The XL Enclosure is expertly crafted for seamless integration with your printer, both physically and in terms of software. Since it's directly connected to the printer's mainboard, you can conveniently configure useful functions via the printer's LCD touch - panel. Set filtration performance and post - print filtration duration, especially when printing with materials like ASA or PCCF. This way, the system keeps running to filter out all particles from the print job. You can also control LED strips and easily check the HEPA filter's lifespan in the printer's menu.
Print advanced materials effortlessly with the Original Prusa XL Enclosure. It not only simplifies printing with certain materials but also offers numerous benefits. The advanced filtration system with a 99.9% efficient HEPA filter reduces odors and stops ultra - fine particles (UFPS) from spreading into the air. The XL printer automatically manages filtration, drawing air from below and blowing it through the HEPA filter out of the enclosure. You can check the enclosure's internal temperature using the thermometer on the door (for indication) or the printer display.
For materials like PLA and PETG that produce fewer particles and odors, filtration can be turned off to extend the HEPA filter's life but can be manually activated. The XL printer monitors filter usage and alerts you when it's time to replace it. You can order a new filter from our e - shop. The enclosure comes with an additional LED strip synchronized with your XL printer, which not only lights up the print area but also indicates the printer's status.
The package includes all plastic parts, so you don't need to print anything yourself. Just replace some plastic components of your printer, such as parts of the nextruder or the belt holder, with the heat - resistant PCCF parts in the box. Note that the 3D printer is not part of the package.
### Features
- **Stable Printing Environment**: The enclosure creates a stable, warm environment, protecting the printer from drafts and cold air. Ideal for high - temperature materials prone to warping, like PCCF, Nylon, and PP. It also reduces dust on moving parts, minimizing maintenance.
- **Advanced Filtration System**: Useful when printing with materials that generate particles, it cuts down on odors and prevents UFPS from spreading.
- **High - Quality Components**: The metal frame and PETG side and top panels ensure durability. The frame has mounting elements for add - ons and good cable management. The additional LED strip is connected to the XL printer and serves as a status indicator.
- **Bellows Cover**: Designed for materials like PLA that perform poorly in high temperatures. The magnetic bellows cover can be quickly folded for better airflow, giving you full access to the print area without taking up extra space.
### Specifications
- Dimensions on the printer: 700 mm (w) × 900 mm (h) × 720 mm (d)
- Enclosure type: Passive, heated by the 3D printer's heatbed
- Weight: 15.7 kg (34.6 lbs)
- Assembly: Directly on the printer, removable if needed
### Includes
- The basic package has all components for building the enclosure, PCCF replacement parts, a temperature sensor, an LED strip, and documentation.
- If you choose the option with assembly tools, you'll get the above plus the tools.
Using the Original Prusa XL Enclosure is a breeze. First, assemble it directly on your printer. The package comes with all the necessary parts, and if you choose the tool - included option, you'll have everything you need to get started. Replace some of the plastic components of your printer with the PCCF parts in the box. This will make your printer more suitable for high - temperature printing.
When it comes to using the enclosure during printing, you can configure the filtration system and LED settings through the printer's LCD touch - panel. If you're printing with materials like ASA or PCCF, set the post - print filtration duration so that the system can filter out all the particles generated during the print job. For materials like PLA and PETG, you can turn off the filtration to save the HEPA filter's life, but you can always activate it manually if you want.
Keep an eye on the temperature inside the enclosure. You can use the thermometer on the door or check the printer display. Also, the XL printer will let you know when it's time to replace the HEPA filter. Just order a new one from our e - shop.
Here are some maintenance tips. The enclosure helps reduce dust on the printer's moving parts, but it's still a good idea to clean it regularly. The bellows cover is made of high - quality materials, but if it gets dirty, you can gently clean it. The metal frame and PETG panels are durable, but avoid using abrasive cleaners on them. With proper use and maintenance, your Original Prusa XL Enclosure will serve you well for a long time.
