Description
This is a quite large fan with blades rotating at high speed! Act responsible, wear safety equipment and don't give it to small children to play with! I have warned you!**
Motivation: I was not really content with the built-in fan of my Wiltec spay booth (HS-E420DC) so i designed this large radial fan as a replacement.
The spray booth is also available from other resellers and looks like this: https://www.wiltec.de/airbrush-komplett-set-absauganlage-fur-farbnebel-mit-aussenluft.html
The pipe diameter of the fan inlet and of the outlet adapter is 100mm
The fan is designed for high airflow at an acceptable sound level.
For a successful build you need
(added 2022/04/03: For easier download and assembly, a 3d model of the assembled fan is added. If you happen to need some of the old files, they are also packed in a separate zip file)
(added 2021/04/06: The 3 UPDATED_BOTTOM files are meant for an easier assembly for the 775 motor. These replace the original BOTTOM piece and all original 775 MOTOR parts. Use 775_motor_cover to cover the electrical inlets of the motor)
you may scale the fan down (i was able to successfully print it at 50%) but you need to use the motor mount as a template and create you own for your specific motor!
added 2018/10/26: INPUT MUFFLER-DEFLECTOR: Intended to be screwed in front of the air intake - directly behind the filter. Add some sound isolationg material into the recess to further quiescence the air intake
Just a hint: Using a motor controller enables you to adapt the speed of the fan. A device like this worked perfect for me: https://www.amazon.com/Motor-Speed-Control-Controller-10V-50V/dp/B01LZAXWCO/ref=sr_1_23?ie=UTF8&qid=1540932616&sr=8-23
Although this design was made with a specific purpose in mind, you are welcome to use the fan for an other high airflow application. In this case, the following parts are not mandatory (the fan will work without them):
