14.6.1. Replacing the Fan Tray
The operation of the KBox C-101 version with fan tray extension is permitted only with a functional fan
tray!
Defective components may only be replaced by Kontron original spare parts:
Part number of the fan tray: 1055-4009.
The fan tray can be replaced during operation. This should only be carried out by qualified personnel
aware of the associated dangers.
The fan will not stop immediately when the fan tray is removed during operation. Pull out the fan tray
only a few centimeters and wait until the fan comes to stop.
To replace fan tray, proceed as follows:
1. Ensure to have access to the bottom side of the KBox C-101. The fan tray (Fig. 41, pos. 1) and (Fig. 42, pos. 2) may be
replaced without removing the air filter holder (Fig. 41, pos. 4).
2. Loosen the two knurled screws (Fig. 41, pos. 2) of the fan tray.
3. Pull the fan tray (Fig. 42, pos. 2) out from the fan tray slot (Fig. 42, pos. 3) in order to disconnect the connector for
fan control (Fig. 40, pos. 3) from the internal fan control socket (Fig. 42, pos. 10).
4. Pull the fan tray completely out from the fan tray slot (Fig. 42, pos. 3).
5. Replace the defective fan tray with a new one.
6. Insert the functional fan tray (Fig. 42, pos. 2) into the fan tray slot (Fig. 42, pos. 3)
7. Secure the fan tray by fastening the knurled screws. By fastening of the knurled screws is ensured the proper insertion
of the connector (Fig. 42, pos. 2) into the internal fan control socket (Fig. 42, pos. 10).
