Chapter 5: Chassis Setup and Maintenance

Three heavy duty fans provide cooling for the chassis. These fans circulate air

through the chassis as a means of lowering the chassis internal temperature.

The SC512F-280 chassis accepts two fans instead of three.

5-8 System Fans

System Fan Tray

Systems fan trays are components that house groups of fans. The system fan tray

is held in place by two rivets permanently attached to the chassis surface. Each

rivet is encircled by a rubber mounting to reduce vibration.
