Solution

In order to get the serial number for the Fan Tray module, we need to physically remove the Fan Tray module from chassis, and then read the serial number from the serial number ID label.

 

Below picture shows the serial number ID label location of the QFX5100-96S-FANAFO module, and it's the same location for the AFI module.
