Optional air filters

You can purchase an optional NEBS compliant air filter kit that includes a front filter that fits over the front of the chassis
and two filters for the side cool air intakes. These filters are not required for normal operation but can be added if you
require air filtration.
The air filters should be inspected regularly. If dirty or damaged, the filters should be disposed of and replaced. The air
filters can be fragile and should be handled carefully.

AC PSUs and supplying AC power to the chassis

The AC version of the FortiGate-7040E chassis back panel includes three hot swappable AC power supply units (PSUs).
At least two PSUs (PWR1 and PWR2) must be connected to power. PWR4 is a backup power supply and provides 2+1
redundancy. You can add a fourth power supply to PWR3 to provide a second backup power supply and 2+2
redundancy. See FortiGate-7040E back panel on page 8
All PSUs should be connected to AC power. To improve redundancy you can connect each power supply to a separate
power source.
Use a C15 Power cable, supplied with the chassis, to connect power to each PSU C16 power connector. C15/C16 power
connectors are used for high temperature environments and are rated up to 120°C.
