Creality Halot Lite Fume Extractor Kit

Introduction:
3D printing enthusiasts, rejoice! Introducing the Creality Halot Lite Fume Extractor Kit, a project designed to enhance your 3D printing experience by effectively removing fumes and odors from your workspace. This cost-effective kit empowers you to assemble your own fume extractor using 3D printed components and readily available parts.

The Kit Components
The Creality Halot Lite Fume Extractor Kit comprises three 3D printed pieces, specifically designed for seamless integration with your Creality Halot Lite printer:

Tube Connector:
The tube connector serves as the interface between the fume extraction system and your Creality Halot Lite printer. By connecting a 60mm flexible tube to this connector, you establish a secure and efficient pathway for fumes to be extracted, ensuring a cleaner and healthier workspace. https://amzn.to/3Os9bcr

Tube Connector Adaptor:
The tube connector adaptor complements the tube connector, facilitating easy attachment and detachment to your printer. You can install it without drilling a new hole in the printer.

Fan Holder (Optional but Recommended):
The fan holder, an optional but highly recommended component, provides a stable and secure platform for a DC 24V 40x40mm fan. By incorporating the fan holder into your setup, you can optimize the airflow and achieve effective fume extraction during your 3D printing sessions.

Printer Modification
To install the Tube Connector Adaptor in the Creality Halot Lite printer, please follow the step-by-step instructions provided in the attached video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NZXq2fAOKD8
In the video, you will find detailed guidance on which screws need to be unscrewed to access the back of the chassis and mount the adaptor. It is important to exercise caution during this process to avoid unintentionally unscrewing the lamp heatsink. Take your time and ensure that you are unscrewing the correct screws according to the instructions provided in the video.

Once you have access to the air grid you simply install it with 4 M3 screws.

To fully leverage the fume extraction capabilities of the Creality Halot Lite Fume Extractor Kit, a simple modification to your printer is required. Specifically, you will need to replace the small fan near the resin vat with a DC 24V 40x40mm fan. This modification enables the extraction system to draw air directly from the resin chamber, redirecting it to the extraction tube and effectively removing fumes.

The installation process is relatively straightforward. Cut the two wires of the existing fan, and then solder the wires of the new fan in place. With the assistance of the 3D printed fan holder, you can easily install the new fan without the need for drilling new holes in your printer.

Additional Considerations and Safety Measures
While the fume extraction mod significantly improves the air quality during 3D printing, we recommend the use of an active carbon filter inside the resin chamber for additional protection. The active carbon filter further minimizes the presence of fumes, ensuring a cleaner and safer printing environment.

We want to emphasize that the modification process involves electrical work, which may void your printer's warranty. Therefore, it is crucial to exercise caution and seek assistance from a qualified professional if you are not experienced in working with electrical components. The user assumes full responsibility for any potential damage to the printer or personal injury resulting from the modification process.

Conclusion
The Creality Halot Lite Fume Extractor Kit empowers you to take control of your printing environment, making it cleaner and safer. With its easy installation, this kit provides a cost-effective solution to address fumes and odours during 3D printing.
