The main function of a reservoir in a water cooling loop is to offer space for expansion of the coolant, deaerate the loop and also help with initial filling. This is where the innovations from the developers at Phobya comes into play: An internal channel system helps with deaeration to ensure all air bubbles being removed from the coolant.
Even with very powerful pumps this reservoir is able to remove the air bubbles from the system. The filling of the reservoir can be done easily and quickly by removing the 3/8" screw plug after pulling the reservoir out of the drive bay. We recommend using a funnel for filling.
An even easier solution is connecting a Fillport which will allow filling without pulling the reservoir from the case.
The small details are what makes this reservoir great: Five G1/4" threads give many connection possibilities for maximum versatility.
