Decent price, kept me updated with progress, well packed (and they chucked in some sweeties!) and good delivery. Great service overall.Read on Google
All reservoirs of the ULTITUBE series are equipped with a borosilicate glass tube. In contrast to acrylic glass, which is often used for tube reservoirs, borosilicate glass is extremely hard and scratch-resistant, features superb thermal and chemical resistance and a very low thermal expansion. The glass tube has an outer diameter of 65 mm and a wall thickness of 5 mm. Black anodized aluminum rings are securely bonded to both ends of the glass tube, and the rings do not get into contact with the coolant. Base and lid of the ULTITUBE series reservoirs are made from resilient acetal and screwed to the glass tube. After unscrewing the lid, a large opening ensures easy filling.
At the bottom of the reservoir, an integrated stainless steel mesh filter element effectively separates both particles and air bubbles from the coolant. The mesh filter is integrated into a molded rubber part and can be rinsed with tap water. The gasket between glass tube and lid is also a molded rubber part, designed to be securely held in the right position during fastening of the lid.
The PRO version ships with a RGBpx compatible LED ring with 13 addressable LEDs that can be used for effective illumination of the reservoir. The LEDs can be directly connected to the D5 NEXT pump. A connector at the end of the strip can be used to connect another RGBpx component consecutively.
For additional, vibration dampening fixation of the reservoir in the upper area of the glass tube, a fixation ring made from rubber with a stainless steel insert is included
LEAKSHIELD actively prevents leaks and continuously monitors the coolant loop for even very small leaks. Designed specifically for reservoirs of the ULTITUBE series, LEAKSHIELD replaces the top lid of the reservoir. In addition to leak prevention, LEAKSHIELD can check the system for leaks even before filling the system, enable easy filling by a suction line, as well as monitor the fill level of the reservoir.
LEAKSHIELD generates a negative pressure in the whole coolant loop, therefore in case of a leak, coolant cannot exit the system, but ambient air is sucked into the system. In order to ensure that there is a negative pressure everywhere in the system, the amount of negative pressure can be adjusted depending on the installed coolant pump.
If air does indeed enter the system, an integrated vacuum pump of LEAKSHIELD removes it from the system to maintain the negative pressure. Only in case of massive leaks, for example a completely separated tube, may coolant exit the cooling system.
By monitoring changes in pressure and the volume of pumped air, LEAKSHIELD can precisely calculate the current fill level of the reservoir.
Even before the cooling system is started up for the first time, LEAKSHIELD can be used to check the system for leaks. In leak tester mode, a negative pressure is generated in the system and then monitored for changes in pressure. An integrated, highly accurate pressure sensor in LEAKSHIELD continuously monitors changes in pressure, the leak rate also can be displayed in ml/h. Even minuscule pressure changes are detected, enabling detection of very small leaks.
Instead of pouring coolant into the reservoir, negative pressure generated by LEAKSHIELD can be used to suck coolant directly from a coolant container using an optional suction line. Splashing and spills while filling are effectively prevented.
Current status and sensor data can be checked on the OLED display of LEAKSHIELD. The display can be freely rotated by 360 degrees. Integrated, digital RGB LEDs can visualize current status or be freely configured to match your personal preferences.
Using the USB interface of LEAKSHIELD and the aquasuite Software, all data can be checked on the computer, additionally hardware data available in the aquasuite can be transmitted to the device and displayed on the OLED display.
In case configurable alarm thresholds are exceeded, an integrated alarm buzzer is activated. Alarm messages will also be shown on the OLED display, the integrated RGB LEDs provide another visual indication. For emergency shutdown of the PC, LEAKSHIELD can send USB keyboard commands. Furthermore, an alarm signal header can be connected to the motherboard's power switch header using optional accessories not included in delivery.
The reservoir is equipped with an Aqua Computer D5 NEXT pump, installed directly into the base of the reservoir.
Mounting material for installation to a side/rear panel or to the bottom of a PC case is included in delivery. For decoupling, four soft rubber buffers are included.
When you activate this product you will receive the current version of the aquasuite software including an upgrade service for at least eighteen (18) months. After expiration of the upgrade service you may use and reinstall the latest version available during the upgrade period without a time limit.
The update service can optionally be extended or renewed at any time for a fee.
Please note that an internet connection is required for the installation and activation of the aquasuite software.
Fittings are not included in delivery, please order separately.
