- How to make the smallest water pump at home - diy water pump using mini dc motor
In this video, I show how to make a very small but extremely powerful water pump using a mini Coreless DC motor.
In the test I did in the video, you can see that about 3 meters of water is thrown.
You can start this engine with a voltage of 1.5 to 3.7 and you can use a small lithium battery.
This small water pump motor can pump 1 liter of water in 1 minute.

Hii bro
Dude, you're good 👍🏻😊 subscribing!
How many hours it can operate without failure? Please share your experience.
i really like your design. I am wondering if it may improve efficiency if the fins were slightly cupped towards the direction of rotation. And had you considered making a tesla version of your water pump? I think I might like to trry making one of your pumps and then making a version in shape of a tesla version of a water pump. I would be interested to know if your pump could generate electricity. Could you make a video demponstrating it being used generating electricity?
@@vmened Pressure head would be nice too.
Amazing work. Just a tip: the base plate rotated 90 ° allows the use of fixing screws
Yes, this is possible.
Amazing reply. Just a tip: shut tf up and allow him grace for his skills. GTFOH
But uses more space
You could also just slide flat nuts under the plate how it is now and screw from the other side of the mounting surface
Hi
I love when the algorithm recommends unusual content like this. I have no practical use for something like this in my life, but I still watched the whole video and felt very satisfied seeing it in action.
Agreed 😁
Same here.. I like people and their videos. Especially when they have that ability to "think outside the box".
Practical use: a pump to ensure pets water is always moving so it doesn't get algae, and you can even combine it with a super simple filter to retain dirty stuff 👍
@@Pierstoval Well yeah. No doi. I don't have aquatic pets, so I don't need a pump.
@@mRibbons Would be for cats and dogs! A simple bowl with still water isn't enough for cats or dogs, because with these heats, still water gets dirty pretty rapidly, so having moving water is important for that :)
Cool idea. I am curious how long that motor lasts since you covered all the airflow holes with silicone.
Since it's a submersible pump, if its working fully submerged in room temperature water, I think it won't have any problems. Besides, its a very small power motor.
1,000 to 3,000 hours in ideal conditions. i use the same motors on micro drones and if they get worked too hard and heat up they don't last long at all. we used to change them out every month or so.
@@djSpinege yeah probably a good idea to undervolt this one for the sake of longevity.
Тупые американцы) он сгорит)
It will overheat if run at normal voltage. It needs fins on it, probably even one fin would be enough seeing as it is in water
I really enjoyed watching it. For the future when you'll be wondering why there is so much water inside the motor: when motor works it heats up and the air inside it heats up and expands as well, when the air expands it is pushed out of it through the rod seal into the water forming small air bubbles, then when the motor is switched off it cools down including the air inside it, the air shrinks and pulls the water inside the engine through the same seal.
Let's be real, it's amazing they managed to make it function at all.
Is there a solution to this problem? (I note that some small commercial water pumps use magnetic transfer to the shaft and the coils are completely sealed and separate from the 'water side'...)
Would just orienting unit so the motors propeller is at the bottom and then lengthening the shaft an inch or two to keep the motor separate from the water source inlet solve this? Then not sealing the motor up with silicone to allow airflow and cooling?
he could've done a seperate housing for the pump and leaks wouldn't matter.
You could just leave some space around the motor for the heated air to expand into and it would be fine.
Лучший вариант! Сам делал такой насос, работает!
У меня была задача откачивать воду ( побежала батарея и зимой не возможно её отремонтировать ) подставил под батарею емкость высотой 5 см , как напопитель капель с батареи, в ней такой насос, и на arduino автоматика откачки при наполнении емкости, в верхней точки насос водой заполнился, сработало включение 20 сек работает и литр воды перекачивает в канистру на 10 литров.... ) за день перекачивал 10 литров, так проработал 4 месяца )))) 1500 литров 👍🏼
👌 Всё, пошёл за Ардуинкой! А то у мене на работе крыша протекает! 👍😁🤪
Можно самому сделать, но в принципе в продаже есть и готовый вариант например насос для дворников автомобилей тоже достаточно малогабаритный, работает от 12 вольт
I'm officially impressed. I wonder how hot it gets, I can see this in short burst uses, but running continuously for long I imagine would soon release some smoke.
the silicone would help reduce some of that, find a way to submerge it, and the water and silicone would really help.
Reduce the voltage to get a lower speed, get it to maybe .5LPM instead of 1LPM.
Find a way to make this last long term, and it would be awesome for micro-tanks or even for small scale hydroponics.
@@dreamwolf7302 Honestly? I would imagine this wouldn't even heat up that much. In part because you'd have constant cooling from the water the pump is pumping, and in part because the motor is so tiny on so low voltage. Many industrial water pumps just use the water to cool the pump as it works, as it is right there and will be passing through the pump no matter what.
@@cherriberri8373 Backwards, small size (for the same power) makes it get much hotter, that's just simple heat transfer. Also that water is NOT circulating around the motor, only the impeller (which isn't hot to begin with), and he just insulated it with silicon which is a thermal insulator. Voltage also makes no difference in heat, only overall power for the heat generation (example, I have a device designed for even lower voltage, about 1.5v but its rated for over 600 amps continuous, so its still over 1 HP of output)
@@cherriberri8373 It's the same 3.7V that makes your huge phone hot.
How hot the motor becomes doesn't depends on amount of power it draws, how much of that power is losses, how small the motor volume to heat up and the amount of heat that can be radiated away.
Being small, means it has to work harder to deliver the same power, i.e. you have a higher power density.

Caramba eu fiquei impressionado com esta obra de arte!
Бля, я сам в шоке! Это же шедевр!!! Как так можно, из говна и палок- сделать годную вещь! Очень полезную и необходимую в хозяйстве!
I like the way you waterproofed between the pump and the motor.. So many videos out there that forget about that and the water will kill the motor without it.
If what your showing is accurate, that's good action from such a small pump. Something that may be useful as a battery operated outdoor water feature maybe.
Well done to you..
Except that motors need to be kept cool during operation or their life expectancy will shorten significantly.
What's to stop water from eventually finding its way around the water fin piece and then along the motor shaft through the white silicone protecting the motor though.... Since the shaft keeps spinning up against that silicone, there is bound to be a way for water to get in.
@@ChristmasEve777 Not only that, but as the motor heats up, air inside the motor expands and is pushed out which creates negative pressure inside the motor. When the motor cools down, water will be drawn inside the motor as the pressure wants to equalize
I saw this video out of curiosity, it was proposed to me by CZcams, but then I kept watching the others too. Congratulations on the dexterity and imagination in the projects. Very ingenious!
I watched this whole video and realized I need to find purpose and meaning to my life.
Sensacional. Parabéns!
Спасибо! С удовольствием посмотрел! Очень креативно и аккуратно!
Получился замечательный беспилотный летательный аппарат .Спасибо за ваш ролик.
Économique, efficace fonctionnel. Géniale
Una belleza, demasiado simple y genial. 🙌🏼✨
Thanks for the tutorial penguin, i have few of those motors laying around they are really powerful for their size, and i always wondered what i could make with them and now you just gave me a great idea, thanks. you just earned a new subscriber !
:D
Careful for flooding. Might wanna put more seals just in case, mainly ones that prevent things from being pushed in, rather than out or mutual. Or at least I'd assume maybe a extra layer or something to prevent water from going through to the motor and what not
Thanks for the tip, i will try to seal it better, i was also thinking of a heatsink and a fan maybe to cool it down because that kind of motor heats up quickly.
@@stevanv9650 That would be a very good idea because from what i heard its the heat that causes water to get pulled in because of heating and cooling of the air between on and off cycles
Should i put a heatsink on both sides ? Because if i put only one heatsink the other side would still be hot so better put two, right ?
Part 2
Can the tiny water pump fill a few baths or even a small pool without exploding?
a smart idea, thank you for opening my eyes
Super accuracy in performing the project. Excellent patience, craftmanship, thanks from Jawaharlal India
Because the motor is completely incased in silicon, is there any issue with overheating? Great little build!
it's practically water cooled when submerged, *if* enough heat can get thru the silicone
Fully agreed.
@@chrismofer That's a magnet core, copper coil wall design motor. As such, the walls do most of the cooling.
The water has to cool through the small part of the exposed drive shaft only which has to transmit through the bearings to the case. In other words it isn't going to do a good job.
@@chrismofer Typical silicone has a thermal conductivity of approximately 0.2 W/mk. That's a worse thermal conductivity than air (which we all know is a pretty good insulator). Even fairly good thermal conductivity silicone has a conductivity of 0.4W/mk, which is the same ballpark as styrofoam, also a good insulator.
Хорошая идея.
Although there are a lot of similar videos, the work was great, and there was something that attracted me to the video and to complete it for the last minute. 👍
great job! I will print the plastic pieces with the 3d printer and use the micro motors to water the plants on the balcony!
Now make a mini fountain using this
This will be perfect for my miniature “LEGO tower that is actually on fire that needs to be put out with actual water” idea. Now I just need to figure out how to build my “LEGO fire engine that actually needs gasoline to drive” idea
fr there isn't an actual reason a mini water pump would be practical thank you for pointing it out
@@daneal9443 Oh, you think I’m kidding??
There’s a lot of uses for a mini pump like this!! I’m already planning on making one for my aquarium to give it a little waterfall even
Don't watch videos on mini gasoline engines, mini gas powered RC's, and definitely don't discover the "maker" community
@@hempwick8203 why the hate for the maker community LMAO
more than wonderful. and loved that idea of making it's base!!!! classic!
Lots of work for something that you can buy for a few bucks. Pretty cool idea though, it's more powerful than I thought it would be.
Great for school projects 😊

For such a tiny diy pump it pushes hard! 1lpm is excellent. Well done!
Looks fun! What kind of glue did you use to glue the plastic parts to each other? I’ve never found a glue that works well for PE or PP.
Looked like superglue
@@ale6242, it does look like super glue but super glue doesn’t glue that kind of plastic very well at all.
This is an example of that glue.

Hii friend
Amazing!!
Really enjoyed this! it's a shame the lifespan of these motors is very short, at least when using them in tiny drones. a micro brushless version would last way longer and brushless motors are waterproof. only downside is you would need an ESC. Cheers.
Out of interest, how long do these motors typically last?
1,000 to 3,000 hours in ideal conditions. i use the same motors on micro drones and if they get worked too hard and heat up they don't last long at all. we used to change them out every month or so.
Brushless motors can handle much higher heats and will last way longer.
With an aluminium impeller it would even cool the motor from the pumped water
If the world ended tomorrow and i could only bring a few people with me to rebuild, I would want Penguin DIY 100% on my team. Love your creativity!
I'd choose Penguin DIY, DIY Perks, and Adam Savage for my apocalypse rebuilding team. The Holy Trinity of making things.

One thing that has always bothered me about other DIY channels is their lack of precision, but you seem to have it all figured out, nice work!
Trabalho simplesmente fantástico.

Very impressive apparent head-pressure for such a small motor. I expect you would lose a lot of flow when you add more resistance, but still many uses for something so small and cheap to do temporary work in a workshop or lab. I wonder if overheating may be an issue when running a long time though - because silicone has very low thermal conductivity. A decent potting compound would have 7-8 times better thermal transfer.
I think I would consider plastic-welding the connections instead of glue - because most syringes will be made of polypropylene (PP, code 5) and this material is one of the worst (common) plastics to get good adhesion on due to it's low surface energy. In layman's terms it is a "non-stick" plastic. Even with surface prep and a superglue designed for polyolefin-type plastics the bond will not be strong - and that is important in a pump where a sudden big leak could be a disaster. Especially with so much vibration...
Plastic welding something like this would not be hard though - and you just need a fine tip of a bog standard cheap old soldering iron (and some time to practice the skill). It is super useful to know how to do anyway - because the same basic method can be used on all thermoplastics, which are everywhere in modern life.
It would be nice to know a proper measurement of the head pressure (easy - just add a bit of vertical hose and measure the distance), and what total wattage it ran at in the demo. Just the voltage alone tells you very little when the internal resistance could be high or low.
Nice speech.
That's right, heat can get a problem. I would suggest to run it with undervoltage, to reduce the heat production, or if a cool liquid ist pumped, just coil the tube some times around the syringe to help cooling it. Anyway, very impressive work and Idea. Subscribed!
Nice face. :)

Все это замечательно, но есть помпы омывателей стекол - изделия стандартные массовые, а потому дешёвые.
Этот самодельный насосик одноразовый, ибо не ремонтопригодный из за того что залит полностью герметиком и проработает он до первой и последней поломки (он просто быстро сгорит) очень недолго, ибо опять же из за того что залит он полностью герметиком, т.е. не будет отведения тепла от моторчика.
😂
@@user-ln8tx3oc1t что мешает добавить термистор и дешманский регулятор мощности?
@@EvpCreator что мешало автору видео сразу делать по нормальному...?
Да, насосы стеклоомавайки очень дешевые, имхо лучше их купить, проработают намного дольше и более надежные. Правда работают от 12 вольт. Самодельный работает от 3 воль, по сути от одной батарейки
The never ending love of Penguin DIY and silicone.😁 Love your videos and keep up the great work.
awesome work! you could perhaps pack in more performance with micro inrunner brushless motors like a BLH6003
This is absolutely superb, great job 👍

Hii bro
Насколько сильно греется моторчик в такой силиконовой «шубе» при нагрузках?
Регулятор амперов нонче доступны. )
Здесь показана реализация, мастерство, и пример работы помпы.. Повезет если сутки проработает без выключения с учетом охлаждения. Там щеточный мотор, он только для кратковременной работы.
Ещё и вентиляционные отверстия на моторе заклеил.
Very clever! What glue did you use? I have found it very difficult to glue polyethylene-- maybe you could friction weld with plastic rod in a Dremel tool?
what an amazing work i liked you're channel from the first video i cant express you're work and accuracy by words keep on i hope for you the 1 mill 🌹🌹🌹
thanks
Agreed
Just a suggestion to swap out the microUSB to Type C of your previous builds.
Or just buy a even smaller pump from ebay for a few bucks.. The pumps in cars windshield washers aren't much bigger than this thing and put out way more volume
Why did I click 🥲
Cz it‘s cool 😟
That Was Super Cool, Keep It Up 👌
Perfect! The case when DIY is something that really works👍
Hey sorry if this was more or less explained here but i was curious, does this function essentially the same way when only air is fed through the device? Or is it not enough force or RPMs of the propeller to have this effect? I do (VERY amateur) fluid art acrylic paintings and one way to create many effects is to use a blow-dryer, a straw, or just blow with your mouth directly on the mound of paint/medium..
What I'm essentially thinking is something like a handheld leaf blower, but with detachable nozzles to dissipate airflow in different patterns..
Not asking you to build this, it's just something I've been hoping to tackle as a project but my lack of 3d printer and engineering skills prove an unfortunate disadvantage over all.
Thanks for any help/guidance, this isn't just asking OP, I'm open to whatever as long as you're not suggesting I divert my focus to NFTs.
Thx again.
Ash.
Нет, помпа не перекачивает воздух. Для этого есть вентилятор.
melting rubber using friction, genius idea. By the way I'm sometimes thinking how to recycle your projects if it would broke or something just to separate all parts
Hello bro
So rather than spending $3 on a pump, you can spend $30 in parts and materials, and spend a few hours making a mess. And your end result will be a pump that can run for several minutes, until the shaft leaks or the motor burns out. Seriously, you can't block the vent holes on an electric motor. The holes they put in them are usually the bare minimum anyways. You took that away from it.
But look 4 000 000 view's this is money.
This is the coolest DIY project ever
0:20 I can't get over how the syringe pressy thing comes out on beat here and makes exactly the kind of noise you'd expect to hear in a track like this. It's slightly off beat, but super close. That's a great sound honestly, I'm gonna have to get a syringe now damn it lol
Привет, данной конструкцией мы вырвем глаза Зеленскому)))
Love this design as I like to fettle myself, only thing I would maybe say is if you want to use it in a setting where theres aquatic life present you want to use Silicone without any additives in which case it will state it's Fish or Aquarium safe, alright the big tubes are a bit pricey online but you can find dirt cheap stuff listed as Silicone RTV sealant in an auto parts store that is the same stuff and often even advertises itself for aquarium use.
Pretty clean. Well done👍
