About this task
To avoid possible danger, read and follow the following safety
statement.
S017
CAUTION:
Hazardous moving fan blades nearby. Keep fingers and other body parts

CAUTION:
Hazardous energy present. Voltages with hazardous energy might
cause heating when shorted with metal, which might result in spattered
metal, burns, or both.
Attention:
- Read the Installation Guidelines to ensure that you work safely.
- Static electricity that is released to internal solution components
when the solution is powered-on might cause the solution to halt,
which might result in the loss of data. To avoid this potential problem,
always use an electrostatic-discharge wrist strap or other grounding
system when you work inside the solution with the power on.

Procedure
Figure 1. Hot-swap fan installation
- Align the fan with the fan socket on the enclosure.
- Press and hold the terra-cotta latch; then, slide the fan
into the socket until it clicks into place.
Attention:
When replacing a fan with power on, complete the replacement
within 30 seconds to ensure proper operation.
To maintain proper system cooling, do not operate the DA240 Enclosure without a fan or a fan filler panel installed in each socket.
For the configuration with two system fans, make sure that
a fan filler panel has been installed in fan socket 2 before
operating the DA240 Enclosure. For the location of the fan socket, refer to the rear view of Enclosure.
