D-Tek dB-1 <PUMP> is not bad

[shikuva]

D-Tek dB-1 >>MCR22>> RES As you can see how it work in picture .
just bought it for my second loops for NB SB VGA<8800GTX> .

Problem with hole & fitting you can't tight it by hand .

[shikuva]

it not easy to fit like a Petra'sTech DDCT-01s Custom Delrin DDC Pump Top . Big different

[mummyz]

cool!

[Sparky]

Well if it screws in that tight at least you should be guaranteed no leaks

yap i cleaning the RAD now about 2 hours . no leak from pump .
the point i mean fitting<barb> very diffical to go in holes

This is a silly question, are you sure you have the threads matched between the pump and the fittings?

+1

or he's allignment is off. And it looks like its cutting into the threads sideways.

[Solarfall]

wait a sec i did not realize that d-tek actually manufactures water pumps.. sweet

Ok next time i am not share anything here . As you can see picture . came from
Petra's i did'nt do anything And fitting is D-tek . why it not match ????? .
fitting from same manufactor . Also i try with EK fitting but the same problem

then forgive me If i am STUPID man

[AuroraProject]

I think you took my post the wrong way, I wasn't trying to offend or suggest you were doing anything wrong. It just seems odd that you would have what appears to be plastic shavings around the pump threads if the fittings matched the pump.

Please share anything you want here, this is how we learn. I meant no harm.

The dB-1 seems to be a great little pump (from the testing that I've done); however, yeah, the tap job on the inlet and outlet is pretty pathetic--I actually ended up re-tapping the pump that I was testing with, just because I found it really annoying

I know not you falt . Belive me i trust use all the times if i have to be order WC.
but now in the end EK 8800GTX block can't find any webstore .

for now just only the tap job on the inlet and outlet is the problem .
for low price i happy with it .

Hi Shikuva.

I was just woundering why you've got that padding in the tank, is it there to fillter the water?

I've got two pumps and two rads to clean before I build my loops so I might copy the way you do it.

[virtualrain]

How is the noise and vibration of this little pump?

hey Op, same goes with me, dont take my comment offensively as well. I was mearly pointing out a concern, not a flame like aurora.

If the threads come bad like that, and alex had to rethread it. :X


But im glad to see the pump is working for ya.

[JeffnWV]

I have 2 of these in series running my second loop. the sound and vibration of both together are about the same as one ddc Ultra w/ PT...I use the ddc ultra for my main loop. I also had issues with the threads but found that using notable force pushing the barb in straight made the difference...(the pump threads like to make the barbs go in and cross thread)

I like this little pump... and being submersable, it's great for flushing and filling the system too

[Kayin]

That's very interesting, can you explain how you have your pumps set up?

[JeffnWV]

I'm not sure I follow your question...

Loop run is as follows:

Pumps> Radiator> NB> SB> Pumps ( i also have mem sinks pulling off of the second loop)

[Kayin]

NM, I figured out how they were run. You've got them in serial, but I thought there were more ins/outs than there are...

yap now i creaning the RAD . in picture i use filter for aquamarien any store have that . Cheap & just for test how the pump work . for second loop i try
to use this pump for low flow . I think should be ok for NB SB 8800GTX block

so sorry is i miss take some thing because MY ENGLISH VERY BAD hopefully this tread can give information to buy the pump <DC-1>

[shikuva]

How is the noise and vibration of this little pump?

I am not heer anything when the pump work . in soon when RAD clean compleat. for this month i spend money a lot over my limit . Because just bought 8800GTX second hand about 470 USD and order many stuff for WC
in soon i will share my case MOD in here too ^ ^.

[shikuva]

JeffnWV i like you idea so much ^ ^.

Please do you have problem same me ? <plastic pump for push fitting>

thank you

[JeffnWV]

yes the pump threads are not fitting install friendly, Have to be sure that they start straight.. VERY easy to cross thread with this pump

[JeffnWV]

Alex,
do you think it would hurt the performance of this pump if we took out the plastic flow reducer thing down in the inlet? It's likely there to distribute the incoming water but seems like it should flow better without that in there... It reminds me of those things they send in faucets that airate the water and reduce the stream....

DO NOT remove that piece! As I recall, that's the support for the pump's front ceramic bearing (same story with most Iwaki & Eheim pumps... and the 50Z). It goes without saying that the pump will not work properly if that piece is removed.
