Figure 19 Closing the processor socket CAUTION: To allow heat sink to draw as much heat as possible from the processor base, there must be good contact between the heat sink base and the top of the processor. To ensure good contact, you must apply thermal interface material. To apply the thermal grease compound: 1. Use the alcohol pad provided in the spare part kits or a clean cloth dipped in rubbing alcohol to clean the contact surface on the heat sink and on the new processor. Wipe the contact surfaces several times to make sure that no particles or dust contaminants are evident. CAUTION: HP recommends using Shin-Etsu X-23-7783D thermal grease compound for your ProLiant server. 2. Apply all the grease to the top of the processor in one of the following patterns to insure even distribution. Figure 20 Processor bottom CAUTION: Never touch the bottom of the processor; any contaminant could prevent the mounting pads from making contact with the socket.
