Cooling fans
The cooling fans are integrated into the system to dissipate the heat generated by the functioning of the system. These fans
provide cooling for the processors, expansion cards, and memory modules.
Your system supports up to eight standard cooling fans.
NOTE:
Mixing of standard cooling fans is not supported.
Each fan is listed in the systems management software, referenced by the respective fan number. If there is a problem
with a particular fan, you can easily identify and replace the proper fan by noting the fan number on the system.
Removing a cooling fan
Prerequisites
NOTE:
Opening or removing the system cover when the system is on may expose you to a risk of electric shock. Exercise
utmost care while removing or installing cooling fans.
CAUTION: The cooling fans are hot swappable. To maintain proper cooling while the system is on, replace only
one fan at a time.
