SUPERSERVER 5037C-T User's Manual

6-6 System Fans

The SC731 includes a super quiet system fan that provides cooling for the chassis. No tools or screws are required to install the system fan.

Fan Failure

Under normal operation, the chassis fan and the power supply fan both run continu- ously. If the chassis fan fails, the system must be powered down before replacing it. If the power supply fan fails, the power supply itself must be replaced.

Replacing the System Fan

1.Power down the server and disconnect it from the power source.

2.Remove the left chassis cover as described in Section 6-4.

3.Insert the four rubber pins through mounting holes in the rear of the chassis and through the mounting holes in the rear fan.

4.Pull the rubber pins through the mounting holes of the fan to secure the fan to the chassis.

5.Connect the fan cable to the motherboard.
