Cooling Fans

Your system contains six hot-swappable fans mounted in a fan assembly and provides cooling for the processors, expansion cards, and memory modules.

NOTE: In the event of a problem with a particular fan, the fan number is referenced by the system’s management software, allowing you to easily identify and replace the proper fan by noting the fan numbers on the cooling fan assembly.

Removing a Cooling Fan

WARNING: Opening or removing the system cover when the system is on may expose you to a risk of electric shock. Exercise utmost care while removing or installing cooling fans.

WARNING: Allow time for the fan to stop spinning after removing it from the system.

WARNING: Do not attempt to operate the system without the cooling fans.
