Common Applications
The CP-PARX-X is the stand-alone version of Bykski's silent 10W PARX pump, designed for compact custom loops with a single 240mm or 360mm radiator. It runs from 12V DC at 1.5A through a 4-pin Molex connector, with a 4-pin PWM input governing speed from 1800 to 3000 RPM, delivering up to 330L/H of flow and 3 meters of head. The pump core uses a ceramic shaft rated up to 50,000 hours. The body measures roughly 72.5mm by 83mm with a 78mm diameter, combining a PMMA top with an aluminum-alloy armor shell, and exposes G1/4 threaded inlet and outlet ports.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What loops is the CP-PARX-X recommended for?
A: Low-configuration loops with a single 240mm or 360mm radiator, or modest CPU-plus-GPU paths. For two or more radiators or heavy multi-block loops, a D5 or DDC class pump is recommended.
Q: How is it powered and controlled?
A: 12V DC at 1.5A through a 4-pin Molex connector. Speed is set via a 4-pin PWM signal between 1800 and 3000 RPM.
Q: What are the rated performance numbers?
A: Maximum flow of approximately 330L/H, maximum head of 3 meters, and a ceramic-shaft lifespan of up to 50,000 hours of continuous duty.
Q: What are the physical dimensions and port size?
A: Approximately 72.5mm x 83mm with a 78mm diameter, PMMA top over an aluminum-alloy armor shell, with G1/4 threaded inlet and outlet ports.
Q: Can the pump run dry or with aluminum radiators?
A: No. The impeller is lubricated by the coolant, so dry-running voids the warranty. The wet path is copper, so the rest of the loop must be copper or brass to avoid galvanic corrosion.
