Reservoir en pompencombinatie BitsPower CR280 van BitsPower — acryl reservoir met geïntegreerde pomp (BPM-WTCR280)

The BitsPower CR280 Reservoir and Pump Combo is an acrylic reservoir with an integrated pump designed for custom PC liquid cooling loops. This compact single-unit solution combines coolant storage and circulation to simplify loop layout and reduce external tubing complexity. It is intended for use in desktop enthusiast and workstation systems that require a reliable feed and return point for the cooling circuit.

Advantages

The integrated design reduces the number of separate components required, lowering assembly time and potential leak points. Acrylic construction offers clear visibility of coolant level and flow, making maintenance and monitoring straightforward. The unit’s compact footprint helps free internal case space compared with separate reservoirs and pumps, while the pump integration ensures steady coolant circulation tailored to system demands.

Suitable for

• Custom water-cooling loops in gaming PCs and workstations
• Compact builds where space-saving components are needed
• Systems requiring a combined reservoir and pump for simplified installation
• Environments where visual monitoring of coolant level is preferred

Key specifications

• Material: transparent acrylic reservoir body for visual coolant monitoring
• Integrated pump: built-in circulation pump to move coolant through the loop
• Form factor: combined reservoir-pump unit for compact installation
• Fluid compatibility: designed for standard PC coolant liquids compatible with acrylic and pump materials
• Mounting: designed for internal case mounting or bracket-based installation depending on chassis compatibility

How to use

Install the combo unit in a suitable location inside the chassis or on a compatible bracket, ensuring secure mounting and proper orientation for inlet and outlet ports. Connect tubing from the radiator outlets and CPU/GPU block returns to the corresponding ports, following your loop order (typically pump outlet → radiator → component → reservoir return). Fill the reservoir with an appropriate coolant, bleed air by running the pump at low speed until air bubbles are removed, and check for leaks around fittings and seals. Observe coolant level and flow through the acrylic body during initial startup and after the first few hours of operation.

Recommendations

The unit should be used with coolant fluids that are explicitly compatible with acrylic and the pump materials. During initial fill and maintenance, keep the system powered only to the pump (using a PSU jumper or motherboard header with safeguards) to prevent running other components while bleeding air. Periodically inspect fittings, coolant level, and clarity, and replace coolant according to manufacturer guidance or every 6–12 months depending on coolant type and environmental conditions.
