RMC-ENV (Power/Fan Sensors)
The AC Power Supply (650A) for a S8700 IP Connect rack-mounted cabinet
supports one alarm lead that indicates the state of both the power and fan. The
cabinets use variable-speed fans to reduce noise. The power unit contains
thermal speed control. A 3-pin connector on the variable-speed fan assembly
accepts variable input power to control its fan speed and power its alarm circuitry.
Table 8-432 shows the LED and alarm conditions.
Fan Removal and Replacement
!
WARNING:
You can remove the fan assembly while the system is running, but you must
replace the new assembly within 60 seconds to avoid a thermal overload.
1. Place the new fan assembly close to the RMC.
2. Loosen the thumb screws on the fan assembly, and pull it straight out
(unplug it) as shown in Figure 8-38. The power for the fan automatically
disconnects when the assembly is unplugged.
3. Plug in the new fan assembly. The power for the fan automatically
connects when the fan assembly is plugged in.
4. Tighten every thumb screw on the fan assembly.
