6-5 Power Supply
The SuperServer 1041M-T2/1041M-82 has a single 1000 watt power supply, which
is auto-switching capable. This enables it to automatically sense and operate at a
100v to 240v input voltage. An amber light will be illuminated on the power supply
when the power is off. An illuminated green light indicates that the power supply
is operating.

Power Supply Failure

If the power supply unit fails, the system will shut down and you will need to replace
the unit. Replacement units can be ordered directly from Supermicro (see contact
information in the Preface). As there is only one power supply unit in the 1041M-
T2/1041M-82, power must be completely removed from the server before removing
and replacing the power supply unit for whatever reason.

Removing/Replacing the Power Supply

1. Removing the power supply
First unplug the power cord from the failed power supply module. The power supply
module is cold-swappable. To remove the failed power module, simply push the
release tab (on the back of the power supply) to the right and then pull the module
straight out (see Figure 6-6). The power supply wiring was designed to detach
automatically when the module is pulled from the chassis.
2. Installing a new power supply
Replace the failed power module with another PWS-561-1H20 power supply mod-
ule. Push the new power supply module into the power bay until you hear a click.
Finish by plugging the AC power cord back into the module and powering up the
system by depressing the power on/off button.
