MX240 and MX480 Ethernet Services Router Fan Tray Installation Instructions Cooling System The cooling system consists of the following components: ■ Fan tray ■ Air filter The cooling system components work together to keep all router components within the acceptable temperature range (see Figure 1 on page 2, Figure 2 on page 2, Figure 3 on page 3, Figure 4 on page 3, Figure 5 on page 4, and Figure 6 on page 4).
Cooling System be adequately cooled, the Routing Engine shuts down the system by disabling output power from each power supply.

The fan tray contains three fans on an MX240 router and six fans on an MX480 router. The fan tray is hot-removable and hot-insertable. The fan tray is located in the rear of the chassis on the right side. The fan tray weighs about 6.8 lb (3.08 kg).
Replacing the Fan Tray To replace the fan tray, use the following procedures: ■ Removing the Fan Tray on page 5 ■ Installing the Fan Tray on page 6 Removing the Fan Tray To remove the fan tray (see Figure 7 on page 5 and Figure 8 on page 6): 1. Attach an electrostatic discharge (ESD) grounding strap to your bare wrist and connect the strap to one of the ESD points on the chassis. For more information about ESD, see “Preventing Electrostatic Discharge Damage” on page 9. 2.

Electrostatic Discharge Point Figure 9: Installing the Fan Tray in an MX240 Router Figure 10: Installing the Fan Tray in an MX480 Router Electrostatic Discharge Point Figure 11 on page 8 and Figure 12 on page 8 show the location of the ESD point on the rear of the chassis. The illustration shows a DC-powered router, but the location is the same in AC-powered routers.

Preventing Electrostatic Discharge Damage Preventing Electrostatic Discharge Damage Many router hardware components are sensitive to damage from static electricity. Some components can be impaired by voltages as low as 30 V. You can easily generate potentially damaging static voltages whenever you handle plastic or foam packing material or if you move components across plastic or carpets.
