When assembled, the Processor Wind Tunnel will look similar to the figure below. The dashed
lines over CPU2 indicate that this processor assembly is only required when configuring the server
with two processors. The direction of the airflow is indicated by the arrow at Figure 19, A.
Replacing a Processor
1. Observe the safety and ESD precautions at the beginning of this chapter and the additional
cautions given here.
2. Unplug the processor fan cable from the server board.
3. Detach the fan assembly from the PWT retention mechanism by unlatching the clips at the
bottom of the fan assembly and then lifting up on the fan assembly.
4. Remove the metal retention mechanism clips from the bottom of the retention mechanism.
Unhook each side of each clip and disengage the center latch.
5. Remove the heat sink by slightly spreading the sides of the retention mechanism and lifting
straight up on the heat sink.
6. Raise the socket lever on the processor socket.
7. Remove the processor from the socket.
8. Align the pins of the replacement processor with the socket, and insert the processor into the
socket. Lower the socket lever completely.
NOTE
Make sure the alignment triangle mark and the alignment triangle cutout
align correctly.
