Fans; Components - Dell EMC PowerSwitch S4100-ON Series Installation Manual

The S5200F-ON Series (S5232F-ON, S5248F-ON, S5296F-ON, S5224F-ON, and S5212F-ON) switch comes from the factory with two
PSUs and four fan modules installed in the switch. For all switches except the S5212F-ON, the fan modules and the power supplies, which
have integrated fans, are hot-swappable. For the S5212F-ON, the fans are fixed.
In addition to the power supply modules, you can order and install fan modules separately.
The S5200F-ON Series switch supports two airflow direction options. Do not mix airflow types in a switch; you can use only a single airflow
direction in a switch. If the airflow directions are mismatched, you must correct the mismatched airflow direction.
• Airflow is from the I/O panel to the PSU—the red indicator is the normal airflow direction.
• Airflow is from the PSU to the I/O panel—the blue indicator is the reverse airflow direction.
All fans and PSUs in a configuration must be in the same airflow direction.
Environmental factors can decrease the amount of time required between fan replacements. Check the environmental factors regularly. An
increase in temperature and/or particulate matter in the air might affect performance—for example, new equipment installation).
CAUTION: Check the fans at six-month intervals and replace them as necessary. Regularly monitor the speeds of the fans to
accurately determine replacement intervals.
