Dell S6000-ON Installation Manual

Fan module installation

The fan modules in the S6000–ON are field replaceable.
Module slot 0 is on the left side of the chassis; module slot 1 is on the right side of the chassis.
CAUTION:
DO NOT mix airflow directions. Both fans must use the same airflow direction—reverse or
normal.

Take the fan module out of the shipping box.
2
Use the grab handle to slide the module into the bay.

Fan module replacement

Complete steps 1 and 2 within one minute or the system powers down.

Use the grab handle to slide the fan module out of the bay.
2
Use the grab handle on the replacement module to slide it into the bay.

Fan air filter replacement

Environmental factors can decrease the amount of time required between air filter replacements. Check the environmental factors regularly.
An increase in temperature and/or particulate matter in the air might affect performance.
CAUTION:
Check the fan air filters at six-month intervals and replace them as necessary. To accurately determine air filter
replacement intervals, regularly monitor the speeds of the cooling fans. An increase in overall fan speed may indicate a clogged
filter.
You must replace the fan air filters with new filters; you cannot clean and reuse the old fan air filters. Replacement filter media must meet
the requirements found in GR-63-CORE.
•
Minimum dust arrestance of 65%, per ASHRAE Standard 52.1-1992. OR
•
Minimum Efficiency Rating Value (MERV) of 2, per ANSI/ASHRAE Standard 52.2-2007.
CAUTION:
For Network Equipment Building Systems (NEBS) compliance, use NEBS approved
filters.
Use fan air filters with reverse air flow systems (blue banded PSUs and fans). You can replace the air filters individually on each fan within
the system without powering down a PSU module or disrupting traffic.
The fan air filter media slides into the frame from the top. No tools are required.
