Zusammenfassung:A fan housing includes a shroud defining an air passageway. A housing member is located adjacent the air passageway and moveably coupled to the shroud such that the housing member is moveable relative to the shroud between an operating position and a service position. A fan housing is defined by the housing member, whereby the fan housing is inaccessible when the housing member is in the operating position and the fan housing is accessible when the housing member is in the service position. The shroud and housing member may be coupled to an information handling system chassis and adjacent a heat producing component. A fan may then be positioned in the fan housing when the housing member is in the service position. The housing member is then moved to the operating position and the fan is operated in order to cool the heat producing component.
