The double fan/battery module also guarantees sufficient cooling with just one functional fan.
If one of the fans fails, the remaining fan continues under full load. The failure also generates
an event in the PeripheralFaultTask and is signaled via a system variable (system variable
as of V4.2).
Fan failures are displayed and can be read out by means of the diagnostics buffer. With
overtemperature or fan failures, the SF LED flashes red/yellow (2 Hz) and the 7-segment
display shows the state "8".
NOTICE
The 80 mm clearances above and below the components must be observed. The unit
protects itself from overheating by shutting down.
The clearance below the component is calculated from the bottom edge of the module, i.e.
any fan will not be included in the clearance.
