Fan Slide-in Module and Temperature Sensor
The two system fans (Fig. 27 and Fig. 47, pos. 3) are integrated in a user-friendly, replaceable fan slide-in module (hot-
swap). The fan slide-in module is mounted in a fan compartment on the front side of the system (Fig. 46, pos, 5).
The system fans are temperature controlled via the temperature sensors installed in the KISS 4U V2 platform. Thus, a
reliable air circulation for optimal active cooling of the platform is guaranteed.
The temperature conditions of the system (depending on the environmental temperature and the system load) are
detected by two temperature sensors. One temperature sensor is located in the rear part (near the ventilation openings)
and the second sensor is placed sideways in the mid part of the KISS 4U V2 platform.
