Here is the printable 2020 extrusion mount: thingiverse.com/thing:5571531
If you design a new mount please share it by email or tag us on social and we can add it to our HotBox support page: whambamsystems.com/hotbox-support
the Cloud comes with a hook patch on the rear side and a matching separate loop patch with a strong 3M backing. You can mount this loop patch to a wall, your printer, or to a 3D printed bracket to mount to your printer in an optimal position. Plus our most recent HotBox and HotBox Mega have a loop patch already sewn into the inner top panel to give a convenient mounting point!
the Cloud will only activate with direct contact with a flame for at least 3 seconds and will not trigger due to ambient temperature or smoke. Once activated it makes a brief explosion launching a cloud of ABC extinguishing powder into the air around the device. The powder quickly extinguishes almost any fire within its perimeter. Rated as a Class A, B, C, E, and F fire extinguisher.
SPECIFICATIONS:
-Size: Ø135 x 35mm
-Weight: 250g
-Area protected 800 x 800 x 800mm
-Life Span: 5 Years (no maintenance required)
-Main Extinguishing Agent: non-toxic powder
-Material Standards: conforms to international environmental protection standards 91/155EEC.
USE:
-Mount above the area to protect, directly above the fire risk zone.
-Will protect an area of approximately 80cm x 80cm x 80cm.
-Will activate with direct contact from the flame for more than 3 seconds and will not be activated by smoke or heat.
-Be careful during activation as there is a brief powerful explosion and powder dispersion. Wear eye protection and keep your distance when flames are present.
-After the fire is extinguished the powder is harmless, simply vacuum it to clean it.
WARNINGS:
-Wear eye protection and use caution when around a live flame as the explosion is powerful and can launch the powder and film with force.
-The ABC powder may damage PCBs so after an activation please clean out your printer electronics and test before use.
-This device is to be used only to extinguish a fire.
-Store at room temperature, in a dry, ventilated environment.
-Do not open the product, disassemble it, or tear off the protective wrap.
