Air shroud, Removing the air shroud from the PEM

Page 49 highlights

Air shroud The air shroud aerodynamically directs the airflow across the entire sled. The airflow passes through all the critical parts of the sled thus allowing increased cooling. The PowerEdge MX840c sled has: ● Air shroud on the processor expansion module (PEM) ● Air shroud on the system board Removing the air shroud from the PEM Prerequisites CAUTION: Never operate your system with the air shroud removed. The system may get overheated quickly, resulting in shutdown of the system and loss of data. 1. Follow the safety guidelines listed in the Safety instructions section. 2. Follow the procedure listed in the Before working inside your sled section. Steps Hold the edges of the air shroud and lift it up and away from the sled. Figure 19.
