DL380 G2/G3 Redundant Fans Interchangeable?

[Andrew B Hall]

Are the Redundant Fan Kits or Spare Parts in the DL380 G3 able to be used in a DL380 G2.
It seems the are similiar units apart from the airflow capacity. (G2-33CFM and G3-60CFM.

We are unable to source the G2 units anymore.

Cheers.

Hello Andrew,

No they are not interchangeable.
Redundant Fan Kits is nothing but the hot plug fan itself which is in a set of 2,3 or 6.(I suppose).

Hi Andrew,

I'm not sure if this will prove economic but the only kits I could find were in the US. I did try E-Bay Australia.

Fan option kit for DL380G2 (3 fans in kit) - part number 225012-B21.

I hope this helps.
