CAUTION:

A single

blower

operating at high speed can provide sufficient air flow to cool an enclosure and the

elements for up to 100 hours. However, operating an enclosure at temperatures approaching an

overheating threshold can damage elements and may reduce the MTBF of a specific element. Immediate

replacement of the defective blower is required.

The following sections define the power supply condition reports.

0.3.en.01 NONCRITICAL condition—Blower speed

A

blower

is operating at a speed outside of the EMU specified range, possibly because of a bearing

problem. This can affect enclosure cooling and cause an element to fail. This condition report remains

active until the problem is corrected.
This error does not normally require immediate correction. However, an error of this type could contribute

to an element overheating.
HP recommends replacing the

blower

as soon as possible.

To correct this problem, record all six characters of the condition report, then contact your HP authorized

service representative.

0.3.en.02 CRITICAL condition—Blower speed

A

blower

is operating at a speed that is significantly outside the EMU specified range, possibly because

of a bearing problem. This can cause the loss of cooling and cause an element to fail. The error remains

active until the problem is corrected.
HP recommends replacing the

blower

as soon as possible.

To correct this problem, record all six characters of the condition report, then contact your authorized

service representative.
