additional Indicator and Control Mount for Radiator Mount for CNC3020

thingiverse

The previous simple version water pump and fans are always running at full speed, which is unnecessary, loud, and annoying. Additional to the already mounted parts with the parts provided here, a temperature controller board can be installed, and if desired, a flow- and temperature indicator too. The board holder is secured above the radiator holder using the same bolts. A case for the temperature indicator is glued onto this holder. The flow indicator is glued on top of the case. The indicator case has two holes to mount two UV-LEDs to illuminate the vane. The goal to not increase the size of the machine was achieved. All parts are mounted within the original outer dimensions of the device. To control the pump, the controller board must be a type for 2- or 3-wire fans. A 4-wire controller will not work because the pump doesn't have a pwm-control-input. You can watch a clip of the finished extension here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BFLYIL3ggew.
