HOLY THREAD RESSURECTION BATMAN. That aside.
Anyone got any internal shots of this pump?

How is bumping a thread from ages ago any different from creating a new thread with a similar topic?
Bumping a thread is bringing information already shared previously instead of others re-posting something that was already stated and usually someone is to lazy to search for.
Look through the thread and see what was already said, compare it with newer threads and see if there is consistent or differing information/knowledge share then and now.
good point.Quote:

Old threads also contain old data, so its not always wise to go by very old threads. :up:

Duly noted. However since the sin has already been committed hows about them internal shots.Quote:

I couild swear there were pics around here some where, if not I guess I could reach down to my right and pull one of the pumps out, get off my arse, find a digital cam 4 feet to my left, eventually dig up a screw driver 2feet to my right........endure the torture of un screwing the face place of the pump.Quote:

You dont HAVE to...
It was sort of a curiosity thing to find out what all the hype was about and to notice the differences between that and lets say mcp655.
Diddnt think this thread would get so much attention.
I know this is a thread ressurection and i think a 1st post so this will look really bad but i bought an Iwaki RD-30 and a Meanwell S-150-24,
I used the pot on the Meanwell to undervolt it as far as it can gobut on my voltmeter its saying 19.82V which as far as i know too high to create a good heat dump/flow rate ratio,
Is there any way i can get my MW down to 18V? I tried putting resistors in series with the pump but they fried even high wattage ones, is there any way to replace that pot for one that will allow me to get down to 18v? at the moment AFAIK it has a 1K pot, does anyone know what sort of wattage and rating pot to get to get it down further? a 2k one should do but its just the exact specs im worried about, i dont want too much heat generated over the pot either, rapid electronic should do what im looking for but i have no idea what im looking for wattage wise,
I know thats a lot of info but i really need your help guys, iv been building my Lian-Li PC-343 for 2 years now and have just hit one problem after another, ill post up pics soon if you like,
Any help is greatly appreciated :)
Thanks guys!
If you're willing to set the Meanwell aside, Alphacool has this available now:
http://www.performance-pcs.com/catal...ducts_id=27034
It allows you to set the voltage between 12V and 24V in 3V increments. Probably pretty handy for the RD-30. No idea about the quality of it though, so YMMV..
I do like that thing a lot...
It would be very handy though i doubt it has the capacity to run an RD-30, its a pretty high wattage piece of machinery, I like the fact i wouldnt need to also put an extra kettle plug into the back of my lian-li to get it to start up with the computer,
Does anyone know if this could run an RD-30 and not srew it over, i think youll understand my worry as its not a cheap pump
Thanks anyway man!
Dunno, but Alphacool sell it as a package with this pump and it states 17W
http://www.alphacool.com/shop/Pumps/...lts--3317.html
Don't know anything about the Iwaki's power draw, but maybe that will help you..
Found this graph:
http://martin.skinneelabs.com/img/IwakiRD30PQ-18v.png
So depending on the load its from ~25-38W
If you mount a 90mm fan at the back of the pump then heat dump goes down considerably. Also, the ac120 pumps are capable of much higher output than the 24vdc models. Like others have posted it depends on model numbers. My panworld/blueline does 480GPH @ 13.5'.Quote:

<shrug> Dunno then. All I can say is that PPCs does offer that Alphacool power supply with the RD-30 if you buy it as a package, so I assume they think it must be adequate to run the Iwaki, but I have no idea if that's true or not. Like I said, YMMV with this, but for only $30 it might be worth a shot..
Im not in a position to change pumps now, i spent £120 on this pump and theres no returning it now,
Well if they sell it with the RD-30 it must run it, ill see if i can get one here in the UK, its a pain ordering stuff from the US
EDIT:
While im at it, im deciding on a res, i have 1/2' ID tubing (Tygon) and i want to know whats the least restrictive res, i really want a tube one like the EK Res the V2 one but aparrently is a 1/4' bore in it but i guess with my pump i should have a for of restriction to make it run smoother?
EDIT #2:
Did more research and went for the EK Res, i dont really need to worry about flow rates with this pump, now just gotta figure out where to mount the damn thing and what PSU to use, if i can find that one in the UK ill buy it,
Pics to follow :)
There is another option for powering the Iwaki.
This should work the same. You can get it completely assembled through the drop down menu if your not that good or brave with electronics.
wont work WL.Quote:

The RD-30 needs a min startup amperage higher then that.
Thats why there was a whole debate on if the S150-24 was even good enough for the pump.
Hey OP, Skinnee has my entire RD-30 package with a relay switch.
I even have a Slappy res for it, so you should ask him for pictures, or find it yourself.
Then why the hell do they show it hooked up to an Iwaki in the pictures? :confused::mad:Quote:

i have no idea.. ima have to tell hank about that later.Quote:

Possible an RD-20, but definitely not a RD-30.
As i said, we got into a HUGH debate on that when the RD-30 was the Must have Rolls Royce pumps.
The debate was that a S150-24 wasnt enough and could cause start up damage.
If i recall you need about 10amps startup.
Cam im talking about startup.Quote:

Thats what i thought, plus it doesnt output at 18v which is what i really want, the easiest option is to mod the pot on my meanwell i think?
I dont have a problem with soldering or electronics iv wired and soldered the fan controller etc to suit my trigger switches, iv done a lot of fiddly stuff with IC 4026 counting chips for my technology course so this should be a breeze, anyone know of any good 40W pots that would suit the need, i guess i could use V=IR to work out what resistance i need too?
