Fan on the type 4 engine

[Blitzkrieg]

From what model Deutz is that? Plastic?The more common f6l912 series has an aluminium housing,the impeller behind it is also aluminium.
They allso made versions with less cylinders , the fan looks similar but the output is less,think the vanes are shaped differently for less output.
Think a lot of effort and time is needed by a capable guy to develop the right shroud,with the neccessary testing instruments.

I was told that it was plastic...I have not yet seen the shroud in person
*scratches head in confusion*

The only reason that I was interested in it was because I could get it for free. When I go and pick it up, I will take some pictures...

Here's a pic for those interested - It's the fan on a 4 cyl diesel where I work. This is the one I got the price on. Man! The temptation to make it disappear !!! (No I won't - don't bite the hand that feeds you.)





Impi - I do believe that shroud is an excellent solution. I also have the problem that the type 4 motor that I bought is closed-off where the generator stand should go. This is the main reason I'm running down all these dead-end streets looking for a cooling solution. Any suggestions, or would I have to buy yet another casing?

Friend of mine made his own stand and still used one of my shrouds so it can be done it will not be that difficult either

Hey mr IMPI, when can we start placing orders for upright T4 cooling kits?

Impi, how much does your setup cost and how easy is the conversion. Craig

And that is why I developed the impi setup as the others are just to expensive
Centrifugal fans work by using centrfugal force to sling the air outwards and you get forward and rearward facing vanes as Jim said some types just collect muck easier as well as stalling the air when running outside design parameters Wikipedia has a nice article with pictures.
