Description 
The average service life of the device fans is 50,000 hours. In practice, however, the service 
life depends on other variables (e.g. ambient temperature, degree of cabinet protection, etc.) 
and, therefore, may deviate from this value. 
The fans must be replaced in good time to ensure that the cabinet unit is available. 
Preparatory steps 
●  Disconnect the cabinet unit from the power supply. 
●  Allow unimpeded access. 
●  Remove the protective cover. 
Removal 
The steps for the removal procedure are numbered in accordance with the diagram.  
1.  Remove the copper bar (6 screws). 
2.  Remove the retaining screws for the fan (3 screws). 
3.  Disconnect the supply cables (1 x "L", 1 x "N"). 
You can now carefully remove the fan. 
 
CAUTION 
 
When removing the fan, ensure that you do not damage any signal cables. 
 
Installation 
For re-installation, carry out the above steps in reverse order. 
 
CAUTION 
 
The tightening torques specified in the table "Tightening torques for connecting current-
carrying parts" must be observed. 
Carefully re-establish the plug connections and ensure that they are secure. 
The screwed connections for the protective covers must only be tightened by hand.
