Intel SR9000MK4U manual Cooling Subsystem, Cooling Fan Indicator

Cooling Subsystem

The cabinet inlets have hot-swappable, 5+1 redundant fans for cooling.

120 mm x 38 mm fans are used. They provide enough airflow to cool the system components, processors, memory and chipset, even if one of the six fans fails. The fans are located across the center of the cabinet. The hard drives and DVD-ROM drive are cooled by suction. Components on main board, processor and chipset are cooled by the air flow through the air duct.

The power supply module has non-redundant fans in it for cooling the power supply.

Caution: The chassis top cover must be installed for proper system cooling. Additionally, cooling fans must be hot-swapped within two minutes. This time period applies only to the time that the cooling fan is physically removed, not from the time of failure.
