INSTALLATION MANUAL
1st Revision, July 20, 2020

This product is intended for installation by expert users only. Please
consult with a qualified technician since improper installation
may result in damage to the equipment. EK assumes no liability
whatsoever, expressed or implied, for the use of these products,
nor their installation. The following instructions are subject to
change without notice. Please visit our website at www.ekwb.com
for updates.
Before you start using this product, please follow these basic guidelines:
Carefully read the manual before beginning with the
installation process.
EK Fittings require only a small amount of force to screw
them firmly in place since the liquid seal is ensured with the
rubber O-ring gaskets.
The use of quality market-proven corrosion-inhibiting
coolants is always strongly recommended for any liquid
cooling system.
Do not use pure distilled water as a cooling liquid! For best
results, EK recommends the use of EK-CryoFuel Coolants.

Terminal Cover
STEP 1
STEP 1
Carefully detach the terminal cover together with LEDs from the GPU
terminal. The latest EK water blocks come with no screws – all you
have to do is pull the cover away from the terminal. With the older
water block series, you may have to unscrew two screws (M4x8) to
remove the cover.
The cover can hang from the LEDs cable during installation, but
be careful not to pull on it.
STEP 2
Remove your GPU water block’s terminal. Unscrew the three screws
and remove the terminal from the GPU water block.

STEP 3
Insert the two enclosed O-rings into the appropriate grooves on the
backside of the Flow Indicator.
STEP 4
Use the three enclosed screws to attach the Flow Indicator (together
with O-rings) to the water block. Be careful not to use excessive force
when tightening the screws (ideal screwing torque is 0.5-0.7 Nm).
Also, make sure the O-rings are well placed inside the grooves,
so you won’t pinch them when screwing the Flow Indicator to the
water block.
