Replacing the Chassis Air Filter
The lower fan tray draws air into the chassis. It is equipped with a particulate air filter to prevent dust and debris from
entering the system. The air filter must be changed periodically to ensure proper ventilation and air flow through the
chassis.
This chapter includes the following sections:
 Determining When an Air Filter Needs Replacing
 Removing the Air Filter
 Installing the Air Filter
Important: The air filter (ASR5K-FLTR-AI) should be replaced at least every six months. Keep a minimum of
one replacement air filter on site for each deployed chassis. This ensures that qualified service personnel can quickly
replace the filter when needed. The filter should be replaced during a maintenance window.
Caution: During installation, maintenance, and/or removal, wear a grounding wrist strap to avoid ESD damage
to the components. Failure to do so could result in damage to sensitive electronic components and potentially void your
warranty.
