wherein the first door and the second door are configured to be operated independently of each other.
6 . The cooling system of claim 1 , wherein the filter unit further comprises:
a first panel door and a second panel door, through which the blocking panel is movable,
wherein the first panel door and the second panel door are separated from each other.
7 . The cooling system of claim 1 ,
wherein the blocking panel includes a first blocking panel and a second blocking panel, and
wherein the first filter or the second filter is located between the first blocking panel and the second blocking panel.
8 . The cooling system of claim 1 , wherein the first filter part and the second filter part are stacked in a vertical direction.
9 . The cooling system of claim 1 , wherein the filter unit further comprises:
a separation guide panel between the first filter part and the second filter part and separating the first filter part from the second filter part.
10 . A cooling system comprising:
an air supplier comprising a fan configured to suck air; and
a filter unit providing an air intake path and an air exhaust path,
wherein the filter unit comprises:
a first filter part including a first filter and providing a first panel slot;
a second filter part including a second filter and providing a second panel slot; and
a blocking panel,
wherein the blocking panel is located in one of the first panel slot or the second panel slot and is configured to block a path of air through one of the first filter part or the second filter part, and
wherein the air intake path extends in a vertical direction along a region adjacent to at least one of the first panel slot and the second panel slot.
11 . The cooling system of claim 10 , wherein the filter unit further comprises:
a first pipe connected to the air intake path; and
a second pipe connected to the air exhaust path.
12 . The cooling system of claim 10 , wherein the air supplier comprises:
a thermoelectric cooler.
13 . The cooling system of claim 10 ,
wherein the blocking panel includes a first blocking panel and a second blocking panel, and
wherein the first filter or the second filter is located between the first blocking panel and the second blocking panel.
14 . The cooling system of claim 10 , wherein the first filter part and the second filter part are stacked in the vertical direction.
15 . A cooling system comprising:
an air supplier comprising a fan configured to suck air; and
a filter unit providing an air intake path and an air exhaust path,
wherein the filter unit comprises:
a first filter part including a first filter and providing a first panel slot;
a second filter part stacked on the first filter part, the second filter part including a second filter and providing a second panel slot; and
a blocking panel,
wherein the blocking panel is located in one of the first panel slot or the second panel slot and is configured to block a path of air through one of the first filter part or the second filter part, and
wherein the air intake path extends in a vertical direction along a region adjacent to at least one of the first panel slot and the second panel slot.
16 . The cooling system of claim 15 ,
wherein when the blocking panel is located in the first panel slot, the path of air extends from the air intake path through the second filter to the air exhaust path, and
wherein when the blocking panel is located in the second panel slot, the path of air extends from the air intake path through the first filter to the air exhaust path.
17 . The cooling system of claim 15 , wherein the filter unit further comprises:
a first pipe connected to the air intake path; and
a second pipe connected to the air exhaust path.
18 . The cooling system of claim 15 , wherein the air supplier comprises:
a thermoelectric cooler.
19 . The cooling system of claim 15 ,
wherein the blocking panel includes a first blocking panel and a second blocking panel, and
wherein the first filter or the second filter is located between the first blocking panel and the second blocking panel.
20 . The cooling system of claim 15 , wherein the filter unit further comprises:
