Description

This compact soldering Fume Extractor uses a 80 mm fan and can be powered via USB-C. With the right cable, you can even power it from your phone! The carbon filter can very easily be replaced.

 

Needed Hardware and Electronics:

  • 80 mm cooling fan (Amazon*, Ebay)
  • USB-C breakout board with downstream (Amazon*, Ebay)
  • 5 mm carbon filter, optional (Amazon*, Ebay)
  • (6) M3 x 30
  • (2) M3 x 6
  • (2) M3 x 10 screws (Amazon*, Ebay)

Basic Assembly and Printing Notes:

  • the screws thread right into the plastic (no inserts), don't over-tighten them!
  • it is best if the filter tray is printed with a durable filament like PLA-CF or PETG
  • no supports are needed
  • The screws are not pictured in the Assembly Guide

Slide the fan into position. Route the fan cable through the hole before doing so.

2 M3 x 6 screws. The USB-C plug is facing down in this picture.
