Maintaining the Cooling Components

The Acme Packet 6300/6350 Air Filter removes airborne particles before they are drawn into the Acme Packet 6300/6350. To prevent system malfunction and prolong the life of the system’s cooling components:

• Clean or replace the fan filter every three months
• Clean the air inlets once a week.

Cooling maintenance encompasses cleaning the fan module and cleaning the air inlets on the front of the Acme Packet 6300/6350. Cleaning the fan module requires that you remove the module itself. If you are not shutting down the Acme Packet 6300/6350 this procedure must be performed quickly or else the system may overheat and cause packet processing to stop.

This maintenance should be performed alongside other preventive maintenance to take place within a planned maintenance or downtime window, during off-peak hours.
