Sovol SV06/SV06 Plus Ultimate Motherboard Fan Mod 92mm

prusaprinters

This is the ultimate motherboard cover for your SV06 or SV06 Plus. It allows you to install an external 92mm fan (I used the Arctic F9 with great results) to run the motherboard absolutely silently. Designed to be used with this PSU mod: https://www.printables.com/model/564961-sovol-sv06sv06-plus-ultimate-psu-cover-92mm. Supports needed (organic recommended). Now comes in two styles! Type A mounts the fan on the inside of the printer. Easier to install, but can interfere with large aftermarket part coolers or cable supports.Type B mounts the fan on the outside of the printer. Doesn't interfere with anything, but requires transferring the motherboard to the new printed part.  Type A installation: Open motherboard box cover by removing the single bolt and remove the entire motherboard box from printer frame. Unscrew the two bolts holding the hinges on. Screw fan onto the outside of the new printed cover using four m5 course thread fan screws (Fan should be mounted pushing air into the motherboard box). Transfer the hinges to the new cover and re-install in reverse order. Connect fan to the buck converter output from the PSU mod and route cable away from moving parts. Type B installation: Open motherboard box cover by removing the single bolt and remove the entire motherboard box from printer frame. Unscrew the two bolts holding the hinges on and remove cover. Unbolt stock fan from cover and set aside (this allows air to flow freely into the box). Cut all zip ties holding wires into the motherboard box. Remove the four M3 bolts holding the motherboard in and remove motherboard. Screw fan onto the outside of the new printed box using four m5 course thread fan screws (Fan should be mounted pulling air out of the motherboard box). Transfer motherboard to the new printed box and reinstall with bolts. Connect fan to the buck converter output from the PSU mod, route cables in the proper channels, and install new zip ties. Re-install cover and box in reverse order. You will need:Either of these mods completed:https://www.printables.com/model/564961-sovol-sv06sv06-plus-ultimate-psu-cover-92mmhttps://www.printables.com/model/750299-sovol-sv06sv06-plus-ultimate-octoprint92mm-fan-psu1x 92mm fan (The Arctic F9 works great and is cheap)4-8x m5 course thread fan screwsSome small wire to connect the motherboard fan to the LM2596 converter in the psu mod (I used breadboard jumper wires since they can plug directly in to the fan connector)Optional, but recommended: purchase or print a fan grill to cover the outside of the fan
