Motivation and Audience
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.
