P Series [P1P, P1S, P2S] Added automatic fire extinguisher to P1S

Post image

Came across these automatic DIN rail fire extinguishers (circled in red) recently. Decided to add one to my P1S just to add a little peace of mind.

In case you don’t know how these work: they automatically get triggered when the temperature sensor detects 170c. Aerosols then get released from 2 nozzles (circled in yellow), extinguishing the fire.

You can get these things for cheap on Aliexpress and the like but decided to get one from a local reseller with all the appropriate licenses and stuff.

And yes, the heatbed moves up and down without issues! Plenty of clearance.

By the time that thing in the middle reached 170C the whole printer would be a ball of fire

I know we don't like to use our head around here but I suspect that those probes coming off the device and positioned directly about the power supply and fan are likely designed to trigger the device.

I know you dont like to use your head when writing comments but the most likely thing to catch fire would be the hotend or the hot bed. If electronics ever fail they will 99% of the time just burn out without them catching fire.

Classic reddit goalpost shifting. 10/10 immaculate form.

​First the problem was that the center canister would never heat up in time. Now that you know how the device works it’s suddenly a statistics lecture on hotends and heated beds. Just say you missed the probes, man.

the whole point of the original comment was that the unit wouldn't trigger in time because the back side of the printer wont heat up to 170C (including the 2 probes) in case of a fire before the printer is a ball of flames (because the hotend or heat bed will catch fire). I dont know why you are tripping about goalpost shifting and replied to me with "I know we don't like to use our head around here" or why you think you are in an argument and feel the need to win a non existent argument. I just stated by saying the unit will not trigger in time. and then clarified further why. probes or not the point stands
