How to Install HPE ProLiant DL380/DL560 Gen11 2U High Performance Heat Sink Kit

  1. Power down the server, unplug all cables, and ground yourself to prevent static discharge before handling internal components.
  2. Open the server chassis and locate the existing heat sink assembly. If you are replacing an old heatsink, carefully detach it using the standard mounting screws and disconnect any attached fan or thermal sensor cables as needed.
  3. Align the new heat sink kit with the Gen11 mounting points on the processor(s) and chassis rails. Ensure that the heat sink makes full contact with the processor package and that any retention brackets are seated correctly.
  4. Secure the heat sink using the included mounting hardware in a balanced, cross-pattern sequence to evenly compress the interface. Tighten to the recommended torque per your server's service guide to avoid over-tightening.
  5. Reconnect any cables or sensors that were detached, reseat the motherboard and covers, reconnect power, and boot the server. Enter the system health or BIOS interface to confirm proper thermal readings and ensure fans are operating within normal ranges.
