Installation Requirements - ZALMAN CNPS9900DF User Manual

4. Installation Requirements

1) Space Requirements
The installation requires unobstructed space of 110mm (width) x 140mm (length)
x 154mm (height) with the CPU as the central reference point. Before installation,
please check if memory modules or motherboard heatsinks will not have any
clearance issues with the CPU cooler.
2) Air Guide Removal
Air guides on enclosures must be removed, before the cooler's installation, for
they protrude into the cooler's required space.

3) Protective Brace Removal
Please unclip and remove the heatsink's plastic brace before installing the cooler.
4) Cooler Orientation
Orient the cooler so that the thinner heatsink is facing the
rear exhaust fan, while the thicker heatsink is facing the front
case fan (see right image).
5) Fan Protection Pad Removal & Cooler Handling
Remove the fan protection pad before you begin the installation process. Also, due to the sharp
heatsink fins, wearing gloves while handling the heatsink fins is strongly recommended.
