hi all

i have a AS 186 can i fit a fan to assist cooling ??

thanks in advance
 
Here https://www.scalemodelshop.co.uk/airbrush-compressor-as-186s.html the compressor comes with a fan, whether you can buy them separately - I don't know. But I reckon you could probably make something with a computer fan, or similar, though have no idea about wiring it up. Could probable just give it, its own power supply. These little compressors do tend to over heat as the motors overwork struggling to keep up.
 
hi

thanks for the link already got two as 186 so will look in to adding fan if i need to
 
If you use a computer fan all yoy need is a 12v power supply. The amps or milliamp does not matter as long as its 12v. You then splice the black and red wire into the power adapter wires. If there is a white and yellow wire on the computer fan you can leave them disconnected for high or splice the yellow and white wire together for low/medium fan speed.

You can also get 110v or 220v fans the size of computer fans but usually they are more expensive and people usually have a computer fan and 12v adapter laying around doing nothing.
 
thanks got 12v and 220v so will look in to it when i get time
