VOXEL X-Filter (HEPA 13 and Activated Carbon Combo Filter)

I bought 3 of these along with 4 bento boxes. Ran some ABS and still smelled it 20ft away. Very disappointing. I had high hopes.

Even have a good door seal in place.

Im thinking the bento box just doesnt have much air flow and the X filter should have had higher density foam wrapped around it.

Maybe a bento box with push/pull fans would have been better. Theres plenty of room at the top.

Just get a couple of these.

For the silicone wipers mentioned here, they work great for factory nozzles but I had a bad experience using it with the revo nozzles. It just smeared the filament across the flat face of the nozzle… Used a plus 4 wiper cut down.

PFFFF

The HEPA/Carbon combo filter looks good. I have no way to test them to add to that list, but the parts look like they should work.

I also picked up a bento box and that’s pretty sweet, too. I did add a hole to the fan mount so the wires would pass cleanly into the base, but nice unit. Dropped right in.

I got mine, they accidentally sent two full shipments since the first one didn’t go through and then they sent out a fast one.

I would order one but when it $35 AUD just for shipping it’s not worth it. Will look for equivalent local suppliers.

have you received them Willem?? and didn’t you have to pay customer taxes? (importing them in holland)

How about an european based reseller ?

i have a Bento Box running and will be adding this design to circulate the chamber air for printing ASA and ABS, this will also keep the temperature higher and I’m hoping for even better prints :slight_smile:

@VOXELPLA how long can the filters be stored? Are they packaged in a way that they are still usable after a few months?

Yes taxes that is correct with shipping costs it would have been twice as expensive.
Voxel had not settled the taxes there would have been additional administration costs from UPS axes.
Total Taxes and administration costs handling it came to 19.55 euros extra. :slight_smile: on top of the purchase price with shipping costs.
For 5 pieces.
So this was the first and last time I buy that via Voxel.

so it became quite expensive! that’s really disappointing

I can’t speak to how long directly but they are sealed in plastic and packed in individual cardboard boxes.

Thanks, so they’re not vacuum sealed as it looks.

I’m asking because @VOXELPLA mentioned that ā€˜The activated carbon will be less efficient after 2 months.’ and shipping to Europe is quite expensive. Would only make sense to order a bigger quantity and if they are still good after longer storage.

They wouldn’t be good for vacuum sealing as part of the filter enclosure is foam that would compact from pressure. That might compromise it but not sure.

They could always be stored in some other outer container impermeable to contaminants. I believe it’s just activated charcoal and filter material so they might not need a whole lot of protection like something like desiccant that will grab any water it can and lose capacity.

Yes, you can store up to a year if you don’t open the plastic warp.

Any Place to order in EU? Shipping on would be nearly 50$ to Germany…

Still not sure why you wouldn’t make your own. It’s an easy print and the expense of the filters and charcoal is minimal when you figure how many you will get out of the bag.

Plus you can vacuum seal the charcoal in a filament dry bag easily.
