Replacing the fan on a Nexia

This article explains how to replace a fan in a Nexia product. The Nexia has a single fan located on the right side of the
chassis (when viewed from the front). The fan should be replaced if it makes excessive noise (especially grinding or
groaning noises) or if it doesn't spin at all when the unit is powered on.

Replacement fans can be obtained from Biamp Systems, either as a warranty item or a spare part order. However, there
are several different fans available, depending on when the Nexia was manufactured. Please take note of the serial
number of the Nexia and call Biamp's Service department to ensure you receive the correct fan for your Nexia.

Required Tools

The following items are required to replace a Nexia fan:

• #1 Phillips screwdriver
