An information handling system (IHS) includes a node having a node enclosure provisioned with at least one heat-generating component. A device that provides infrastructure support to the node contains an air mover is attached to the node enclosure. The air mover creates cooling air flow through the node to absorb and transfer thermal energy from the at least one heat-generating component. An air filter enclosure is attachable over an air intake of the device. The air filter enclosure has a top slot sized to receive a manually inserted air filter into an air filter receiving frame. Replacement of the air filter can be achieved without tools. The air filter filters the air prior to the air entering the node enclosure to remove impurities and possible particulates that can damage the internal components of the device.
An information handling system (IHS) comprising:
An air filter enclosure for an information handling system (IHS), the air filter enclosure comprising:
