About this model
The blue fischertechnik compressor (121470) is a useful component for pneumatic models but its capacity is rather limited. It delivers a pressure of 0,7 bar and a flow against zero backpressure of 4.5 l/min as determined by a simple flow experiment. What to do if one needs more pump capacity? On-line there are commercial low pressure 12V compressor under the TICFOX brand that deliver 9.0 l/min at 9V and 12 l/min at 12V. It has therefore a 2-3 times higher capacity. They are quite a bit larger than the fischertechnik version with dimensions of 11,1 x 5,8 cm. I have ordered mine on Amazon. The pump has an exit at the top, but also an inlet at the bottom, hence the pump can be used either as a ‘vacuum’ pump or a positive pressure pump. To stay a little bit in style a housing was designed in O…
