Unità ventola per sistema di raffreddamento Dell PowerEdge VG73K – modulo di raffreddamento sostitutivo, MPN VG73K

Replacement fan assembly designed for Dell PowerEdge servers with model identifier VG73K. This cooling system component restores airflow and thermal management in compatible PowerEdge units. Suitable for maintenance, repairs or server refurbishment, it helps maintain stable operating temperatures, prevent overheating and ensure reliable performance in data center or on-premise server environments.

Advantages

The fan assembly provides direct replacement for a failed or noisy cooling module, returning the server to manufacturer-intended airflow patterns and cooling efficiency. It is engineered to match the physical fit and connector type used in compatible Dell PowerEdge configurations, enabling straightforward installation without cabinet or chassis modification. By restoring proper cooling, the module supports consistent CPU and component temperatures, contributing to predictable performance and reduced risk of thermal throttling or hardware failure.

Suitable for

• Maintenance and routine server HVAC checks
• Repairing a PowerEdge unit with degraded or failed cooling
• Refurbishment of used servers for resale or redeployment
• Replacing a noisy fan to reduce operational sound levels in server rooms

Key specifications

• Compatibility: Designed for specific Dell PowerEdge server models using the VG73K fan module form factor
• Function: Active cooling fan assembly to restore chassis airflow and heat dissipation
• Form factor: Modular fan unit sized for in-chassis installation with standard mounting points
• Interface: Direct plug-in connector compatible with PowerEdge cooling backplane
• Thermal role: Supports CPU and component temperature regulation by maintaining specified airflow

How to use

Power down the server and disconnect power and external cables before beginning service. Open the chassis according to the server manufacturer's service manual, locate the failed fan module, and remove any retaining clips or screws. Disconnect the fan connector from the system board or cooling backplane and extract the old module. Position the replacement fan assembly into the same bay, connect the plug securely, and fasten it with the original clips or screws. Close the chassis, reconnect power, and verify that the server posts and reports normal fan operation in system management tools.

Recommendations

Replace the fan module with a compatible unit when noise levels increase, vibrations are felt, or system management reports fan faults. Verify firmware and system management settings after installation and monitor temperatures during initial operation. Keep spare fan modules on hand for critical environments and perform replacements during planned maintenance windows to avoid unexpected downtime.
