Installing the EK-Quantum Scalar² SFF Terminal
Step 1: Detach Terminal Badge
Detach the terminal badge and store it for the next step. The terminal badge is attached with two (2) magnets. Unscrew the pre-installed terminal from the water block using the [Allen Key] 2.5 mm.
⚠️ DO NOT REMOVE THE TERMINAL O-RING!
For this step, you will need:
- [Allen Key] 2.5mm
Step 2: Attach Replacement Terminal
Position the replacement terminal on the water block. During this process, make sure you have aligned the holes. Secure the terminal with three (3) [Screw] M4 x 12 DIN7984 Screws and [Allen Key] 2.5 mm. The saved terminal badge can be reused, after securing the replacement terminal.
⚠️ Make sure that cold plate O-rings stay in the slot before attaching the terminal!
For this step, you will need:
- [Allen Key] 2 mm
- Replacement Terminal
- [Screw] M4x 12 DIN7984 (3 pcs)
- [Terminal O-ring] (2 pcs)
- Terminal Badge
Fittings and Tubing
Step 1: Connect Fittings
Screw in two (2) G1/4 threaded male fittings. Attach the liquid cooling tubes and connect the water block to the cooling loop.
Do not forget to plug the remaining openings with the enclosed [Plug G1/4] or its equivalent.
EKWB recommends using EK fittings with all EK water blocks.
CAUTION: When using connectors other than EK fittings, pay special attention to the length of the fittings' male G1/4" thread - 5 mm is the maximum G1/4" thread length allowed!
Testing the Loop
To ensure the installation of EK components was successful, EKWB recommends performing 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. If coolant leaks are found, fix the issue and repeat the testing process. Ensure that all hardware is dry before the system is powered on to prevent any damage.
Warranty
EKWB products are warranted against defects of materials and quality for a period of 24 months, starting from the date of delivery to the end user. During this period, products will be repaired or have parts replaced at EKWB's discretion, provided that:
- The product is returned to the agent from whom it was purchased.
- The product has been purchased by the end-user and has not been used for commercial purposes.
- The product has not been misused, handled carelessly, or used in a manner other than described in the instruction manual.
This warranty does not confer rights other than those expressly set out above and does not cover any claims for consequential loss or damage. This warranty is offered as an extra benefit and does not affect your statutory rights as a consumer.
This warranty is voided if the product comes in contact with aggressive UV additives or other improper liquids. EK Water blocks are sealed with a warranty-voiding circular label, proving the water block has withstood a pressure leak test. Removing this label will void the leak-free guarantee, but not the guarantee on the product itself.
For any other RMA issues, please contact EK Customer Support at www.ekwb.com/support for further analysis.
