Replacing a fan tray

WARNING!

When replacing a fan tray while the switch is running, be aware of electrical safety hazards.

To avoid bodily injury, do not touch the rotating fans when you replace the fan tray.

To avoid device damage and bodily injury, H3C recommends that you have two people replace a fan
tray.

When the fan tray fails, replace the fan tray to ensure normal operation of the switch.
For an S12510-X AC/S12510-X DC switch, if only one fan tray is used, install it in the slot FAN2 to ensure
good ventilation.
For an S12516-X AC/S12516-X DC switch, make sure both fan trays are installed on the switch and can

operate correctly.
The S12500-X switches provide the following types of fan tray slots:

Horizontal slots in the S12510-X AC/S12510-X DC switch

Vertical slots in the S12516-X AC/S12516-X DC switch

The procedures for replacing fan trays in both types of slots are the same. This section describes how to
replace a horizontally-orientated fan tray in an S12510-X AC.
