Cooling Fans

Your system contains four dual-motor fans and provides cooling for the processor and memory modules and two dual-motor fans for the redundant power supplies.

NOTE: Hot-swap removal or installation of the fans is not supported.

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 fan assembly.

Removing a Cooling Fan

WARNING: Only trained service technicians are authorized to remove the system cover and access any of the components inside the system. Before you begin this procedure, review the safety instructions that came with the system.

WARNING: The cooling fan can continue to spin for some time after the system has been powered down. Allow time for the fan to stop spinning before removing it from the system.

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

NOTE: The procedure for removing each individual fan module is the same.
