Remove a Fan Module from the PTX10001-36MR
Before you remove a fan module from a PTX10001-36MR, ensure that you have taken the necessary
precautions to prevent electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage (see
Damage" on page
173).
Ensure that you have the following parts and tools available:
• ESD grounding strap
• Antistatic bag or an antistatic mat
• Phillips (+) screwdriver, number 1
The fan modules in a PTX10001-36MR are hot-removable and hot-insertable field-replaceable units
(FRUs); you can remove and replace them without powering off the PTX10001-36MR or disrupting
routing functions.
CAUTION: Before removing the fan module, ensure you have a replacement fan
module at hand. If one fan is absent, the chassis will operate for four minutes, and then
shut down. If two fans are absent, the chassis will shut down immediately.
To remove a fan module from a PTX10001-36MR:
1. Place the antistatic bag or the antistatic mat on a flat, stable surface.
2. Wrap and fasten one end of the ESD wrist strap around your bare wrist, and connect the other end
of the strap to the ESD point on the device.
3. Using the Phillips screwdriver, loosen the locking screw (3 or 4 turns).
