- Mount either the standard bracket or the extended bracket to the radiator using the 4 M3x6 screws.
- Position the reservoir between the mounted brackets.
- Secure the reservoir to the brackets using the 4 M3x5 countersunk screws on the sides. Refer to case mounting instructions for additional options.
Important Notes for Radiator Mounting:
- Brackets and reservoirs must be screwed in vertically.
- The pump must be positioned at the lowest point of the assembly.
- The reservoir is only suitable for 120mm radiators.
Fill Port Usage
The inlets can be used to fill the expansion tank. Screw in the screw plugs using the provided tool. It is recommended to use clear Alphacool coolants and avoid UV variants.
Stop Plug Usage
Ensure the stop plug is always screwed into the position shown if a thread is not being used as an inlet.
Tube Assembly
Connect the reservoir's inlet and outlet ports as shown in the diagram.
Digital RGB Assembly
Instructions for integrating digital RGB lighting:
- Carefully insert the provided A-RGB strip into the designated groove, ensuring no components are damaged. This applies to all Rise Flat Reservoir variants.
- To control the digital RGB lighting, connect the included adapter to the 3-pin female connector and then to a digital RGB controller (e.g., Alphacool Aurora Eiscontrol, sold separately). Additional digital RGB LEDs can be connected to the remaining 3-pin male connector.
