Introduction

Congratulations on your purchase of a Koolance system!
As the most sophisticated product of its kind, Koolance offers many unique features found nowhere else in the realm of computer cooling. In addition, you can expect to enjoy all of the advantages that water-cooling technology brings with it.
Advantages of Water Cooling
Water transfers 30 times faster, and holds over 4 times more heat than air.
With this thermal conductivity and specifi c heat capacity, it’s easy to see why liquid cooling is getting a lot of attention from hardware manufacturers.
Heat-producing devices in a typical computer are cooled by air. Generally, this involves mounting a heat sink and fan to each component. For example, heat generated from your CPU (or other heat source) is transferred into a metal heat sink, where a fan blows air across its wide surface area.
While altering a heat sink’s size and makeup can improve the effectiveness, it is still limited because air absorbs and transfers heat very slowly. To help compensate for this, the fan is often run at a higher speed. Many people have therefore come to equate high performance with high noise. As systems continued to be upgraded, the required heat sinks simply got larger and louder.
Liquid cooling greatly reduces the noise issue. A larger amount of heat is
withdrawn from the components more quickly, and less airfl ow is required to cool them.
The heat exchanger is also located remotely from heat-producing devices, so airfl ow can be controlled. This considerably reduces dust accumulation on
sensitive hardware and can result in a cleaner overall system.
Advantages of Koolance Systems
Koolance was the fi rst company to offer fully-integrated, consumer-level PC liquid
cooling systems to the world-wide market. Our products are designed and built to look and operate professionally. You will not need power tools or a tape
measure to install your Koolance system, and it should even be less diffi cult than assembling your own computer.
Koolance offers liquid coolers for every major hardware device. Providing
enormous fl exibility, you can customize your system to fi t your specifi c needs— cool dual processors in a server, multiple hard drives in a RAID confi guration, or add dual video cooling to a gaming rig.
2
Introduction
Every Koolance system includes built-in hardware safety features. Our
proprietary power control board constantly monitors liquid temperature, sounding an alarm if it should get too high, and even turning-off your computer if you are not there to do so.
But Koolance’s innovations extend beyond just cooling features. Our safe, patent-pending CPU Retention Clip places even pressure across the CPU,
protecting the chip and simplifying installation. There’s even a ratcheting tension screw for precise contact pressure.
Finally, Koolance systems allow coolers to be easily exchanged and upgraded
to address future hardware compatibility.

Introduction
System Settings
By default, the ERM-3K4U automatically adjusts fan speeds based on the liquid temperature inside the reservoir. For actual CPU temperatures, please refer to your motherboard’s BIOS, or 3rd-party software.
The Koolance system alarm will sound if the reservoir sensor gets too high (default: 55ºC / 131ºF). While alarming, the radiator fans will increase to 100% power. This temperature is adjustable (See “LED Display - Alarm Settings”).
For the option of automatic shutdown, Koolance recommends confi guring each connected computer in BIOS or 3rd-party OS software to shutdown based on CPU temperature or another available component.
LED Display Panel
The front ERM-3K4U LED Display allows for visual monitoring of the Koolance sensor temperature, adjustment of the alarm, and adds 10 manual fan speeds to the default automatic setting.

This option adjusts the radiator fan speed. Higher speeds can improve performance, but will produce more noise. There is 1 automatic and 10 manual fan settings (1-10). Press the
or buttons to cycle through these settings, or hold down
an arrow to skip to the highest or lowest mode directly.
Automatic mode will adjust the fans for you based on temperature values from the primary reservoir sensor. automatic mode is reached by lowering the fan setting
to “0” (Aut / A1 will be displayed).

LED Display - Alarm Settings
By default, the Koolance audio alarm will sound if the primary sensor reaches 55ºC (131ºF). When the system alarm sounds, the LED temperature will fl ash in the display and the radiator fans will increase to 100% power.
To change this setting with the LED Display, press and hold + together for
3 seconds. The alarm temperature will begin fl ashing. You may change this value from 0ºC (32ºF) up to 99ºC (210ºF). The normal temperature reading will resume if you do not press any buttons for 4 seconds.
To reset the temperature alarm to the default (55ºC / 131ºF) setting, press and
hold the ºC/F button until “dEF” fl ashes in the display. NOTE: This will also reset
the fan speed mode to “auto”.

Power Connection
The ERM-3K4U has a primary power connection on the rear side. This will accept either 120V/60Hz or 220V/50Hz inputs. The main AC power switch will be illuminated whenever power is supplied to the ERM-3K4U unit, whether the switch is “ON” or “OFF”. The “ON” position is indicated with an arrow: .
Pump Connections
Pump 1 Pump 2 Pump 3 Pump 4 Pump 5
(Number of pumps present varies by model.)
The ERM-3K4U can have up to fi ve pump inlet and outlet connections (depending on the model) on the back of the unit. All pump lines run through a shared heat exchanger and reservoir. There is no internal separation of liquid. Since each pump has a dedicated power switch, not all pumps must be connected or operated simultaneously.
Each pump inlet/outlet is typically confi gured as a separate “loop” to maintain coolant pressure and fl ow rate. That is, one or more heat sources (from one or more computers) can be chained in series on a single pump loop. The restrictions on this depends on the acceptable temperature range at each heat source. Adding components such as water blocks, fi ttings, quick disconnects, and tubing will reduce coolant pressure and fl ow rate and this can increase temperatures of each heat source on the loop.
Tubing single pump loops is not a universal rule, however, and some applications may benefi t from combining various pump inlets and/or outlets together. The ERM- 3K4U conveniently lends itself to experimentation, but that is largely beyond the scope of this user manual.

Cooler & Tubing Confi guration
3/8” (10mm) or 1/4” (6mm) ID
Rear quick disconnect nozzles for 3/8” (10mm) internal diameter tubing are included with the ERM-3K4U. If desired, these pump inlets and outlets can be converted directly to 1/4” (6mm) ID lines using optional Koolance quick disconnect nozzles. For 1U profi le computers, 1/4” (6mm) ID is recommended.
Depending on the cooling blocks (“coolers”) in your Koolance system and tubing sizes, they may be connected in series, parallel, or a mixture of both for best performance. Recommended confi gurations are illustrated below.
NOTE: For simplicity, tubing ID (internal diameter) will be listed in metric units. Please use these approximate conversions for emperical sizes:

6 mm 1/4 in.
10 mm 3/8 in.
13 mm 1/2 in.
Hose Adapter
“Y” Hose Splitter
“F” Hose Splitter
Series Tubing
For loops with only a few blocks, a simple series loop should provide the best overall performance. For an ERM-3K4U unit, a single “loop” connects to the same pump inlet and outlet. This confi guration can be duplicated on each pump.

If you are comfortable experimenting with different tubing setups, there may be more optimal confi gurations for your particular system. Koolance offers a variety of hose
splitters, adapters, and nozzles on the website: www.koolance.com
Remember, liquid even at higher temperatures is still considerably more effective at carrying heat than air at the same temperature.
In general, Koolance rates the ERM-3K4U at 3000W of maximum heat dissipation while keeping a heat source at 55°C (131°F), in 25°C (77°F) ambient with fans at 100%.
11
Connecting Hoses
Each tubing connection uses a threaded compression fi tting (“hose screw”) to keep it secure. To connect these components:
Thread a hose screw onto the tube end.
If you are fi nding it diffi cult to connect smaller tubes, try temporarily stretching-out the tube end by inserting long-nose pliers. It can also help to wet the nozzle slightly before attaching the hose.
Squeeze the tube while pushing it rmly over the nozzle. Tubing should completely cover the nozzle.
Tighten the connection by sliding the compression fi tting down over the nozzle and screwing it securely by hand.
Do not overtighten the nozzle fi tting. Most connections are leak resistant even before the compression fi tting is added.
12
Connecting ERM-3K4U Systems
Disconnecting Hoses
Hoses are designed to snug fi rmly around the nozzle. If you need to remove a hose for any reason, it may not pull off easily, even after unscrewing the compression tting.
Usually, a connection will come free by squeezing the hose on top of the nozzle
and pulling away. Pulling in front of the nozzle will stretch the tubing and make it tighter.
If this fails, cutting a small incision lengthwise (parallel) along the nozzle will free it. If the nozzle is plastic, be especially careful when cutting a connection so as not to damage it.
When a hose screw has been removed, it may have distorted the tubing beneath it. This last small portion should be trimmed to ensure a perfect fi t with the next connection.
The tip should always be re-cut if you needed to remove the tubing with an
incision.
13
Hose Lengths
Before installing your liquid coolers, appropriate lengths of tubing must be cut to connect each device. It may be easier to temporarily lay your motherboard and video card inside the case to better estimate the required amounts.
Generally, the outlet of the cooling system or radiator will connect with your CPU Cooler, but this is completely optional.
With one of the connected hoses, roughly estimate the length you will need to your rst cooler, and cut it.
Cut the second hose with enough length to connect with the last cooler that will be in your system.
Using the leftover tubing, cut shorter pieces to link between each individual cooler and/or hose splitter.
14
Connecting ERM-3K4U Systems
Continue connecting all of your coolers in the system until there are no longer any open tube ends.
Liquid Coolers
You should now install the liquid coolers (CPU, GPU, Hard Drive, etc.) to your hardware before continuing this User Manual. Please refer to your cooler kits’ individual installation instructions, then continue on to the next section.

Filling & Maintenance
WARNING: The ERM-3K4U pumps can not be run “dry” for any period
of time. Never power-on the cooling system without suffi cient liquid
!
in the reservoir. Dry-running (and thereby damaging the pump) is not covered under the Koolance product warranty.
16
Filling & Maintenance
Testing & Filling
Once all of the coolers have been con­nected, the system can be fi lled with coolant. The refi ll plug is located on top of the reservoir bay unit.
Unscrew the small metal refill plug by hand. If it is too tight, use pliers to loosen it gently.
T o avoid damaging the tank thread­ing, never use tools to tighten the metal refi ll plug when screwing it back in.
WARNING: The liquid coolant is electrically conductive. Use caution
when fi lling the system, and keep all liquids away from computer
!
hardware and power cables. In case of emergency during installation, immediately unplug the computer’s rear power supply cable. Dry the system thoroughly before proceeding.
Slowly fi ll the system using the supplied funnel and coolant.
Do not overfi ll the reservoir. It is recom- mended to keep paper towels on hand just in case. The liquid coolant should be lled up to about 13mm (1/2”) from the reservoir’s top.
Replace the reservoir’s refi ll plug.
To maintain the product warranty, use only Koolance approved coolant. Many alter­native “liquid coolants” and additives can cause permanent damage to Koolance equipment and computer hardware.
17
Allow the pump to run for about 1-5 minutes. When fi ltration has ended, the liquid “bubbling” noise should stop. The reservoir level will typically drop during this bleeding process. Add more coolant and repeat as neces­sary until the reservoir level stabilizes. (In the future, if you begin to hear air bubbles rushing through the pump, it may indicate that more coolant needs to be added.)
Pump Cavitation
The ERM-3K4U pumps can be sensitive to cavitation during the initial bleeding process. If there is an air gap in the pump during power-up, the pump may not be able to move it, resulting in an absence of coolant fl ow. The pumps need to be “burped” to avoid this situation.
Reduce pump speed using the rear dial (but not low enough to stop the pumps). While the pumps are running, gently tilt the ERM-3K4U unit in various directions until coolant begins moving. This will be indicated by the pump’s corresponding fl ow meter, located behind the reservoir. In some situations, the ERM-3K4U unit may need to be completely inverted to properly burp the pumps.
During regular operation, large air gaps should be restricted to the reservoir and not cause cavitational issues.
18
Filling & Maintenance
Adding Coolers & Maintenance
For preventative maintenance, Koolance recommends replacing the liquid coolant every 2 years. A Koolance “drain valve” (sold separately) can make that process easier.
The liquid should be immediately replaced if it ever becomes contaminated, unclear, or signifi cantly changes color. Although uncommon, biological growth and corrosion are substantially easier to prevent than clean-up.
If you are upgrading or removing a cooling block in your system, please follow the instructions below.
CAUTION: Any time a hose is disconnected with coolant still inside,
!
A binder clamp (available at offi ce supply stores) is helpful for keeping a hose folded while removing or adding coolers. Even so, pressure within the cooling system is such that liquid will not easily fl ow out unless relieved elsewhere-- for example, by opening the reservoir refi ll plug.
leaking can occur. Before doing so, it is highly recommended to remove all computer hardware and the power supply. It can also be benefi cial to keep a large towel directly beneath the work area (within the chassis) to absorb any free liquid.
Bend the hose directly before and after the section to be worked on. Place a binder
clamp on both bends, or tie them in this position to help avoid fl uid loss. There will
be some liquid exposed; do not operate on the cooling system in this manner near or above electronic hardware.
Radiator Performance
Over time, dust will accumulate on the radiator. While the cooling system may continue to operate in this condition, performance can decrease. To keep the system clean, check the radiator periodically (under the top cover) and use a can of electronics air cleaner or blower if necessary.
19
Troubleshooting
We hope your Koolance system will provide you with years of reliable cooling performance. To help avoid unnecessary RMA issues, we have prepared this list of possible operational problems, and their most common solutions.
1. The pumps do not appear to be operating properly...
The pumps need to be “burped” during the initial bleeding process to avoid this situation. Reduce pump speed using the rear dial (but not low enough to stop the pumps).
While the pumps are running, gently tilt the ERM-3K4U unit in various directions until coolant begins moving. This will be indicated by the pump’s corresponding fl ow meter, located behind the reservoir. The ERM-3K4U unit may need to be completely inverted to properly burp the pumps.
2. My temperatures seem too high...
Verify that the liquid coolers are making suffi cient contact with each component. Ensure thermal paste has been applied (but not excessively), that the CPU block’s protective bottom fi lm has been removed, and the CPU tension screw and/or bracket are positioned correctly (see the CPU Cooler’s Instructions). Also check that there are no blocks, twists, or crimps in the tubing system.
Finally, a dusty Radiator can also result in higher temperatures. Please see
Draining and Maintenance for more information.
3. When I adjust the temperature alarm settings, it skips number increments...
This is normal operation if your LED is set to display in Fahrenheit, because the temperature program is based on units Celsius. Some ºC values convert to decimal temperatures in ºF, or skip over them, and these can not be set by the program.
4. After the system has been on for awhile, the temperature alarm sounds...
Make sure the LED temperature is at or above your preset alarm temperature (default is 55ºC, 131ºF). If not, the audio alarm may be eminating from another location, such as your motherboard’s BIOS alarm. The Koolance LED tem­perature will fl ash whenever the cooling system alarm sounds.
If the alarm sounds within a few seconds after a cold boot-up, or the LED temperature does not reach the alarm preset, the control board/pump may
20
be malfunctioning. Please visit our support web page for more information.
Verify that the pump is operating (see Troubleshooting #1), and that liquid ow is present in the reservoir. Note that if the reservoir was over-fi lled during system assembly, this procedure is not possible since there will be no visible air gap.
5. My system has boot-up problems, or does not turn on...
The majority of these problems are not related to the Koolance case, but hardware or confi guration issues. In a new system, a problem with the RAM, motherboard, power supply, video card, processor, or monitor can cause the system to appear not to boot-up properly.
If the Koolance radiator fans do not spin, or if the front LED Display Panel does not light-up, check to see that the rear power switch is illuminated and turned on.
If further problems persist, you are likely having a separate hardware issue that is unrelated to the Koolance system.
6. My system appears to be leaking fl uid...
Since users are allowed to confi gure their own coolers and clamps, it is possible a connection was not properly sealed (however unlikely). If you can see liquid somewhere on the tubing, or at the bottom of the chassis, computer
components may need to be removed for a system test (see Testing & Filling).
If liquid should get onto another computer component, shut down the system, and remove the component. In many cases, the hardware may be fi ne after allowing it to dry. However, the system should not be operated until you have discovered where the leak is coming from and can repair the problem. Should the leak be situated somewhere in which it can not be easily repaired, please contact our Technical Department for further diagnostic information.
7. My computer’s BIOS gives me errors that there are no cooling fans attached...
Some motherboards will not boot, or may generate an error or alarm if no cooling fans are attached to the CPU or motherboard chipset power connectors. There is typically an option to disable these fan connections in BIOS, but you may have to boot-up with a fan attached initially to disable this setting. If the system is not booting due to this problem, clear the CMOS and try confi guring BIOS again.
21
8. The LED Display Panel shows 5 - 0 (“S - 0”) or 5 - 5 (“S - S”)...
Your Koolance LED display may specify if there is a problem with the cooling unit. Please use the following guide in determining the cause of a problem:
5 - 0 : Sensor open. This indicates that the temperature sensor may be dis-
connected or faulty. If the sensor can not be detected, the cooling system alarm will sound. The sensor will need to be reconnected inside the unit, or else replaced. Please visit our support web page for contact information.
5 - 5 : Sensor short. This indicates that the sensor may be faulty
or electrically bypassed. If the sensor is listed with an “S-S” status, the cooling system alarm will sound. The sensor will need to be re­placed. Please visit our support web page for contact information.
22
