I. Special features and Advantages
1.In comparison to air-cooling devices, water-cooling devices provide good system stability by preventing abrupt system temperature change and improving cooling performance.
2.WCL-03 is compatible with wide range of CPUs including Intel Pentium III, IV/ AMD Athlon, and Duron.
3.It does not require any external devices, with WCL-03’s compact design, whole system can be installed internally.
4.Simple and easy installation, even beginners have no problem.
5.All supplemental parts are made of the same material. It was to prevent all corrosion possibilities.
6.WCL-03 eliminated any possibility of leakage with special design attention on integrated CPU jacket and water pump
7.Cooling performance has improved with redesigned CPU intercooler. Even with compact design of WCL-03.

III. Product Details
1. CPU Jacket, Radiator and Water Tank Assembly
1)CPU Jacket and Water Pump Assembly
CPU Jacket: 0.5 mm (0.012 inches) fins on the internal surface of CPU jacket creates the most surface area for
most efficient cooling performance.
Water pump: integrated with CPU jacket and eliminated any possibility of leakage.
2)Radiator and Water Tank Assembly
Radiator: maximized internal surface area creates best thermal efficiency.
Water Tank: makes it free from natural evaporation problem for 1 to 2 years. The coolant can be refilled through the water tank.

2. Fan Bracket
Install radiator onto any existing case fans easily using this fan bracket. (19 page)
3.80mm Silent Cooling Fan
Average Speed : 2000RPM, Noise Level : About 20 dBA.
It may be replaced with high speed fan or low speed fan for your specific use.
4.AMD/ Intel CPU Clip
INTEL |
AMD |
It can have variable tension control. Selecting appropriate tension for your system will prevent any damage to CPU core.
5. Sticker
It shows your system is protected by reliable water cooling unit.
8
6. Fan Screws
Used when you do not wish to use the included fan bracket and fasten directly to radiator housing.
7. Thermal Grease
Apply and rub gently on your CPU core, this will allow most efficient thermal conductivity between CPU jacket and CPU core.
8. Radiator Pad
It is for preventing any reverse airflow. When you install fan onto radiator housing, you can use this pad between the fan and radiator housing to prevent any reverse airflow.
9. Installation guide book
This book guides you how to install. Maintenance instructions are given to you.

IV. Product Installation Procedure
1. CPU Jacket Installation
1)Proper CPU Jacket Placement
Vertical Installation:
Install as shown on the right.
Horizontal Installation: Install as shown on the right.
2)Thermal grease application:
Prior to installing CPU jacket, apply thinly over the CPU core and spread gently over the core.
10
3) Circuit board installation (Optional)Temperature sensor installation
1 2
aAs above pictures, you should place the sensor adjacent to the core. DO NOT place the sensor on the core.
bYou may use any double-sided tape to attach the sensor in place.
cFor more accurate measurement, you may apply thermal grease over the sensor as well.
d Be careful not to damage the sensor during installation as the sensor may slide onto the core.
11
4)Clip installation
AMD Athlon ,Duron/Intel Pentium 3/ Pentium4 a Place the CPU jacket on the CPU.
b Adjust the nut as shown in the picture below.
12
c Slide the clips into the CPU socket or retention mechanism.
Align the CPU jacket and clip assembly with the retention mechanism or CPU socket and place the clip head on the top edge of the water pump.
Intel
AMD
13
dSecure the CPU jacket with the nut until CPU jacket is stable in place.
14
Bit by bit, one after the other, tighten up each nut so that equal pressure is given to both clips.
Giving excessive pressure may cause damage on CPU core or result in other critical impairment. Please be cautious never to tighten up the clip beyond the point the spring normally allows without getting pressed out of shape.
We, 3R SYSTEM , are not responsible for any malfunction or damage of the product and any damage on your system or system components, including CPU core damage, all of which resulted from giving too much pressure to the clips.
eAfter you finish with the settling with the CPU jacket, please cover the top of the clip with the clip cap.
15
fWhen CPU jacket is securely installed, connect its power RPM signal connector to the power outlet from the PSU (Power Supply Unit) and the CPU fan connector on motherboard.
16
5)Radiator and water tank Installation
Attach the water tank on the radiator using the clip.
Install radiator to have inflow and outflow valve at the bottom and place the water tank on top.
Attach the radiator rear of the
chassis where you can install an 80mm case fan.
Clip
Please take care that the hoses are not bent while installing.
17
6)Fan Installation
In case of using included fan
Please install the fan as shown in the picture below.
The direction of the air flow is very important to the performance.
18
In case of using high speed 80mm fan like 3,500 RPM or higher
Please install the fan as shown in the picture below.
19
2. Reverse front case fan flow direction
1.As shown, if there is a front inflow case fan, it may interfere with radiator fan airflow.
2.In this case, reverse the front inflow fan to the front outflow case fan. This will assist radiator fan(s) airflow.

V. Coolant Refill
1.Lack of coolant
1)There might be some natural evaporation after 1 or 2 years of the operation.
2)You need to refill the coolant when ;
-you hear some strange sound from the water pump.
-the coolant is not flowing.
Even if there is lack of coolant the cooling unit will not be damaged.
Please keep the water tank side up all the time. When you reinstall the water cooler, there might be too much air inside of the water pump which makes the system doesn’t work properly. In this case, please uninstall the system and shake the pump with water tank upside to remove the air from the pump. After that, reinstall the system.
21
2.Refilling Coolant.
1)You need to shut down the system and unplug the power code from the power outlet before you begin.
2)Open the cap of the water tank and refill the coolant using distilled water which can be purchased from a pharmacy or a CVS using a syringe or a dropper.
3)After you finish first refill, please repeat procedure 1 & 2 once more after running the system for 5 minutes or more.
Detach the water tank |
Refill the coolant |
Please be careful with the liquid not to drop on the system.
Please avoid any physical contact, especially eye area and bare skin. The fluid inside this product may cause irritation if it contacts your body. Incase of contact, immediately flush eyes or skin with plenty of water. If irritation persists, call a physician.
