Thermaltake Pacific CL480 Radiator
The Pacific CL480 Radiator is a high-performance 480mm copper radiator with high-density copper fin design and brass tank. Built for 120mm high-static pressure fans, the radiator is manufactured from premium-quality materials that provide exceptional performance, unrivalled reliability. The unique stainless steel side panels guarantee the durability as well as reduce the weight of the radiator. Integrated G1/4" threads make it easy to install, while rigid connections ensure leak-resistant measures are in place. With an ideal mounting, fitting and flow set-up, the Pacific CL480 Radiator meets your cooling needs in every way.
“Tt LCS Certified” is the hallmark that ensures first-class performance from the best features and fitment. A certification exclusive to Thermaltake, it sets the benchmark for all true LCS chassis and is applied only to products that meet our stringent design standards for delivering what hardcore enthusiasts demand. The Tt LCS certification is a way for Thermaltake to designate to all power users the chassis which have been tested for best compatibility with extreme liquid cooling configurations.

The radiator is optimized for efficiently pulling heat away from the power-dissipating components thus achieving maximum heat dissipation at both low and high airflow operation. After soldering, the fin and tube connect to form a joint, thereby creating uniform heat transfer.
To assure the best thermal capacity and increase heat transfer, the Pacific CL480 is engineered with an extremely thick 64mm radiator along with a triple-row 14-set flat tube design and brass tank. This technique allows that water flows down on the one side, and then passes across the bottom chamber before circulating back to the other side of the radiator.
Fin density is optimally designed to accommodate high air volume (FPI: 14). The performance improves significantly with increased fan speed, offering superior cooling efficiency during operation.
Unlike most of copper radiators on the market, the radiator utilizes stainless steel made side panels that increase the durability and strength of the radiator while reducing the weight.
An exceptional manufacturing process using high temperature soldering at 482℉/250℃ sets the radiator in a class of its own. This technique allows for impurities to be kept out of the soldering process, ensuring that full strength on all the connected areas is achieved. The radiator is baked through a controlled atmosphere soldering line. The materials melt into each other to accomplish optimal thermal transfer from the tubes to the actual fins in order to attain better heat evacuation.
Designed for 120mm and 140mm high-static pressure fans, the Pacific CL Series allow users to build up aesthetically-superior watercooled PCs as well as incorporate externally-modular upgrades for the systems, delivering the ultimate in custom configurations.
Cautions
Thermaltake recommends the following steps before using the Pacific series radiators and water blocks:
- To ensure a clean loop, flush and rinse your radiators and water blocks with distilled water prior to use.
- Do not use tap water or distilled water as your coolant, it may harm your loop and reduce performance.
- It is strongly recommended to use market-proven pre-mix coolant, such as Thermaltake Coolant 1000, for optimal performance and corrosion protection.
- Before storing your water cooling components, clean, rinse, and dry them to ensure a longer lifespan.
After completing your water loop setup, Thermaltake recommends:
- Use pre-mix coolant, such as Thermaltake Coolant 1000, for corrosion protection and performance.
- Fill the reservoir with coolant and power the pump on and off multiple times to ensure the loop is properly filled.
- DO NOT let the pump run dry. Turn off the power immediately if there is no liquid entering the pump.
- Fill the reservoir to the top to prevent air from entering the pump.
- If necessary, tilt the system to help bleed air from the loop.
- Place paper towels under fittings to test for leaks.
- Run the loop with the fill port open for about 24 hours to bleed air out completely.
- Flush the system correctly before starting to prevent any particles from sticking to your tubes and components.
- Coolant color might fade over time.
