Chapter 5: Chassis Setup and Maintenance

Six heavy-duty fans provide cooling for the chassis. Four fans are located in the

mid-section of the chassis with two fans in the rear. These fans circulate air through

the chassis as a means of lowering the chassis internal temperature.

The fans come pre-installed to the chassis. Each fan is hot-swappable and can be

replaced without removing any connections.

Replacing Mid-System Fans

1. Determine which fan has failed. Because the fans are hot-swappable, the chassis

does not need to be powered-down.

2. Press the fan release tab and lift the failed fan from the chassis. Mid fans must

be pulled straight out of the chassis.

3. Place the new fan into the vacant space in the housing while making sure the ar-

rows on the top of the fan (indicating air direction) point in the same direction as the

arrows on the other fans. As soon as the fan is connected, it will begin working.
