Kontron CG2200 Carrier Grade Server Installation and Maintenance Guide

3.3.8 Adding or Replacing a Processor

CAUTION: The processor must be appropriate: You could damage the server board if you install a processor

that is inappropriate for your server. Refer to the Configuration Guide located on the support web page

http://us.kontron.com/support/

(search for CG2200, click on Product Downloads, and then

Ordering Guide) for a list of compatible processors for the CG2200 server.

Use the instructions provided below to add or replace a processor instead of using the instructions that
came with the processor. Before you begin, remove the right-side riser card assembly and processor air
duct from the chassis. For instructions, see “Removing a Riser Card Assembly” and “Removing the
Processor Air Duct”.

Follow the instructions below to remove and then install a processor, referring to

ESD and Processor Handling Precautions

Be mindful of the following points when handling the processors and sockets to reduce the risk of
electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage to the processor:

Touch the metal chassis before touching the processor or server board.

Keep part of your body in contact with the metal chassis to dissipate the static charge while
handling the processor.

Avoid moving around unnecessarily.

Use a ground strap attached to the front panel (with the bezel removed.)

Figure 14. Cautions for Handling Processors

Removing a Processor

1. Loosen the four captive screws on the corners of the heat sink with a #2 Phillips screwdriver. (Figure

15, “A”)

2. Twist the heat sink slightly to break the seal between the heat sink and the processor. (“B”)
3. Lift the heat sink from the processor. If it does not pull up easily, twist the heat sink again.

Note: Do not force the heat sink from the processor. Doing so could damage the processor.
