Intake
Most cool air enters the chassis through the chassis front panel and all warm air exhausts out the back. For optimal
cooling allow 100 mm of clearance at the front and back of the chassis and 50 mm of clearance at the sides. Under
these conditions 80% of cooling air comes from the front panel air intake and 20% from the left and right side panels
and 100% exits out the back. Side clearance is optional and chassis cooling will be sufficient if no side clearance is
available.

Optional air filter

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-7060E chassis front panel includes four hot swappable AC PSUs. At least three PSUs
(1, 2, and 3) must be connected to power. PSUs 4 to 6 provide 3+1 , 3+2, and 3+3 redundancy. See
front panel on page 7
All PSUs should be connected to AC power. To improve redundancy you can connect each PSU to a separate power
source.
