Removing and Replacing IRU Fans (Blowers)

The IRU fans (blowers) are located at the rear of the unit (see Figure 6-5). You will need to access
the rack from the back to remove and replace a fan. The IRU’s system controller issues a warning
message when a fan is not running properly. This means the RPM level of the fan is not within
tolerance. When an IRU fan fails, the following things happen:

1.

The L1 display on the IRU with the failed fan shows a warning message

ATTN: Fan (number) warning

2.

The console will show the same warning indicating the rack and IRU position

001c01 L2> Fan (number) warning limit reached @ 0 RPM
