Summary
Yet another power supply cover but with a place holder for solid state relay and XT60 connectors.
The original folger 2020 3D printer design has the supplied the power supply (S-260-12) hard wired to the power plug and whenever plugged in the extruder fan would be on. Also the power supply fan was running for no good reason. There is nothing wrong with this solution, I just like to make things more complicated. My goal was to only have the power supply only on during the print and cool down and controlled by the orange Pi (same as the raspberry Pi). The ramps / arduino is powered by the USB connector which allows you to remotely turn on and off the power supply via a 5V dc output. The output activates the solid state relay allowing 120VAC (could be 220VAC) to reach the power supply.
Parts
- IEC Power connector. Most common and cost effective ebay and amazon. Link
- Solid State relay (25A). Yes 25A is over kill but these are the cheapest solid state relays. Also w
