The fans of Tandem-AutoBox have a dust filter. 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. If the dust filter
is dirty, you must replace it.
N O T I C E
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.
dSPACE provides a pack of three replacement dust filters (order
number: FILTER_PAD_ABX). For the Tandem-AutoBox two dust filters
are required. For instructions, refer to How to Check and Replace the
Dust Filter of an Expansion Box on page 50.

Tandem-AutoBox Dimension Drawings
For mounting you should add approx. 0.1 m (3.9 in.) space
to the outer dimensions of the Tandem‑AutoBox. This is to
allow the Tandem‑AutoBox to vibrate under extreme
conditions without bumping against other devices.
