  • Page 11: Chapter 3: Site Preparations

    Storing Components Site Selection Install Dell EMC equipment in restricted access areas. A restricted access area is one where service personnel can only gain access using a special tool, lock, key or other means of security. Also, access is controlled by the authority responsible for the location.
  • Page 12: Grounding (Optional)

    Grounding (Optional) Use the S4810–ON in a common bond network (CBN). Connect the grounding cables as described in Install the S4810-ON. Fans and Airflow The S4810–ON fans support two airflow options. Be sure to order the fans suitable to support your site’s ventilation. Use a single type of airflow fan in your system. Do not mix reverse and normal airflows in a single S4810–ON chassis.

    System power-on Supply power to the S4810–ON after it is mounted in a rack or cabinet. Dell Technologies recommends reinspecting your system before powering up. Verify that: • The equipment is properly secured to the rack and properly grounded. • The equipment rack is properly mounted and grounded.
  • Page 20: Chapter 5: Power Supplies

    Power supplies The S4810–ON supports two hot-swappable power supply units (PSUs) with integrated fans that provide cooling for the system. The S4810–ON supports AC power supplies with two air-flow directions (normal and reversed). Two PSUs are required for full redundancy, but the system can operate with a single PSU. NOTE: If you use a single PSU, install a blank plate in the other PSU slot.
  • Page 21: Ac Power Supply Installation

    AC power supply installation To install an AC power supply, follow these steps. NOTE: The PSU slides into the slot smoothly. Do not force a PSU into a slot as this action may damage the PSU or the S4810–ON chassis. NOTE: Ensure that the PSU is correctly installed.

  • Page 23: Chapter 6: Fans

    Fans The S4810–ON comes from the factory with one power supply unit (PSU) and two fan modules installed in the system. If two or more fans are installed and running, the fan modules are hot-swappable. NOTE: To run the system, both slots must have operating fan units. If a module is not installed in each slot (either as part of the PSU or as an independent fan module), the system shuts down in one minute.
