Cooler Lenovo ThinkSystem FAN Option Kit 4F17A12349

The Lenovo ThinkSystem FAN Option Kit (4F17A12349) is a cooler designed to improve airflow and cooling efficiency in ThinkSystem servers. Available in black and silver, this fan option kit is compatible with Lenovo SR650 servers and other ThinkSystem models that require an additional fan module for proper thermal management. It supports configurations that use 2nd Generation Intel processors where an extra fan option is required.

Advantages

The fan kit increases system cooling capacity and helps maintain stable operating temperatures under heavy workloads. It supports hot-swap installation in compatible chassis and integrates with the server's existing fan arrangement to provide N+1 redundancy when used in the recommended configurations. The kit's design matches ThinkSystem styling and fits Lenovo-specified fan slots.

Suitable for

• Lenovo ThinkSystem SR650 servers (2nd Gen processor configurations)
• ThinkSystem models requiring an additional hot-swap fan module
• Data center and rack server environments needing improved airflow
