System Cooling and Fans
The chassis has integrated cooling fans and the airflow is from one side to the other
through the ventilation holes provided.
There is no ventilating through the top and bottom covers, so no space needs to be
allowed above and below the rack in a system installation.
Fan Replacement
The fans are monitored and alarmed in the control system; if a fan fails please follow the
instructions below to exchange fans.
The two fans are located on the right hand side of the chassis, each secured in place
using two screws.
1.
Disconnect all cables and remove the chassis from the 19” rack frame.
2. Remove the top cover, screw locations to remove cover are shown below
3. Remove the power supply. To exchange the rear fan it will also be necessary to
move the power supply mounting bracket to one side (see below). Two screws in the
bottom of the chassis should be loosened to allow this bracket to be moved over.
