1.3.8 Cooling Modules
PN: GAL-9273ECFanMod
The subsystem is equipped with two (2), dual-fan, redundant cooling
modules. They are installed in the rear section of the PSU modules. Two (2)
LEDs on the PSU faceplate indicate the cooling fan status.
Intelligent Dual Speed Operation
The cooling fans in the cooling module operate with two rotation speeds.
Under normal conditions, the cooling fans run at the low speed, which is
sufficient for maintaining airflow across components. Under the following
conditions, cooling fans raise their rotation speed to increase airflow:
1. Component Failure: if one cooling fan, a PSU, or a temperature
2. Elevated Temperature: if the temperature reading breaches the
3. During the subsystem initialization stage, the cooling fans operate
