Installing the Processor Heatsink Module (2U)

  1. Align pin 1 of the PHM with the printed triangle on the processor socket.

  2. Make sure all four PEEK nuts of the heatsink (marked A, B, C, and D) are aligned with the threaded fasteners (marked a, b, c, and d), then gently place the heatsink on top of the processor socket.

  3. Press all four rotating wires outwards and make sure that the heatsink is securely latched into the processor socket.

  4. With a T30 bit torque driver set to a force of 8.0 in-lbf (0.904 N-m), gradually tighten the four screws to ensure even pressure. You can start with any screw, but make sure to tighten the screws in a diagonal pattern.

    Important: Do not use a force greater than 8.0 in-lbf (0.904 N-m). Exceeding this force may over-torque the screw, causing damage to the processor, heatsink, and screw.

  5. Examine all corners to ensure that the PHM is firmly attached to the socket.
