Non-Hot-Swap Power Supply Replacement
To replace a non-hot-swap power supply, do the following:
1. Grasp the handles located on top of the new power supply. Pivot the handles
upward to 90 degrees. This action puts the handle cams into the correct position to
help seat the power supply into its connector.
2. Carefully insert the new power supply into the bay originally used by the faulty
power supply.
3. Lower the power supply release handles, carefully pressing the power supply into
the connector. The spring latch located on the underside of each handle will snap
into place, indicating that the power supply is seated correctly and locked into
position.
Note: Improper operation of the spring activated portion of the power supply
handles can result in the following:
v
The retractable spring remains compressed - This scenario keeps the
handle from locking the power supply in its seated position. To eliminate
this problem, lower the handle into the locked position, push the spring
activated handle end toward the locking tab. This action forces the spring
latch to mat with the locking tab in the spring latch receiver hole.
v
The locking tab receiver is bent - Before lowering the handle to lock the
power supply into the seated position, ensure that the locking tab located
on top of the power supply in the receiver hole is not bent. Before the
spring latch will seat onto the locking tab, the locking tab, if bent, must be
straightened.
