Returning the defective part

In the materials shipped with a replacement SCR part, HP specifies whether or not the defective

component must be returned to HP. Where required, you must ship the defective component back to HP

within a defined period of time, normally five business days. The defective component must be returned

with the associated documentation provided in the shipping material. Failure to return the defective

component may result in HP billing you for the replacement. HP pays all shipping and return costs for

CSR components, and determines the courier/carrier used.

Replacing a power supply/blower assembly

The power supply and blower are separately replaceable components. It is not necessary to remove the

power supply to replace a failed blower.

Before you begin

Always use proper antistatic protection as described in the documentation that shipped with your system.
You do not need to power off the enclosure to replace a power supply.
Be aware that the power supply may be hot to the touch.
Verify that the status LED is out on the power supply/blower assembly that you are replacing.

CAUTION:

You have only 7 minutes to complete the power supply replacement! Both power supplies must be

installed for the enclosure to cool properly. When a power supply is removed, the enclosure can

overheat and shutdown in approximately 7 minutes. If a power supply fails, leave it installed until

a replacement is available.

Removing a power supply

To remove a power supply:

1.

Disengage the power cord lock (

Figure 30

-1), and then disconnect the AC power cord from the

power supply.

TIP:

When removing the left power supply, ensure that the cord lock on the right power supply is

engaged to avoid inadvertently disconnecting the right power supply. Also, take care to avoid

disrupting the cables on the I/O module to the left of the power supply.

2.

Lift up on the mounting latch (

Figure 30

-2), grasp the blower (

Figure 30

-3) and pull the power

supply out of the enclosure.
