Caution - To avoid damage to equipment, do not remove a power supply/fan module without a working replacement.



3.1.1.1 Removing an AC Power Supply/Fan Module

Be sure to follow Section 1.2, Static Electricity Precautions.

1. Turn off the power, then remove the AC cord locks (if applicable) and the power cable.

2. Turn the thumbscrew at the top of the power supply latch counterclockwise until the thumbscrew is disengaged from the power supply.

3. Pull the latch forward about 45 degrees to disconnect the power supply/fan module from the midplane.

4. Use the power supply handle to pull the power supply/fan module out of the chassis.

3.1.1.2 Installing an AC Power Supply/Fan Module

1. Slide the new module into the fan and power supply slot.

2. Push the latch back so that the power supply is fully inserted into the chassis.

3. Turn the thumbscrew at the top of the power supply latch clockwise until it is finger-tight, to secure the module.



Note - To ensure that a thumbscrew is finger-tight, tighten it with a screwdriver and then loosen the thumbscrew counterclockwise a quarter turn.



4. Attach the power cable and reinstall the AC cord locks if applicable.

5. Turn the power back on.

3.1.2.1 Removing a DC Power Supply/Fan Module

Be sure to follow Section 1.2, Static Electricity Precautions.

1. Use a flatblade screwdriver to loosen the two screws that secure the power cable to the power supply and then disconnect the cable from the supply.

2. Turn the thumbscrew at the top of the power supply latch counterclockwise until the thumbscrew is disengaged from the power supply.

3. Pull the latch forward about 45 degrees to disconnect the power supply/fan module from the midplane.

4. Use the power supply handle to pull the power supply/fan module out of the chassis.

3.1.2.2 Installing a DC Power Supply/Fan Module

1. Slide the new module into the fan and power supply slot.

2. Push the latch back so that the power supply is fully inserted into the chassis.

3. Turn the thumbscrew at the top of the power supply latch clockwise until it is finger-tight to secure the module.



Note - To ensure that a thumbscrew is finger-tight, tighten it with a screwdriver and then loosen the thumbscrew counterclockwise a quarter turn.



4. Connect the DC power cable to the DC source.



Note - Use only DC power cables provided with the array.



Check the DC cable part number and wire labels carefully before connecting the cable to the source (see the following table.) GND = Chassis Ground.
