A modular reservoir series

The HEATKILLER® Tube series is a modular collection of high-quality expansion tanks built around a glass tube made of borosilicate, and Watercool says it has many outstanding features, which are listed below. Being modular means each part can be exchanged separately: the base for a DDC pump can later be changed to a D5 pump compatible base, for example.

Borosilicate glass tube

For the construction of expansion tanks, Watercool considers borosilicate glass the best material currently available, and it chose to rely on it. It offers high chemical and thermal resistance, low thermal expansion and a scratch-resistant quality: in Watercool's words, ideal conditions for creating a high-quality expansion tank.

What the loop needs

Add a DDC pump, sold separately: remove the pump body with its four torx screws, since only the pump motor (rotor and stator) is used. Put the reservoir on its side, take out the four M4x35 DIN956 screws on the bottom and set the motor into the pump cover, with the cable through the small lateral notch. With the O-ring back in place, the cover and pump are screwed onto the reservoir. Each G1/4 port you use takes one of your fittings.

Notes

• The lid opens with a quarter turn counterclockwise, so the large filling mouth needs no tools.
• Take care not to squeeze or otherwise damage the pump cable when installing or removing the pump.
• Check all seals before the first start-up; a reservoir with squeezed or damaged O-rings must not be used. Drain it and take it out of the loop before any alteration.
• The glass tube O-rings come in 4 mm and 5 mm to compensate for length tolerance; reuse the strength you found in your reservoir.
