Dell PowerEdge FX2 and FX2s Enclosure Owner's Manual

Cooling fans

Your system supports eight hot-swappable cooling fans that provide cooling to the I/O components in the system.

To provide increased cooling to the PCIe components in the system, you can change the Fan Offset options from the CMC web interface.

For more information on the Fan Offset properties, see Advanced Fan Configuration in the CMC Online Help.
NOTE: If you are removing a fan, replace it immediately with another fan. Operating the system for an extended period of time without a fan installed can cause the enclosure to overheat.
NOTE: In the event of a problem with a particular fan, the fan number is referenced by the system’s management software, allowing you to easily identify and replace the appropriate fan by noting the fan numbers on the cooling-fan bay. If any of the fans fail, the LEDs on the fan light up.
NOTE: The cooling fans in your system are shipped in two sizes of 80 mm and 60 mm width.
