty, Ground.

CONNECTING THE PUMP
The EK-D5 PWM pump has two connectors.
1. SATA Connector: It must be connected directly to your PSU at all
times as it is used to power the pump.
2. 4-pin PWM fan: It can be connected to your motherboard’s
CPU_ Fan or designated water pump header. It can also be
connected to a controller. This cable is used to control and report
the rotational speed of the pump. If it’s not connected, the pump
will run at maximum speed (100% PWM).

To make sure the installation of EK components was successful, we
recommend you perform a leak test for 24 hours.
When your loop is complete and filled with coolant, connect the
pump to a PSU outside of your system. Do not connect power to
any of the other components. Turn on the PSU and let the pump
run continuously. It is normal for the coolant level to drop during this
process as air collects in the distribution plate.
Inspect all parts of the loop, and in the eventuality that coolant leaks,
fix the issue and repeat the testing process. Ensure that all hardware is
dry before the system is powered on in order to prevent any damage.
TESTING THE LOOP
