Removal
The IMD is designed to be field replaceable by qualified service personnel only. The IMD module is
hot-swappable, meaning it is designed to be replaceable while the PDU is still connected to AC power.
If the Geist Upgradable PDU is going to be upgraded by replacing the IMD module, follow the
procedure described in this section.
NOTE
Be sure to have the new IMD module ready for installation immediately
after removal of the old IMD.
1. Remove disposable ESD wrist strap from package, remove adhesive backing and attach to PDU,
put wrist strap on arm.
2. Insert Geist IMD Removal Tool as shown. Be sure to press tool in level and press in until tool is
flush with face of IMD. Some older versions may require overlays to be removed prior to inserting
tool.
3. Carefully pull tool and IMD straight out about 2 inches. Remove tool from IMD.
CAUTION
IMD is still connected internally. DO NOT pull IMD more than 2 inches
from chassis.
4. Gently unplug the connector from the IMD.
