Ender 3 v2 PSU cover silent mod (printable on Ender3v2) by Mickey_J

Last crawled date: 3 years, 4 months ago

Just sliced the original so it can be printed on an ender3v2 and added a little lip to make it easier to glue together and get a better bond.
Print it flat side down, with support.
Clean up the edge with a file before you glue it, and clear out the screwholes and the small lip in pt2 before putting it together.
Fits a Noctua A9-14 (4pin) 12v fan - 92x92x14mm
Original PSU fan had a 74dB peak noise level (as measured with my potato)
After the mod the psu peak noise is 51dB (measured with the same potato).
Support: YES. (there's a small piece in the corner of pt2 that needs support)
Clean-up and Assembly:
Clean-up:
Clean up the lip with a file before you glue it
Clear out the screwholes
Check if the noctua rubber mounting things fit easily, or file/drill the holes to open them up a tad.
Remove the support from the small pocket on pt2 with a knife before putting it together.
Assembly:
Tape the two parts together on the flat side, so you can stil bend it open when applying the glue.
I used 2 component epoxy "ZAP" brand, but any cyanoacrylate glue should do nicely also.
fold the two parts open and apply the epoxy to the lip.
leave it on a flat surface with something heavy on top of it to hold it down/together.
