CSP 2040 Fan Tray

Replacing the Fan Tray Filter

The CSP 2040 chassis is cooled by two high-speed fans that draw in cool air through the front of the chassis.

To replace the fan tray filter, complete the following steps while referring to CSP 2040 Fan Tray .

Do not work with the fan tray while the fans are still rotating. For your safety, pull out the fan tray approximately 1/2-inch and allow the fans to stop. After the fans have stopped, you can slide the fan tray completely out.

Excel recommends not running a system for more than 10 minutes without a fan tray installed.

Do not try to clean the filter. A partially cleaned filter installed upside-down contaminates the system. The deterioration of filter matter also contaminates the system.

Important! You do not have to turn the power OFF before removing the filter.

1 Loosen the retaining screws on the fan tray door and remove it.

2 Gently pull the fan tray to disengage it from the midplane.

3 Remove the fan tray filter.

4 Replace the dirty filter with a new one.

5 Slide the fan tray into the chassis, replace the fan tray door, and tighten the retaining screw to secure the door to the chassis.
