3.6.5 Replacing a Blower

WARNING

Only qualified service personnel should access the rear of the shelf to replace a blower.

The controller shelf has two blowers mounted on the rear. Connectors on the backplane provide the +12 Vdc to operate the blowers. When a blower fails, the shelf status (amber) LED on the power supply SBB is OFF and an error message is passed to the controller or host via the shelf status signal. The Device I/O as- sembly status LEDs indicate which blower has failed and then automatically switches the remaining blower to high speed. Refer to the SBB I/O Module User’s Guide (Part No.: EK-SBBIO-UG) supplied with the device expansion shelf for additional LED and blower status information.

Use one of the following procedures to replace a blower (see Figure 3–18).

CAUTIONS

The blowers are dual-speed devices and should be replaced only with identical units.

Shelf air flow is lost when a blower is removed. Re- place immediately or damage can result.
