SUMMARY
01

SAFETY
Read the instructions before use
The use of an enclosure helps to contain the pollutant emissions
associated with the use of 3D printers. It is recommended to
always use ventilation during the printing process.
The filtration system uses a powerful fan. You should only turn it
on after the device is completely assembled with the protective
screw-on cover and filter. Failure to do so may result in injury.
Please use the electrical voltages recommended during the
assembly instructions to power the unit to avoid damage to the
electronic components.
Avoid contact with the electronic board during operation.
Before each print, make sure the filter is well positioned in its
casing.
Operating range of the filter 0-60°C max
The PrintBOX enclosure does not, under any circumstances,
dispense to operate the resin 3D printer with its original cover
safety.
The PrintBOX enclosure must be placed on the flat surface.

STEP 3 . CONNECTING FAN
4 pin connector female
Power supply
connector
To connect the fan wire to the electronic board alveoV0, the 4 pin
connectors on the fan wire must be plugged to the male 4 pins connector
on the same size as the power supply connector.
Manage the extra fan wire
length before closing to
avoid pinching.

07
Close the filtering case by screwing the
self-tapping screw from the filter slot to
the fan.
During the closing, you must ensure the
rail from the fan case part must
perfectly fit with the rail from the filter
case part to ensure a global airtight.
STEP 4 . CLOSING CASE
The head of the self-tapping screws
must go a little inside the plastic
(to avoid contact with the filter frame),
but avoid an excessive tightening.

08
STEP 5 . FILTERING SYSTEM AND FILTER INSTALLATION
Place the filtering case on the top of the enclosure with the screwdriver, provi-
ded in the bundle. The honeycomb fan grid must be in direct contact with the
top surface.

STEP 7 . HANDLES - ASSEMBLING DONE (WITHOUT OPTION V2)
Put the handles on each side of the box with the domed screw M4 18mm. If
the screwing is difficult, check if the square nuts M4 are well positioned on
handles.

11
The filtering system can be controlled by the V2 board provided pre-assembled.
It is necessary to have the high-pressure ALHP2425-H8 fan to run the board V2.
STEP 8 . OPTION V2
Unscrew the black
countersunk screw M3 and
gently pull the AlveoV0
cover to take it off.
Plug the wire to the board
AlveoV0, then replace the
cover back, let the wire go
through the small opening,
do not pinch it when
tightening the screw.

If you order the board V2 and the high-pressure H8 fan independently of the
enclosure 3D printer - BOX (PrintBOX). It is necessary to replace the provided
fan ALHP2425-H6 provided with the PrintBOX by the fan ALHP2425-H8 (keep
the label towards the filter).

NOTES
Filter life
The life of a filter is linked to many factors such as: the type of plastic used for
printing, the melting temperature, the concentration of nanoparticles and volatile
organic compounds, the humidity level...
We recommend replacing the filter according to the table below :
We recommend not exceeding 600 hours of use per filter.
Occasional useIntensive use
