Your system supports two 2400 W or 2000 W AC PSUs or two PSUs (one is supported if the optional SATA drive cage is installed) NOTE: For more information, see the PowerEdge C4140 Technical Specs at .www.dell.com/poweredgemanuals. CAUTION: If two PSUs are installed, both the PSUs must have the same type of label. For example, Extended Power Performance (EPP) label.
NOTE: When two identical PSUs are installed, power supply redundancy (1+1 – with redundancy) is configured in system BIOS. In redundant mode, power is supplied to the system equally from both PSUs when Hot Spare is disabled. When Hot Spare is enabled, one of the PSUs is put into the sleep mode when system utilization is low in order to maximize efficiency. CAUTION: If two PSUs are used, they must be of the same type, and have the same maximum output power.
Figure 96. Installing a power supply unit blank Next steps Follow the procedure listed in After working inside your system. Removing a power supply unit Prerequisites CAUTION: The system needs one power supply unit (PSU) for normal operation. On power-redundant systems, remove and replace only one PSU at a time in a system that is powered on.
Installing a power supply unit Prerequisites 1. Follow the safety guidelines listed in Safety instructions on page 23. 2. For systems that support redundant PSU, ensure that both the PSUs are of the same type and have the same maximum output power.
