Description

In case of a single fan failure, the other fans will increase their speed to keep the temperature under the threshold. This is applicable to all FortiGate models with multiple fans.

However, these fans are not field replaceable. In the case of failure it will be necessary to create an RMA ticket to request the replacement of the entire unit.

The exceptions are the FortiGate 7000 and FortiGate 5000 Series chassis systems where spare fans can be ordered and replaced on site.
