5. Setup Instructions
5.1 Fan Mounting
- Identify the desired mounting location in your PC case or on your radiator. Ensure proper airflow direction (typically, the side with the fan motor label is the exhaust side).
- Align the fan with the screw holes.
- Fissate u ventilatore cù e viti di muntatura furnite. Ùn stringhjite micca troppu.
5.2 Wire-Free Splicing (Connecting Multiple Fans)
The ZK-120 fans feature a wire-free splicing design for easy connection of multiple units.
- Take two ZK-120 fans. Locate the male and female splicing connectors on the sides of the fan frames.
- Carefully align and push the connectors together until they click into place, forming a secure physical and electrical connection.
- Repeat this process for additional fans if you are installing more than two.


5.3 Cunnessioni di cable
After splicing the fans, you will have a single set of cables to connect to your motherboard or controller.
- Connettore PWM à 4 pin: Connect the 4-pin PWM cable from the fan assembly to an available 4-pin fan header on your motherboard. This allows for fan speed control.
- ARGB 3-PIN Connector: Connect the 3-pin 5V ARGB cable from the fan assembly to an available 3-pin 5V ARGB header on your motherboard or a dedicated ARGB controller. Ensure it is a 5V header, not a 12V RGB header, to prevent damage.


6. Operating Instructions
6.1 Controlu di a velocità di u fan
The ZK-120 fans utilize PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) for speed control. Once connected to a 4-pin PWM header on your motherboard, you can control the fan speed through your motherboard's BIOS/UEFI settings or dedicated software provided by your motherboard manufacturer (e.g., ASUS Fan Xpert, MSI Dragon Center, GIGABYTE SIV).
6.2 Cuntrollu di l'illuminazione ARGB
For customizable lighting effects, ensure the 3-pin 5V ARGB connector is properly connected. You can then control the lighting via:
- Software di a scheda madre: Use your motherboard's ARGB software (e.g., ASUS Aura Sync, MSI Mystic Light Sync, GIGABYTE RGB Fusion, ASRock Polychrome Sync) to select various lighting modes, colors, and effects.
- External ARGB Controller: If your motherboard lacks a 5V 3-pin ARGB header, you may use a separate ARGB controller (not included) to manage the lighting.

7. Mantenimentu
7.1 Pulizia
Una pulizia regulare aiuta à mantene prestazioni ottimali è allunga a durata di vita di i vostri ventilatori.
- Spegne u vostru PC è scollegatelu da a fonte di alimentazione prima di pulisce.
- Use compressed air to gently blow dust off the fan blades and frame.
- For stubborn dust, use a soft, dry cloth or a cotton swab. Avoid using liquid cleaners directly on the fan.
7.2 Bearing Maintenance
The ZK-120 fans are equipped with FDB (Fluid Dynamic Bearings), which are designed to be maintenance-free and offer a long operational life. No lubrication or special maintenance is required for the bearings.
8. Risoluzione di prublemi
8.1 U ventilatore ùn gira micca
- Verificate a cunnessione di l'energia: Ensure the 4-pin PWM connector is securely plugged into a functional fan header on your motherboard.
- Impostazioni BIOS: Verify that the fan header is enabled in your motherboard's BIOS/UEFI settings and that the fan curve is set appropriately (e.g., not set to 0 RPM at low temperatures).
- Cable Splicing: If using multiple fans, ensure all wire-free splicing connections are firm and correctly aligned.
8.2 L'illuminazione ARGB ùn funziona micca o hè incorretta
- Verificate a cunnessione ARGB: Ensure the 3-pin 5V ARGB connector is securely plugged into a 5V 3-pin ARGB header on your motherboard or controller. Do NOT connect to a 12V 4-pin RGB header, as this will damage the LEDs.
- Cuntrolla di u Software: Make sure your motherboard's ARGB software is installed and updated. Check if the lighting effects are enabled and configured correctly within the software.
- Funzionalità di u Controller: If using an external ARGB controller, ensure it is powered and functioning correctly.
8.3 Rumore eccessivu
- Muntamentu: Ensure the fan is securely mounted and not vibrating against the case or radiator. Check that all mounting screws are tightened appropriately.
- Ostaculi: Verify that no cables or other components are touching the fan blades.
- Accumulazione di polvere: Clean the fan blades and frame as described in the Maintenance section.
- Velocità di u fan: If the noise is due to high RPM, adjust the fan speed curve in your motherboard's BIOS/UEFI or software to a lower setting.
9. Cunsiglii d'utilizatori
- Flussu d'aria ottimale: When installing multiple fans, pay attention to airflow direction. Typically, fans should draw cool air into the case and exhaust hot air out. The ZK-120 features reverse cooling blades, which can be useful for specific airflow configurations.
- Gestione di Cable: Utilize the wire-free splicing feature to minimize cable clutter, especially in builds with multiple fans. Use the segmented extension cable for connections across different sections of your case.
- Personalizazione ARGB: Experiment with different lighting effects and colors using your motherboard's software to match your system's aesthetic or create unique visual themes.
