The 6V–12V Mini Transparent Air Pump is a compact DC-powered diaphragm air pump designed for DIY electronics, embedded systems, robotics, and laboratory demonstration projects. The pump operates within a wide DC voltage range of 6V to 12V, allowing flexible integration with battery packs, DC adapters, and regulated power supplies.
This pump features a transparent plastic housing, enabling visual inspection of the internal diaphragm and motor operation. This makes it especially suitable for educational, experimental, and prototype development environments where functional visibility is required.
The internal DC motor drives a diaphragm mechanism to generate consistent airflow. Due to its compact size and low power consumption, the pump is suitable for portable and space-constrained systems. It can be controlled using a relay module, MOSFET, transistor switch, or motor driver when interfaced with microcontrollers such as Arduino, ESP32, Raspberry Pi, or STM32.
