EKWB Fits Pump and Reservoir into Single Optical Drive Bay
EKWB has built a new reservoir and water pump combo unit that fits in a single 5.25" bay.
EKWB has announced a new product – the EK-SBAY DDC 3.2. This product is a combination of two: a water pump and a reservoir.
The reservoir can reside in just a single 5.25" optical drive bay, even while holding the pump. The pump included is an EK-DDC 3.2 PWM pump, which is a 12 V water pump that is PWM controllable. This allows you to run the pump at lower speeds for reduced noise and vibration, though there's more. The pump is also mounted to the reservoir using an anti-vibration rubber mounting system, making it possible to achieve some very low noise and vibration levels.
The reservoir is made from POM acetal and comes with a clear acrylic front plate for easy visibility of the water level.
Included in the packaging is the reservoir/pump combo, mounting accessories, as well as a small beaker that can be used for filling up the reservoir.
Pricing is set at $192.73, and the unit is immediately available directly from EKWB.
