Figure 10 Installing a fan module
IMPORTANT:
•
At the first login to the switch, use the fan prefer-direction command to set the airflow
direction of the switch to be the same as the airflow direction of the fan module.
If the fan module
has a different airflow direction than the switch
, the system outputs traps and logs to notify you to
replace the fan module.
•
By default, the switch uses the same airflow direction (power-to-port) as the HPE 5944 FAN
Module with Port to Power Airflow (JL837A).
Removing a fan module
WARNING
!
•
Do not touch conductors or terminals on the fan modules.
•
Do not place the fan module in a moist place. Prevent liquid from entering the fan module.
•
Fan modules with faulty internal wiring and conductors require maintenance from maintenance
engineers. Do not disassemble the faulty fan modules.
To remove a fan module:
1. Wear an ESD wrist strap and make sure it makes good skin contact and is reliably grounded.
2. Grasp the two handles of the fan module, as shown by callout 1 in Figure 11, and pull out the
fan module slowly along the guide rails.
3. Put the removed fan module in an antistatic bag.
