SAFETY
Read all instructions before using
3D printer enclosures contain harmful emissions from 3D
printing. It is advised to always turn the filtering system on
during the printing process.
The filtering system is powered by a high-pressure fan. Do not
turn on the fan before full assembly is done with the protective
grid and the P3D filter. Failure to comply with this instruction
can cause injuries.
Please use recommended electrical voltages to power electronic
board, as indicated in the assembly instructions to prevent
damage.
Do not touch the electronic board in operation.
Before each print, make sure the extensible hose is well
connected to both connectors from AlveoPRO top cover and
enclosure panel.
Filter operational range 0-60°C max

NOTES
HEPA Filter P3D lifetime:
Filter working life is associated with many factors including filament type, melting
temperature, the concentration of nanoparticles and VOCs, ambient humidity...
We suggest replacing HEPA filter P3D according to the following table:
We do not recommend going above 1500 hours of use before to replace the filter.
Intensive use Occasional use
