Description:

The patent pending MCRES-MICRO is a small form factor reservoir designed to operate quietly and reliably with high flow pumps such as Swiftech's MCP350 and MCP655 models (3/8" and 1/2" lines). The patent pending design features an angled baffle forcing the turbulent flow at the bottom of the reservoir. This allows it to function without air entrainment at low fluid levels and affords extended usage without refills of approximately 2 years.

One of the problems encountered with high-flow pumps is that the powerful jet created at the return line generates a high amount of turbulence and bubbles inside the reservoir. In a shallow reservoir, such as those used in 3 1/2 or 5 1/4" bays, the water sloshing inside the container makes annoying sounds, and at low levels bubbles tend to be entrained back into the system, reducing cooling efficiency. Even when sloshing sounds and turbulence are properly controlled such as in Swiftech's MCRES-1000 for instance, refills in shallow reservoirs tend to be more frequent as the fluid level operating range (distance between minimum level and maximum level) is much shorter.  The MCRES-MICRO eliminates all these problems.

Features:

• Adjustable brackets: Greatly facilitate installation and are adjustable in all 3 axis.
• Small size:  4 x 3 x 1.5" (100x76x38mm).  Can be installed in most systems including many small form factor cases without sacrificing a CD-ROM bay.
• Separation from pump:  Can fit in smaller spaces than integrated pump/reservoir setups.
• Anchoring ears and Velco pads:  Easy to install against case panels, either with the supplied Velcro pads, or permanently with screws.
• Specially designed for high-flow pumps: No annoying sloshing sounds and completely free of any air entrainment even at the lowest possible operating levels.
• Patent pending baffle design: Approximately 24 month of continuous operations without refills (*) in 3/8" systems, and 18 months in 1/2" systems.
• Cosmetic appeal: Transparent acrylic panel construction.
• Built in reliability:  Stress related cracks found in other acrylic constructions is eliminated by design: straight NPSM threads do not induce stress compared to NPT (tapered) threads.
• 1/2" and 3/8" barbs included: Universal use with high-flow systems.
• Fillport cap and NPSM barb fittings with O-ring:  O-ring seal provides superior reliability.
• Recommended cooling fluid:  Distilled water + 5% Swiftech's Hydrx
