Dell PowerEdge VRTX Enclosure Owner's Manual

Installing a blower module

About this task

CAUTION: Many repairs may only be done by a certified service technician. You should only perform troubleshooting and simple repairs as authorized in your product documentation, or as directed by the online or telephone service and support team. Damage due to servicing that is not authorized by Dell is not covered by your warranty. Read and follow the safety instructions that are shipped with your product.
CAUTION: Exercise care while handling the blower module to prevent damage to the connector on the blower module.
CAUTION: The blower closeout door is spring loaded. To prevent injury, exercise care when placing your hand or fingers inside the blower module bay.
CAUTION: When replacing a blower module when the enclosure is on, install the replacement blower module within 30 seconds to prevent server module cooling problems.

Steps

  1. Align the blower module with the slot on the chassis.
  2. Holding the blower module by its handle, slide it into the chassis until it clicks into the slot and is fully seated.
