Installing components

Installing a blower module
Your BladeCenter might be equipped with standard blower modules (part number
44E5083), or it might be equipped with high-efficiency blower modules (part number
68Y8205). The standard and high-efficiency blower modules are not
interchangeable and should not be mixed in the same BladeCenter unit.
