AC D5 DRY Pump Test

Freitag, 16. Juli 2021, 13:52

I am just prepping my new dual loops prior to full case installation. I currently have the AQ D5.

Ass I understand it, I can test the D5 (DRY) by plugging in the molex and 'removing' the magnetic impeller, I can then watch the spindle turning. Even with this method is there a time limit on how long and what is it that causes an issue running dry *if the magnetic impeller is removed*?

Also @shoggy/AQ please start shipping to the UK again. :thumbup:

Thanks,

J.

What is the point of a test without the only moving part?
If you want to test your pump screw it to an AGB or a top with connected AGB and connect a hose to the output of the top/AGB and connect it to the input, now add water and you have the perfect pump test setup.

Thanks but thats not practical. However, I have just checked my spare D5 and realised it was my understanding of its working operation that was wrong. I had assumed the shaft with the ceramic button turned so I could monitor that, on closer inspection that doesnt move, its just a mounting from which the impeller rotates and is powered via the internal magnets. So yes I need the impeller. i will just do a standard 2 second test.

Thanks,
