Installation


To install the Alphacool Eisbaer LT 240, you will need to start by preparing the pump block for mounting. Simply slide the proper mounting brackets into place on the pump until they click together. Then slide the spring over the proper mounting screw followed by a washer. Once done, use the included nut to secure the mounting screw to the bracket. Now is also a good time to attach the fans to the radiator.


Secure the radiator to the case. This will make mounting the block a bit easier. Now, position the backplate on the motherboard in preparation for securing the block.


At this point, apply some thermal paste and secure the pump to the motherboard. Once complete, make sure everything is plugged in and configured as neccessary for optimal operation.

I would rate the Alphacool Eisbaer LT 240 an 8 on a scale of 1 (hardest) to 10 (easiest) in terms of Installation. While the process is very straightforward and simple, the backplate design and how it's secured may require a bit of finesse during installation. Alphacool does provide 3M adhesive on the backplate to secure it. If you decide not to use it due to frequent removal, it will be a bit tricker, which is something that is solved on competing products that use standoffs to secure the backplate to the board.
