4.2. Replacing Fan Modules
Recommended Replacement Interval
The fan module in a F 18 00 Series device is liable to wear from mechanical movement and fan failure
can lead to much more serious failures from overheating of electronic components. Although the fan
modules are built for prolonged use it is nonetheless a recommended precaution that the fan module
(shown below) be replaced every two years.
