Installing and Removing a Fan Tray

Installing a Fan Tray
Note: Fan trays must be installed in the three lower fan tray slots. Optionally, for enhanced redundancy, an additional three fan trays may be installed in the upper fan slots. Three or six fan trays are the only supported configurations.
To install a fan tray, refer to the figures as indicated in the steps below and proceed as follows:
1.Locate the ESD wrist strap shipped with the Matrix X16‐C chassis. Attach the ESD wrist strap to your wrist and plug the cable from the ESD wrist strap into the ESD grounding receptacle at the bottom of the chassis as shown in Figure 3‐10.
2.Unpack the fan tray by taking it from its shipping box and removing any packaging materials. (Save the shipping box and materials in the event the unit must be reshipped.)
3.Remove the fan tray from its protective plastic bag.
4.Examine the fan tray carefully, checking for damage. If any damage is noted, do not install it. Contact Enterasys Networks for instructions.
5.Unfasten two screws on the bottom bezel, as shown in Figure 3‐17. Pull the bezel down off the fan tray flanges and away from the chassis.
Note: If you are removing the top bezel, note that the fan tray flanges face up, so in removing the bezel, lift it up and away from the chassis.
