Power Supply
Each SC512 chassis model includes a high-efficiency power supply rated at 200,
260, 280, 350, 410 or 580 Watts. In the unlikely event your power supply fails,
replacement is simple and can be done without tools.
Air Shroud
Air shrouds are shields, usually plastic, that funnel air directly to where it is needed.
Always use the air shroud included with your chassis.

3-4 Chassis Model Options
The following section lists the different options which are available for each of the
different chassis models in the SC512 chassis family of products.
Identifying Fan and Blower-Cooled Chassis Models
Your SC512 chassis is equipped with either a blower unit or a set of system fans
for optimized chassis cooling.
The SC512, SC512C and most SC512L model chassis use a blower unit for chas-
sis cooling.
The SC512F model chassis are cooled with system fans. The number of system
fans included in your specific system may vary.
See the following page for illustrations of blower units and system fans. For detailed
instructions on replacing a blower unit or system fans, see the Chassis Setup and
Maintenance section of this manual.
