Installing The Phm Into The Cpu Socket - Supermicro SuperServer SYS-111E-FWTR User Manual

Installing the PHM into the CPU Socket

1. Locate four threaded fasteners (a, b, c, d) on the CPU socket.
2. Align PEEK nut A, which is next to the triangle (Pin 1) on the heatsink, against threaded
fastener a on the CPU socket. Then align PEEK nuts B, C, and D on the heatsink
against threaded fasteners b, c, and d on the CPU socket, making sure that all PEEK
nuts on the heatsink are properly aligned with the correspondent threaded fasteners on
the CPU socket.
3. Once they are aligned, gently place the heatsink on top of the CPU socket, making sure
that each PEEK nut is properly attached to its corresponding threaded fastener.
4. Press all four rotating wires outwards and make sure that the heatsink is securely
latched onto the CPU socket.
5. With a T30 screwdriver, tighten all PEEK nuts in the sequence of A, B, C, and D with
even pressure. To avoid damaging the processor or socket, do not use excessive force
when tightening the PEEK nuts. (For best durability, 8in-lbf torque is recommended.)
6. Examine all corners of the heatsink to ensure that the PHM is firmly attached to the
CPU socket.
