IBM 97P5253 server / storage / networking hardware Server Hardware / Parts

The IBM 97P5253 is a 595W AC power supply with integrated fan assembly, CCIN 51AF, built for the I/O drawer of pSeries systems including the 7026 and 6283. It is a hot-swap unit designed to be fitted in a redundant pair inside the I/O drawer, so it can be pulled and replaced without powering down the drawer’s attached storage and adapters. I/O drawer power supplies of this class are one of the most commonly replaced field units on systems of this generation, since the drawer’s fan and power subsystem run continuously and see more duty cycles than most other components. Confirm the exact drawer type and model this is destined for before ordering, since I/O drawer power supplies are not universally interchangeable across unrelated pSeries families. IBM equipment of this generation remains in service across many established data-centre deployments, and genuine spares like this one are a routine requirement for maintaining full redundancy. Tech-Star (UK-based, shipped worldwide) stocks IBM components to support ongoing server and network maintenance projects. Please contact our sales team for current stock and pricing.
