This page describes the recommended installation way of the fire safety set on xTool M1. You can install it, however, based on your actual use.

Install the fire safety set

1. Determine how many sensors you need to use

You can determine how many sensors to be used based on the structure and processing space of your laser machine.

💡 Tips: Sensor 1 is designed to detect flames around a laser module, and sensor 2 is designed for detect flames in other areas.

The closed processing space of xTool M1 is about 0.05 m3. In addition to sensor 1 for detecting flames around the laser module, you can use four sensor 2, fitting them on the inside of the lid.

Use the 3M tape to stick the sensors on the inside of the lid.

1. Open the lid of xTool M1.

2. Use the 3M tape to stick a sensor on the inside of the lid.

⚠️ Note: Pay attention to the direction of the connection cable of the sensor when you attach the 3M tape on the sensor. For xTool M1, you need to make sure that all the connection cables of the sensors can be arranged toward the right side of xTool M1.

Fit the other three sensors in the same way.

💡 Tips: It is recommended that you stick four sensors following the suggestions. However, you can stick them based on the actual use.

(The distance between the sensors on the second row and the bottom of the lid must be>11cm. )

9. Connect the fire safety set to a power supply

⚠️ Note: DO NOT connect the power cable of the control box to the smart switch. The control box needs not only to control the smart switch to power off your machine when a flame is detected, but also to continue the alarm and even fire extinguishing after the smart switch is turned off.
