<p>I have mounted two radial fan on my printer as a part cooling solution.</p>

<p><a href="https://i.stack.imgur.com/MTeZ5.png" rel="nofollow noreferrer"><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/MTeZ5.png" alt="radial blower fan"></a></p>

<p>As you can see, the fan has input on the left side and blows air down. Does a mirror construction exists? With outlet on the right.</p>

<p>I can even print my own casing, but I'm not sure if the fan will work, if I change the rotation direction.</p>

<p>I'm using this print cooling fan duct: <a href="https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1850163" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1850163</a></p>

<p>The fan on the right side has the opening facing the hotend, and there is not much space, so the impeller can catch on wiring etc. If the right fan had opening to the right, there would be no such problem.</p>

There is enough free space to suck in air and if you are afraid that the wires are caught by the impeller, you need to properly fasten the wires, ty wraps work wonderfully in securing cables. If I\'m not mistaken, you could even use the holes in the fans to secure the cables or otherwise design and print a small bracket for attaching the ty wraps.</p>\n'}, {'answer_id': 15165, 'author': 'Tomblarom', 'author_id': 9423, 'author_profile': 'https://3dprinting.stackexchange.com/users/9423', 'pm_score': 1, 'selected': False, 'text': '<p>I did also some research on this and decided to go with this solution.
