6-5 Power Supply
The SuperWorkstation 7044A-82/7044A-8/7044A-i2/7044A-i has a single 645
watt power supply. This power unit is equipped with low-noise technology,
making the system ideal for workstation environments.
The power supply has an auto-switching capability that enable it to automati-
cally sense and operate with 100 or 240 volt inputs. The power module is
PFC (Power Factor Correction) compliant.
Power Supply Failure
If the power supply unit fails, the system will shut down and you will need to
replace the unit. Replacement units can be ordered directly from Supermicro
(see contact information in the Preface). As there is only one power supply
unit in the 7044A-82/7044A-8/7044A-i2/7044A-i, power must be completely
removed from the server before removing and replacing the power supply unit
for whatever reason.
Replacing the Power Supply
1. Accessing the power supply:
For safety reasons, you will need to remove power from the system when
replacing the power supply on the 7044A-82/7044A-8/7044A-i2/7044A-i. The
power supply can be removed from the back of the chassis; access to the
inside is unnecessary.
2. Removing the power supply:
First, unplug the power cord from the failed power supply. Then press the
locking tab on the module and pull the unit completely out.
3. Installing a new power supply module:
Replace the failed unit with another unit of the same input voltage, output
voltage and wattage. It is highly recommended to replace it with exactly the
same model power supply (PWS-0060). Gently but firmly push the new unit
all the way into the open bay. Secure it to the chassis using the locking
tab. Plug the power cord back into the new power supply. Finish by
depressing the power button on the chassis front control panel.
