When connecting the MCW60-T to your computer power supply, you must carefully consider the existing requirements
of other devices connected to the +12V line. Connecting to an underpowered PSU unit will definitely damage the power
supply, and/or starve the other components in the system. As quality of the power supplies on the market varies widely,
we can only recommend that you choose your PSU among the best quality units available on the market.
A unit featuring minimum 600 Watts (peak) and 38 Amps (peak) available on the 12 Volt rail is advisable.
Connecting TEC wires to the power supply:
Use the provided euro-style wire connector as shown in fig 1 below, or a similar device with a current rating of at least
12 amps. Connect red wire from TEC module to +12V of the PSU (Yellow wire), and black wire to black wire:
Figure 1
If you need wiring extensions: use 16 gage stranded wire. Connect the extension to the existing wires with terminal
splices, or solder the butts, and insulate with shrink tubing.

Never run a thermoelectric module without coolant flowing in the circuit. This will result in catastrophic failure of
the cooling element, and may cause any/all of the following:
Tubing to burst open due to coolant overheating
Permanent failure of the Peltier module
Permanent damage to the CPU and/or motherboard due to excess heat
WARNING! Wires from the thermoelectric module do get hot (this is normal). Make sure that the wires do not touch
devices that are heat sensitive, such as vinyl tubes for example. Heat from the wires may cause the vinyl to deform,
and/or burst.
5. Hydraulic Installation
• The inlet and outlet are interchangeable with respect to flow direction.
• Coolant: use of distilled water is mandatory. Swiftech's HydrX coolant is recommended as an antifungal,
and corrosion inhibitor.
• The MCW60 is shipped with 2 sets of fittings in the US: 1/2” barbs, and 3/8” barbs, and an additional set of
1/4” barbs in Europe.
• Tighten each fitting until the flange of the fitting mates with the ledge of the water-block o-ring
groove, then lock it by adding ¼ to ½ turn. Use of a tool (5/8 or 14mm flat wrench) is recommended.
• Your MCWS60-T is now ready to use.
