Product description
This miniature air pump generates compressed air from 12 V or 24 V power sources and is suitable for control and drive tasks in electronics projects. The choice of operating voltage determines the required power supply setup. The 12 V version can be operated with typical laboratory power supplies or batteries, while the 24 V version requires suitable power sources or voltage conversion from 12 V.
The pump operates according to the electromechanical displacement principle and is controlled directly via DC voltage. Flow rate and pressure buildup vary depending on the version, so the specific requirements should be clarified before selection to determine whether the available output is sufficient for the project. The compact design fits into confined installation spaces, and the hose configuration enables flexible routing.
Applications include pneumatic demonstrations for school projects, controlling miniature compressed-air cylinders in robotics setups, or serving as a pressure source for sensor tests with compressed air. The pump is also suitable for folding models or movable demonstrators that are to be triggered electronically, provided that the required pressure and pump capacity are sufficient for the load.
Operation requires a suitable DC power source: a 12 V or 24 V power supply, laboratory power supply, or battery pack, depending on the version. Hoses and accessories must be purchased separately. The pump is designed for prototypes and test setups, not for continuous operation under high load.
Safety note
When working on the power supply or connecting the pump, consult a qualified electrician if you have any questions about safe wiring. The device is intended exclusively for building prototypes and for testing and development purposes and is not suitable for electrical installation in household circuits. Compressed air is generated during operation; ensure adequate ventilation and secure hose attachment.
