Cleaning the
Enclosure Air
Filter
To maintain optimum air flow in the array enclosure, clean the air filter twice
per year, or more frequently if the environment is dusty or the array is installed
in an exposed area.
To clean the enclosure air filter:
1. Remove the front cover and top cover from the array enclosure (see the
figure below).
2. The air filter is a flexible piece of foam material located between the
front of the enclosure and the drives. Carefully flex and remove the
material from its mounting position in the enclosure.
3. Clean the filter with a vacuum cleaner.
4. Insert the clean filter back into its mounting position in the enclosure.
5. Replace and secure the top cover and front cover on the enclosure.
