Fan Duct + Bed Level Sensor Holder for Creality High Temperature Full Hotend Kit for Ender 3 (Pro)

thingiverse

I created my own fan duct and holder for my Ender 3 Pro since the part cooling solution of the new High Temperature Hotend (HTH) from Creality: https://www.creality3dofficial.com/de/products/high-temperature-full-hotend-kit is even worse than the stock one (in my opinion). It is inspired by (but not a copy or remix of) the famous Hero Me Gen 5 suite. - Creality Ender 3 Pro Hotend Plate - Creality High Temperture Hotend - 12 mm inductive bed pobe sensor - 5015 radial part cooling fan - Fan duct is mechanically separated from bed level sensor It is not modular, but you can adjust the duct height a little bit. The HTH itself is working great on my machine, you need to use the temperture sensor type: 5 : 100K thermistor - ATC Semitec 104GT-2/104NT-4-R025H42G (Used in ParCan, J-Head, and E3D) (4.7k pullup) in Marlin to achive correct temperature readings. I checked it with a Fluke 287 and a K-Type sensor: Marlin Temp Option 5 [°C] - Fluke 287 [°C] 170 - 169,9 180 - 179,3 190 - 190,0 200 - 199,9 210 - 210,2 220 - 220,9 230 - 231,6 240 - 242,4 250 - 251,9 260 - 262,5 270 - 272,4 280 - 283,6 290 - 292,8 300 - 304,0 I checked the fan duct airflow with some water at 100% and 40% fan speed (last two images). Performace is quiet good and I don't think you need the 100% fan speed often. The default nozzle of the HTH is from hardened steel (or something similar) and do not conduct the heat as well as a typical brass one. If you don't print abrasive materials you should change to a brass nozzle directly, otherwise you need to adjust printing tempeartures accordingly.
