| This tutorial is to create a source for air flow for pneumatic circuits. Using the battery box and the power functions M Motor, electric current is turned into rotational force which translates into reciprocating force to power the pump. This pump compresses the air so that when the switch is facing the left side, the will be a constant air flow into the tank and when the switch is flipped, the pressure from the pump is relived into the atmosphere. | This tutorial is to create a source for air flow for pneumatic circuits.

| For small circuit with few pistons, manually pumping the pneumatic pump provides adequate pressure, but it is not automatic. This motorized compressor provides adequate air flow for medium sized pneumatic circuits. In future designs, if you find this compressor is not meeting the circuits needs, more components can be added such as a more powerful or second motor, a second air tank, or more pumps. | For small circuit with few pistons, manually pumping the pneumatic pump provides adequate pressure, but it is not automatic.
