6.1.1 Thermal management
The cooling system for the enclosure is designed to allow all components (power supplies,
EMMs, HDDs, SSDs etc.) to meet their full operating specifications. There may be up to four
fans in each power supply/fan module. This configuration provides N+1 fan redundancy,
meaning that the enclosure can be sufficiently cooled for normal operation even if one fan fails.
Firmware shall continuously monitor the temperature sensors within the enclosure and take
proper actions to throttle the fans in order to maintain optimal operating temperature.
6.1.2 Over-Temperature Shutdown
In order to prevent potential damage to the drives and subsequent loss of data, the power
supply has the capability to shut itself down or be shut down by the EMM, through embedded
firmware or host management software such as Dell™ Open Manage Storage Management, in
the event of an over-temperature condition. When the power supply incorporates its internal
thermal shutdown feature, it will automatically restart when the over temperature condition no
longer exists. Hysteresis of at least 5 degrees is employed to prevent a frequent toggling on
and off of the outputs.
