Replacing the Fan Assembly
Thisguideprovidesinstructionsforreplacingthefanassemblyina
SpectraT200,T380,T680,T950,orT‐Finitylibrary,referredtointhis
documentas“thelibrary”.
PREPARE FOR MAINTENANCE
Beforeyoubeginthereplacementprocedure,makesureyoufulfillthe
prerequisitesdescribedinthissection.
Discontinuing Backups
T200, T380, T680 libraries
Backupscannotrunduringfanreplacementsincethelibrarymustbe
powereddown.Useyourbackupsoftwaretostopanybackupsrunningto
thelibrary.
T950 and T-Finity libraries
Backupscancontinuetorunwhileyoureplacethefanassembly.
Ensuring ESD Protection
Therepairenvironmentforthelibrarymustbefreeofconditionsthat
couldcauseelectrostaticdischarge(ESD).ToprotectthelibraryfromESD,
followtheseprocedureswhenrepairingortestingthelibrary:
Placeastaticprotectionmatontheworksurfaceusedwhileremoving
andinstallinglibrarycomponents.Usea1‐megohmresistortoground
thestaticprotectionmat.
Wearastaticprotectionwristbandorgroundingfootstrapwhenever
youhandlelibrarycomponentswhentheyareremovedfromtheir
anti‐staticbags.Connectthewristbandtothestaticprotectionmatorto
othersuitableESDgrounding.
Note: Keepallelectroniccomponentsinanti‐staticbagswhennotin
use.

Powering off the Library
1. FrontPanel—Poweroffthelibraryfromthefrontpanel(seeLocating
theFansonpage 6).
a. Pressthefrontpanelpowerbuttonforapproximatelysixsecondsor
untilthebutton’sLEDstartsflashing.
b. Waitforthepower‐offsequencetocomplete.Ittakesfromone
minutetofiveminutes(dependingonthelibrary)whilethelibrary
allowsapplicationstoshutdowngracefully.
2. BackPanel—Setthemainpowerswitchesonthelibrarybackpanelto
theoffposition.
Ifyouhaveredundantpowersuppliesinstalled,makesureyouturnoff
bothpowerswitches.
Warning
Risk of electrical shock. Hazardous moving parts. Turn off the power to the library
and disconnect the power cords before accessing the fan.

eithersideserviceframe.
a. Examinethesidebracketsontheneworreplacementserviceframe
fanmoduleanddeterminewhichsidehastheshorterlengthcaptive
