System Fans
The SC514 chassis includes four heavy-duty fans for system cooling plus the option to add
two additional fans.
Replacing a System Fan
1. If necessary, open the chassis cover while the power is running to determine which fan
requires changing. (Do not run the server for an extended time with the chassis open.)
2. Power down the system as described in section 3-1.
3. Remove the cables of both the failed fan and the other fan sharing the same tray (since
two fans occupy one housing).
4. Lift the fan housing with the two fans attached up and out of the chassis. Remove the
failed fan by gently pulling it out of the housing.
5. Place the new fan into the vacant space in the housing. Make sure that the arrows on
the sides of the fan (indicating air direction) point in the same direction as the arrows on
the other fans.
6. Plug the fan cable into the connector on the serverboard.
