How to use

Power down the server and follow ESD (electrostatic discharge) precautions before handling internal components. Remove the server cover according to the equipment service manual and locate the existing 1U fan assembly. Disconnect the fan power connector and any retaining clips or screws. Install the HPE Fan 1U Assembly in the same orientation, secure it with the original fasteners, and reconnect the power cable. Replace the server cover and power on the system. Verify fan operation and system thermal readings through the server management interface or BIOS.

Usage recommendations

Use genuine HPE-compatible parts and follow the server manufacturer’s service documentation for installation. Ensure firmware and system management software are up to date to support fan monitoring and speed control. Replace fan assemblies in matched sets when recommended by maintenance schedules to maintain balanced airflow across the rack.
