alternative to using an uninterruptible power supply, and a second level of fault tolerance when used in conjunction with an uninterruptible power supply.

The temperature of the TR 700 Battery is generally 15-20°C (59-68°F) higher than the ambient temperature during fast charge. Therefore, to complete a recharge cycle, the ambient temperature should be lower than 55°C (131°F). If the ambient temperature exceeds 55°C (131°F), the recharge cycle will terminate prematurely, thus preventing the TR 700 Battery from reaching a fully charged state. A recharge cycle lasts at least six hours under normal operating conditions.

Attention: It is recommended that you replace the TR 700 Battery annually or after 500 recharging cycles, whichever comes first.

2.If the server is installed in a rack cabinet, remove the server from the rack cabinet and place it on a flat, clean, and static-protective surface. See the Rack Installation Instructions that comes with the server.

3.Remove the server cover. See “Removing the server cover” on page 71.

4.Remove the cooling shroud. See “Removing and reinstalling the cooling shroud” on page 76.

5.Remove the riser card assembly 1 and lay it upside down on a flat, clean, and static-protective surface. See “Replacing the riser card assembly 1” on page 136.

6.Remove the ThinkServer RAID 700 Adapter, which is a kind of RAID card, from the riser card assembly 1. See “Replacing the RAID card” on page 140.
