Installing the Passive Heat Sink

If your server board is installed into the Intel Server Platform SR1475NH1-E, a custom
copper 1U passive heat sink is installed. The heat sink must be installed with the solid
copper sides of it facing to the left and to the right of the chassis. This is necessary
because the air from the fans at the front of the chassis must be able to flow from front to
back between the copper plates on the other sides of the heat sink.
The heat sink has Thermal Interface Material (TIM) located on the bottom of it. Use
caution when you unpack the heat sink so you do not damage the TIM.
1. Set the heat sink over the processor, lining up the four captive screws with the four
mounting holes surrounding the processor (see
2. Loosely screw in the captive screws on the heat sink corners in a diagonal manner. Do
no fully tighten one screw before tightening another (see
