Removing a power supply unit

Prerequisites

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: Ensure that a power supply unit (PSU) is not operational at the time of its removal. Check the PSU redundancy configuration before removing a PSU.
NOTE: The PSUs are hot-swappable. Remove and replace only one PSU at a time in a system that is turned on.
NOTE: You must remove a PSU to replace a faulty PSU, service other components of the system, or to reduce chassis weight when installing the enclosure in the rack.
NOTE: To switch to a new PSU rated output capacity, generation, or input voltage, you must first power down the chassis before changing the PSU configuration.

Ensure that you read the Safety instructions.

Steps

  1. Disconnect the power cable from the power source and from the PSU that you intend to remove.
  2. Press the release latch and slide the PSU out of the chassis.
