Figure 10-3. DC PEM Label
NOTE: If there is a PEM failure (the PEM status LED is not lit or amber, major alarm LED is lit, and audible
alarm sounds), the entire PEM must be replaced. There are no field serviceable parts inside the PEM unit.
WARNING: Do not remove the PEM safety cover until the power supplied by the remote power source is
OFF.
WARNING: To be completely sure that power has been turned off, use a voltmeter to measure the voltage
across the negative (-) and positive (+) source DC leads. The measurement across the positive and negative
leads should be zero (0) volts before you proceed with the replacement.

To remove a PEM:

Removing and Replacing RPMs, Line Cards, or SFMs
WARNING: Do not remove a panel blank unless you are ready to install a line card, RPM, or SFM into that
slot. If you remove a card, immediately replace the empty slot with a panel blank. Blanks are required to
control airflow and electromagnetic interference.
WARNING: Electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage can occur when components are mishandled. Always
wear an ESD-preventive wrist or foot-heel ground strap when handling RPMs, SFMs, or line cards. After you
remove the original packaging, place RPMs, SFMs, and line cards on an antistatic surface.
Step Task
1Ensure that the remote power source is in the OFF position and that the PEM status LED and Voltage LED are off.
2Switch the Over Current Protector (located on the PEM front panel) to the OFF position.
3Loosen the retaining screw and remove PEM safety cover.
4Disconnect power cables attached to the PEM.
5Slide the PEM out of the slot.
6If you are replacing a PEM, go to
Power Supply
.
If you are not replacing the PEM, replace the empty slot with a PEM blank.
