Alternate Power Supply Removal and Replacement

Referring to Figure 4-2, perform the following steps to replace the power supply 
module:

1.

If the power supply is defective, the green LED indicator on the power supply 
module will be OFF.

2.

Set the ON/OFF (I/O) switch of the defective power supply to OFF.

3.

Grasp the handle on the power supply, slide the retaining lock button to the 
right, and gently pull the defective module out of its enclosure.

4.

Set the ON/OFF (I/O) switch on the new power supply module to OFF.

5.

Slide the new power supply module into the enclosure and press firmly on the 
front of the module to securely seat the module. Be sure the retaining lock is 
engaged to secure the module.

WARNING:

 Do not insert any object into the power supply slot, such as fingers, 

tools, etc., as dangerous voltages exist on the connectors.

6.

Set the ON/OFF (I/O) switch of new power supply module to the ON 
position.

Chassis Cooling Fan

The VSU-5000 includes a cooling fan on the rear panel to cool the chassis. 

This cooling fan is hot-swappable and can be replaced without powering down 
the VSU-5000. Contact your customer service representative to obtain a 
replacement for the defective fan. Operation can quickly be verified by holding 
an open hand near the fan to sense airflow.

Fan Removal and Replacement

Referring to Figure 4-2, perform the following steps to replace the cooling fan:

1.

Unscrew the two thumbscrews in the lower left and upper right corner of the 
fan, then pull the fan straight out of the unit.

2.

Making sure that the fan’s power connector is aligned with its socket, slide 
the new fan into place and tighten the two thumbscrews to secure it to the 
unit.
