TESTING THE LOOP

To ensure the installation of EK components was successful, we
recommend you perform a 24-hour leak test.

When your loop is complete and filled with coolant, connect the
pump to a PSU outside your system. Do not connect power to any
of the other components. Turn on the PSU and let the pump run
continuously.

Inspect all parts of the loop, and in case the coolant leaks, fix the issue
and repeat the testing process. To prevent possible damage, please
ensure that all hardware is dry before the system is powered on.
