actually looks a lil different now as theres the aquero and ssd and some other bits and bobs but once this is added to the loop along with flow meter and temp sensor and so on i will put some better pics up.

love the aqua blocks. will stick with them from now on.

[roamin]

well i had a small change today, changed over to new hose and added a aquacomputer flow meter to my aquero. rebuild system/loop than turn it on to find water coming out. arrgghhhhhhh

fitting on the flow meter wasnt even close to tight lol. was distracted and forgotten about it. very lucky.

is 98 l/hour a good flow? im not sure what the ample flow is.

also i think i have changed my mind about a custom rad stand for my 3x rx360 rads. instead of a stand im thinking about mounting the rads to the side of my table, cut out a nice size square and slap them in there. no room wasted, no dickie stand kicking around in the way. seems like the go to me.

tkr have lots of diff types of rad stands that will work for that plan

have u set the flow sensors impulses to 169?
also best to have it lie flat or it can make a ticking noise
that sounds like about 1.6L/min which is a bit low
recommended is around 3.7L/min but anything over 2.2 is ok imho

Hmmmm wander why mine is so low. Aquero only allows 74hz through the pump where I used to get 88hz when the pump wasn't on the aquero. I may have to disconnect it from the aquero to get more flow.

Don't need need a tkr stand as I machined a new player up on Saturday that will mount to the table than the rads will mount to the plate than jobs done. Just need to work out how I'm going to wire up the 9 fans to work on the aquero plus the 3 fans I'm currently running on the existing rad. 12 fans 4 rads. May have to drop one rad.

I thought my flow was low. Actually I have just realised I have it before the pump not after the pump. Maybe there in lies the problem.

[Creekin]

the asxt automatically adjusts the frequency based on the load
don't worry to much about the hz, its irrelevant
so is the flow sensors posi in the loop
flow equalizes over the loop

i have noticed a few ppl not setting up the flow sensor with the correct value of 169 (or 158 according to martin)
http://martinsliquidlab.org/2012/01/...ensor-meter/6/

i just used fan splitters to run 8 fans off my aquaero and the 9th of the asxt
but the aquaero can handle more than 2 per channel, depending the load of course
3 per channel for 12 total should be no problem imho, with a crapload of splitters...

BUT, having said that
if you are running low fpi rads, then you should be running them with low rpm fans that dont need to be controlled by the aquaero, as they will always run at 100% and remain silent

[roamin]

Well the higher the Hz higher the flow. Shoggy has said himself the aquero won't go over 74hz. Why I don't know. So that there's holding back flow straight away

From 60 Hz to 74 Hz there was a good difference of flow. So 88hz I used to run is a big difference.

Also yes I have been running 169 on the flow meter so not that holding me back

Also fans I bought all new nb 1450rpm and selling of all my get 1850rpm.

wow, can't believe I missed this, nice work
