Replacing the Cooling System Components
The cooling system of the device consists of 2 fan trays each of which has 6 fans and
1 air filter. When the ventilation is inadequate due to fan failure or air filter block, you
need to change the fan tray or the air filer.
Note: You should change your fan trays at least once a year even they can work
normally.
Replacing a Fan Tray
The chassis has a fan tray installed vertically on each of its sides. To prevent over-
heating, you should install a replacement fan tray immediately after you remove the
existing one. The fan tray is hot-swappable.
To replace a fan tray, take the following steps:
1.
Wear an electrostatic discharge (ESD) strap around your bare wrist and connect
the strap to an ESD point on the chassis. See
2.
Use a Phillips screwdriver to loosen the screws on the fan tray.
3.
Hold the handle of the fan tray and pull it out a little to disconnect it to power.
Wait till the fans stop spinning.
