that the module can be inserted only in its proper orientation.

Close up, replace the bezel, reconnect any cables, and return the appliance to service. If the power was left
on during the operation, you will nevertheless need to restart (
sysconf appliance reboot

the tamper event caused by opening the fan bay.

You will also need to re-Activate your HSM Partitions (
partition activate -partition

Summary
Removing, cleaning, and replacing the fan filter (the black mesh behind the grille) does not cause a tamper,
and can be done at any time without disrupting your Clients.
Opening the fan bay (behind the filter), by unscrewing that Torx screw, does cause a tamper and therefore
some down-time for your Clients. If only one fan module is showing a defect, you can probably leave replacing
it until scheduled down-time, during which there would be no unexpected disruption to your Clients.
