I purchased one if these for another project, but no power wiring info is given. It is marketed for liquid cooled PC. I assume it would plug into PC somewhere, but am unfamiliar with the connectors provided. They appear to be parallel wired, offering connection option. Apparently this forum does not allow images but here is Amazon source. I can send connector photo if you give me help or address.

Looking at the comments (I couldn't find a manual), it looks like it is powered by a molex connector. It has a pwm fan connector to report flow rate back to the motherboard.

No manuals or docs provided. No apparent customer service either. Yecch.

Since I am really just looking for what are the connector pin outs and voltages, I will try to describe the mating connectors and perhaps you can tell me that information.

There is a 5 wire flat ribbon cable out of the device. Three wires are tied together at pin 3 of the smaller 3 pin connector which is 5.1 x 8.1 mm with exterior orientation guides about 6 mm apart. Its female pins (sockets) have about 3 mm spacing, and pins 1 & 2 are connected to pins 1 & 2 of a second larger 4 pin connector. This larger connector is 23.2mm x 8.2mm, and those male or female pins have 4.3 mm spacing. The larger connector has a "square D" overall shape, and provide the ability to "stack" similar connector on the same PC motherboard connector. Hard to explain when you can't attach pictures!

If either of these connector descriptions match the fan or other common PC accessory power connectors, can you provide those voltage and pin outs?

Thanks
