Remove a Cooling Fan Module

Use this procedure to remove a cooling fan module.

Prerequisites

  1. Use SupportAssist to send diagnostic data to technical support.
  2. Change the operation mode of the Storage Center to Maintenance.

About this task

You can remove a cooling fan module without shutting down the expansion enclosure. However, the expansion enclosure must have at least two cooling fan modules installed while the expansion enclosure is powered up. Do not remove more than one cooling fan module while AC power is on.
  • CAUTION: A cooling fan module must be replaced within five minutes of extending the expansion enclosure from the rack. Do not remove a faulted fan unless a replacement is on hand and available to be installed within five minutes.

Steps

  1. Remove the front bezel.
  2. Extend the expansion enclosure chassis from the front of the rack.
  3. Unlock the fan module by pushing the orange tab to the left.
  4. Pull up on the latch handle to release the fan module.
  5. Pull the fan module up and out of the chassis.
