Move fluid safely from here to there with this very nice little pump. Unlike most liquid pumps, this is a peristaltic type - the pump squishes the silicone tubing that contains the liquid instead of impelling it directly.
One of the two DC pump motor supply leads. The Adafruit product page identifies this as a 12V DC peristaltic liquid pump and states it can be driven by a power transistor or motor driver; reversing polarity moves fluid the other direction.
The second DC pump motor supply lead. Use with the other lead as the two-wire motor drive connection; polarity determines pump direction according to the Adafruit product page.
Silicone tubing fluid path supplied with the peristaltic pump. The product page notes the installed silicone tubing and two attached 1/2 metre pieces; fluid direction depends on motor drive polarity.
