Air Shroud
Air shrouds concentrate airflow to maximize fan efficiency. The SC213TS chassis air shroud
does not require screws to set up.
Air Shroud Installation
1. Begin by removing power from the system as described in Section 3.1. Remove the
chassis cover as described in Section 3.2.
2. Remove the left side break-away piece of the main air shroud.
3. Slide the additional air shroud into the chassis before installing the main air shroud.
4.
Install the main air shroud in the chassis. The air shroud fits just behind the three fans in
the fan rack. Slide the air shroud into the grooves just behind the fan rack (Figure 6-4).
5. Replace the chassis cover, plug the power cords into the power supplies and power up
the system.
Checking the Airflow
Check the Airflow
1.
Make sure there are no objects obstructing the airflow in and out of the server.
2. Do not operate the server without hard drives or drive carriers in the drive bays. Use
only recommended server parts.
3.
Make sure no wires or foreign objects obstruct airflow through the chassis. Pull all
excess cabling out of the airflow path or use shorter cables.
4. The control panel LEDs inform you of system status. See the Control Panel in Section
1.4 for details on the LEDs and the control panel buttons.
