10.2. Cleaning the Filter Mat
The filter mat is inserted in the filter mat holder at the front side of the fan slide-in module (Fig. 40, pos. 4). The soiling of
the filter mat is caused by the pollution of the operating environment. A heavily soiled filter mat can cause excessive
heating of the device. For this reason we recommend to clean the filter mat as often as necessary. The filter mat can be
replaced during operation of the system.
