MCP650™ 12 VDC Pump

Preamble As the computer industry continues to accelerates its pace towards implementing liquid cooling solutions, pumps have become a pivotal concern for the adoption of such systems in mission critical machines. Low or no maintenance, similar to that afforded by fans, and extended reliability are prerequisites for the successful transition from air to liquid cooling systems. Features Introducing the MCP650™ pump: a high reliability, high pressure industrial pump, featuring a 50,000 hour MTBF (5 year lifetime). Such reliability is afforded by the unique design of this pump, which contains only one moving part: the magnetically driven spherical impeller spins on a single ceramic bearing, thus extending the life of this pump beyond existing standards. The pump is completely plug-and-play, and connects directly to any computer power-supply through standard 4 pin power connectors. It's compact design, quiet and powerful motor make it ideally suited for heavy duty cooling in environments where space is at a premium. Summary of benefits 50,000 hours MTBF (Mean Time Between Failure) equivalent to 5 years lifetime. Superior 12 Volts DC convenience: plugs into the computer power supply The MCP650™ can be used with full confidence in any MP servers, and high-end workstations. Superior real world performance versus any aquarium pump we have tested to this date. The high pressure capability of the MCP650™ is particularly well adapted to the proliferation of daisy-chained liquid cooling devices in a single circuit: Multiple Processors, Chipset, Graphics, and Hard Drives. Compact Design. Quiet Operation thanks to brushless motor. ½" barb fittings. No maintenance when used with de-mineralized water, and anti-fungal additives (Our HydrX™ additive is recommended) Quick installation with adhesive neoprene pad, or permanent installation with thru-bolts.

Retention Mechanism The MCP650™ can either be installed with the built-in neoprene pad featuring a peel-off adhesive back, or permanently with thru-bolts as shown below.
