Installation Guidelines
- Ensure the power supply unit is fully de-energized before attempting to remove or install the fan kit.
- Verify that the mounting surface is clean and free of debris to ensure an airtight seal between the fan housing and the power supply chassis.
- Align the mechanical housing carefully with the existing chassis mounting points to prevent vibration during operation.
- Ensure the electrical connector is fully seated and locked into the power distribution rail.
- After installation, perform a brief test run to confirm the fan is spinning freely and that there are no obstructions to the airflow path.
FAQ
Is this fan kit compatible with all SIMATIC S5 power supplies?
No, this kit is specifically designed for the 6ES5 955-3LC4X, 6ES5 955-3LF4X, 6ES5 955-3NC4X, and 6ES5 955-3NF4X series. Please verify your power supply model number before installation.
Does the fan require external wiring?
No, the unit utilizes a plug-in connector that draws power directly from the internal power supply distribution rail, eliminating the need for external cabling.
