PSU Quick Test (Before Installation)

To verify the power supply is functioning correctly before connecting it to your system:

  1. Forbered et stykke ståltråd eller en papirclips.
  2. Insert the wire into pins 3 and 4 of the 24-pin ATX connector. Ensure the 24P connector clips are facing upward for correct pin identification.
  3. Plug in the power cord to the PSU and then to a wall outlet.
  4. If the PSU fan spins normally, it indicates the power supply can be powered on and started up properly.

5. Betjeningsvejledning

The METALFISH Flex Power Supply operates automatically once installed and connected. It provides stable DC power to your computer components. No specific user interaction is required during normal operation.

  • Tænd/sluk: The PSU will power on and off with your computer system.
  • Ventilatorbetjening: The integrated PWM fan will adjust its speed based on the PSU's temperature to maintain optimal cooling and minimize noise.
  • Input bindtage: The PSU supports a wide input voltage range of 90~264V AC, automatically adapting to different regional power standards (50Hz/60Hz).

6. Vedligeholdelse

Korrekt vedligeholdelse sikrer strømforsyningens levetid og optimale ydeevne.

  • Rensning: Periodically clean the exterior of the power supply and its fan grill using a soft, dry cloth. For deeper cleaning, use compressed air to remove dust from the fan and vents. Always disconnect the power supply from the wall outlet before cleaning.
  • Ventilation: Ensure that the air intake and exhaust vents of the power supply are not obstructed. Maintain adequate airflow around the PSU within your chassis.
  • Kabelintegritet: Regularly check modular cables for any signs of wear, fraying, or damage. Replace damaged cables immediately.

7. Fejlfinding

Hvis du støder på problemer med din strømforsyning, kan du se følgende almindelige problemer og løsninger:

ProblemMulig årsagLøsning
Systemet tænder ikke.Loose power connections, faulty power outlet, PSU switch off, faulty PSU.Check all power cable connections (wall, PSU, motherboard, components). Ensure the PSU switch is ON. Test the power outlet. Perform the PSU Quick Test.
System powers on but immediately shuts down.Overload, short circuit, overheating, faulty component.Verify total power draw does not exceed PSU capacity. Check for short circuits (e.g., loose screws). Ensure proper ventilation. Disconnect non-essential components to isolate the issue.
Usædvanlige lyde fra strømforsyningen.Dust in fan, faulty fan bearing, coil whine.Clean the fan with compressed air. If noise persists and is excessive, contact support. Coil whine is generally harmless but can be annoying.
Peripherals (e.g., drives) not receiving power.Loose or incorrect modular cable connection.Ensure SATA/MOLEX cables are correctly and firmly connected to both the PSU and the peripheral.

If troubleshooting steps do not resolve the issue, please contact METALFISH customer support.
