Smart BTT's Filament Detection Module is a universal filament sensor for FDM 3D printers. Unlike most other sensors on the market, this not only detects when the filament is finished, but also when the nozzle is clogged or the filament is tangled.
This sensor works with all motherboards and TFT displays that have an interface for filament exhaustion sensors, e.g., Bigtreetech SKR MINI E3, SKR 1.4, SKR Pro 1.2, SKR 3, Octopus, Octopus Pro, TFT70, TFT50, and many others.
Main features:
- Clogged nozzle detection
- Detection of interrupted filament
- Detection of filament exhaustion
- Works with Directdrive systems and Bowden
- Works with motherboards that have the filament detection interface
- Support screen 2004, 12864, TFT24 (12864 mode), tft35_v3.0 (12864 mode)
- Touch screen compatible TFT24, TFT35-V3.0
- Supports 1.75 mm diameter filaments

Notes
This module is to be powered from 3.3V to 5V, so higher voltages may damage the module.
Frequent and incorrect tightening of screws and pneumatic connectors can damage the case
Filament residue and dust can cause false alarms, so we recommend preventive cleaning maintenance
If using a touch mode on the display, the filament sensor must be connected to the display
Package contains: 1 x BIGTREETECH Smart Filament Sensor V1.0
