## Summary description

The Alphacool Core Distro Plate Pump & reservoir features a sleek black and transparent design made from acrylic, aluminum, ceramic, and synthetic materials. Measuring 125 mm in width, 240 mm in depth, and 93.3 mm in height, it is ideal for custom water cooling setups, providing efficient liquid circulation and aesthetic RGB lighting.

## Long description

The Alphacool Core Distro Plate combines an integrated reservoir with a pre-installed VPP Apex pump in a black transparent acrylic housing, designed for custom PC water-cooling loops. Available in 240 mm and 360 mm lengths with left or right pump-top orientation, the unit simplifies planning, installation and maintenance of complex loops while providing visible coolant flow and digital aRGB illumination.
Advantages
The Core Distro Plate uses chrome-plated brass G1/4" connectors that are recessed into the acrylic and secured with two-part fittings and O-rings to reduce risk of leakage. Push-mounting hardware is included for tool-free attachment to a case panel or radiator, enabling quick removal for service. The integrated Apex VPP pump features a ceramic shaft and relocated motor coils for quieter, more stable operation and lower power consumption. Built-in digitally addressable aRGB LEDs allow board- or controller-based lighting control.
Suitable for
Custom CPU and GPU water-cooling loops
PC cases or radiators with compatible mounting positions
Systems requiring visible coolant and aRGB lighting

Connect the VPP Apex pump to the power supply via the SATA connector and connect the 4-pin PWM cable to a motherboard fan header or external controller to enable pump speed control and RPM monitoring. Fill the reservoir and bleed the loop following standard custom loop procedures, using the side drain port for controlled draining.

For reliable operation, use compatible G1/4" fittings and follow the motherboard or controller documentation when connecting aRGB and PWM headers. Perform regular visual inspections of the acrylic reservoir and maintenance of the loop components to ensure leak-free operation.
