Removing a Fan Module

The GigaVUE‑HC3 fan tray contains five fan modules. If a fan module fails, you should replace it, however the GigaVUE‑HC3 node will function with one failed fan module. You can remove individual fan modules using the following procedure.

Note:  It is recommended that you only remove a fan module when you have another one available with which to replace it. Otherwise, leave the failed fan module in the chassis.

1. Locate the two thumb screws on the fan module as shown in 1 Fan Module Screw Location on GigaVUE‑HC3 Rear.
