(PX10, PX20, AutoBox, Tandem-AutoBox)
How to Check and Replace the Dust Filter of an Expansion
Box
The fans of various expansion boxes (PX10, PX20, AutoBox, Tandem-
AutoBox) have a dust filter. Check the filter periodically. If it is dirty,
you must replace it. Cleaning the dust filter is not sufficient to restore
the characteristics of a new one.
Objective
You have to check the dust filter for dirt at least once a year. More
frequent checks may be necessary depending on the operating
conditions.
Checking interval
NOTICE
A dirty dust filter blocks the input air stream and increases
the temperature in the box, which may shorten the life of
the hardware components.

If the filter is dirty, you need a new one: dSPACE provides a pack
