Page 31: Installing The Motherboard
Permanent and Optional Standoffs Standoffs prevent short circuits by creating space between the motherboard and the chassis surface. The SC113 chassis includes permanent standoffs in locations used by most motherboards. These standoffs accept the rounded Phillips head screws included in the SC113 accessories packaging. - Page 32 SC113 Chassis Manual Installing the Motherboard Review the documentation that came with your motherboard. Become familiar with component placement, requirements, and precautions. Disconnect the power supply and lay the chassis on a flat surface. Open the chassis cover. If necessary, remove the riser card. To do this, remove the two screws hold- ing the card in place and lift the card from the chassis.

(like SC113TQ-700CB) include one full height slot. "U" model chassis include two full-height expansion slots and one low-profile expansion slot. Note: You must use a riser card to install expansion cards into any SC113 chassis. Riser cards are sold separately. - Page 34 SC113 Chassis Manual Riser Card Riser Card Bracket Screws Figure 5-8: Chassis with a Riser Card Installing an Expansion Card Confirm that you have the correct riser card for your chassis model and the add-on card includes a standard bracket.

Page 36: Checking The Air Flow
SC113 Chassis Manual Checking the Air Flow Check the Airflow Make sure there are no objects to obstruct airflow in and out of the server. In addition, if you are using a front bezel, make sure the bezel's filter is replaced periodically. -
Page 37: System Fans
Four heavy duty fans provide cooling for the chassis. These fans circulate air through the chassis as a means of lowering the chassis' internal temperature. The SC113 chassis contains counter-rotating fans. Each fan unit is actually made up of two fans joined back-to-back, which rotate in opposite directions. This counter-ro- tating action generates exceptional airflow and works to dampen vibration levels. - Page 38 SC113 Chassis Manual Figure 5-11: Chassis Fans The SC113 Chassis includes four pre-installed fans. Two additional open slots are available so that. up to two more fans may be added. Replacing a System Fan If necessary, open the chassis while the power is running to determine which fan has failed.
-
Page 39: Power Supply
If the power supply unit fails, the system will shut down and you will need to replace the unit. Replacement units can be ordered directly from Supermicro (see contact information in the Preface). As there is only one power supply unit in the SC113 Chassis, power must be completely removed from the server before removing and replacing the power supply unit for whatever reason. - Page 40 SC113 Chassis Manual Release Tab Figure 5-12: Removing the Power Supply Replacing the Power Supply Power down the server and unplug the power cord. If your chassis includes a redundant power supply (at least two power modules), you can leave the server running and remove only one power supply.
