Anycubic Photon Rear 92mm Fan Filter/Adapter

thingiverse

This is a custom-made adapter designed for using a 92mm fan in place of the rear panel on an Anycubic Photon 3D Printer. The main purpose of this adapter is to install an activated carbon filter element that draws fumes out of the printer through the element. The carbon filters I use are originally from Holmes Air purifiers, cut down to fit inside the housing. If necessary, the housing design can be easily modified to accommodate additional layers of filter material. As it stands now, this adapter supports two layers of filter material. Assembly requires normal PC fan screws and includes nut-retention for an M3 screw securing the fan to adapter joint. Accessing other joints should be straightforward from both sides. This adapter comes in several versions: * 92mm adapter with network extension and switch support (for a fan switch, if needed) * 92mm adapter with network extension only (fan wired directly or to a separate power supply) * 92mm adapter with switch only (no network extension support) * 92mm adapter only - no switch or adapter There's also a filter housing that screws onto the fan and a filter cover that snaps onto the housing. Due to this snap fit, I recommend printing the housing vertically to prevent breaks at layer lines. Alternatively, you can reinforce this area with resin and cure it with UV. A 92mm fan to 4-inch duct adapter is also available for directing air outside. However, please note that confirmation of fit for the duct side could not be verified, so I've done my best based on available information. The network adapter used was purchased from Amazon, while similar products can be found at adafruit. Fan screws are ones I already had, and filter material came from Amazon as well. A version using a 120mm fan is also in the works and will be uploaded separately. I hope this helps someone!
