Product Description

Mini Air Pump for Arduino and DIY Projects

Compact DC Air Pressure and Vacuum Pump

This is a miniature air pump designed to provide steady airflow for aeration, pressurization, and vacuum applications in DIY projects, aquariums, and small appliances [citation:5].

Dual Functionality - Can be used to generate positive air pressure or a vacuum [citation:3].
Low Power Consumption Designed for portable devices and batterypowered projects [citation:5].
Voltage range: 3V to 12V DC depending on model.
Maximum airflow: From 0.4 L/min to 3 L/min [citation:1][citation:4].
Maximum pressure: Up to 80 kPa (approx. 600 mmHg) [citation:4][citation:7].
Common in blood pressure monitors, aquarium oxygen pumps, and small pneumatic systems [citation:1][citation:2][citation:5].
