4. Iestatīšana un instalēšana
Before beginning installation, ensure your system is powered off and unplugged. Refer to your motherboard manual for specific CPU socket information. The fans are pre-installed on the radiator for simplified setup.
4.1. Sagatavojiet mātesplati
- Nosakiet sava centrālā procesora ligzdas veidu (Intel vai AMD).
- For Intel LGA1700/1851 sockets, install the appropriate standoffs through the backplate screws from the front side of the motherboard.
- Attach the Intel mounting brackets to the standoffs.

4.2. Radiatora un ventilatoru uzstādīšana
- Determine the optimal mounting location for the 240mm radiator in your PC case (typically top or front). Ensure your case width is greater than 250mm for proper fit.
- Secure the radiator with the pre-installed fans to your chosen mounting location using the provided screws.

4.3. Install the Pump/Water Block
- Apply thermal paste to the CPU if not pre-applied on the cold plate.
- Carefully place the pump/water block onto the CPU, aligning it with the mounting brackets.
- Secure the pump/water block by tightening the four nuts evenly until firm pressure is applied. Do not overtighten.

4.4. Pievienojiet kabeļus
- Connect the 4-pin PWM fan cables to the CPU_FAN or AIO_PUMP headers on your motherboard. The Y-type cable allows connecting both fans to a single header.
- Connect the pump power cable (3-pin or 4-pin) to an appropriate pump header (e.g., AIO_PUMP or PUMP_FAN) on your motherboard.
- Connect the 5V Addressable RGB (ARGB) cable from the fans and pump to a compatible 5V ARGB header on your motherboard. Ensure correct pin alignment to avoid damage.

5. Lietošanas instrukcijas
5.1. PWM Intelligent Control
The Thermalright Aqua Elite 240 ARGB V2 fans and pump utilize PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) technology. This allows your motherboard to automatically adjust the fan and pump speeds based on the CPU temperature, ensuring optimal cooling performance while minimizing noise levels. You can configure fan curves through your motherboard's BIOS/UEFI settings or dedicated software.
5.2. ARGB apgaismojuma vadība
The cooler features Addressable RGB (ARGB) lighting on both the fans and the pump head. This lighting can be controlled and synchronized using compatible motherboard software (e.g., ASUS Aura Sync, MSI Mystic Light Sync, Gigabyte RGB Fusion, ASRock Polychrome Sync) or a dedicated ARGB controller (if included or purchased separately). Ensure the 5V ARGB cable is correctly connected to your motherboard's ARGB header.

6. Apkope
Regulāra apkope palīdz nodrošināt šķidruma dzesētāja ilgmūžību un optimālu veiktspēju.
- Putekļu tīrīšana: Periodiski tīriet radiatora ribas un ventilatora lāpstiņas ar saspiestu gaisu, lai noņemtu uzkrājušos putekļus. Putekļi var kavēt gaisa plūsmu un samazināt dzesēšanas efektivitāti.
- Pārbaudiet caurules: Occasionally check the liquid tubes for any signs of kinks, damage, or leaks. The tubes are protected by polymer sleeves for low liquid evaporation, extending the cooler's lifespan.
- Ventilatora gultņi: The S-FDB bearings are designed for long-term stability and quiet operation. No specific maintenance is required for the bearings themselves.

7. Traucējummeklēšana
If you encounter issues with your Thermalright Aqua Elite 240 ARGB V2, try the following troubleshooting steps:
- Nav strāvas/Ventilatori negriežas/Sūknis nedarbojas:
• Ensure all power cables (4-pin PWM for fans, 3/4-pin for pump) are securely connected to the correct headers on your motherboard.
• Check your motherboard's BIOS/UEFI settings to ensure fan and pump headers are enabled and configured correctly. - Augsta centrālā procesora temperatūra:
• Verify that the pump/water block is securely mounted to the CPU with adequate pressure.
• Ensure thermal paste was applied correctly and evenly.
• Check for any obstructions to airflow through the radiator. Clean any dust buildup.
• Confirm that the fans are spinning and oriented correctly to push air through the radiator. - ARGB apgaismojums nedarbojas/nepareizas krāsas:
• Ensure the 5V ARGB cable is correctly connected to a compatible 5V ARGB header on your motherboard. Do NOT connect to a 12V RGB header.
• Check your motherboard's ARGB software or external controller settings to ensure lighting is enabled and configured as desired.
• Verify that the ARGB cable is not damaged. - Neparasts troksnis:
• If you hear a gurgling sound, it may indicate air bubbles in the loop. Gently tilt your PC case to help move air bubbles to the radiator.
• If fans are noisy, check for obstructions or loose mounting. The S-FDB bearings are designed for quiet operation, but excessive dust can cause noise.
