So, you’ve decided to go futuristic and get yourself a massive inflatable family tent, so what’s next? You’ll need to get your shelter up and running and to do that you’ll need a supercharged pump like this one from Zempire.
The Zempire Aero Pump is a high-volume air pump that works perfectly with the entire Zempire inflatable tent range. To use just plug it into your car, attach it to your tent and watch it do all the work for you while you kick back.
There are two settings to adjust the pressure output, and the Aero Pump has a deflate outlet to help you pack up your tent when it’s time to head back to the big smoke.

Hi is his pump suitable to inflate an inflatable 2 man dingy?
G'day William,
Thanks for getting in touch, we don't think the Aero Pump will suit to inflate your 2
Can you summarise the differences so I can decide if its worth buying the newer model? Does this pump also have a smaller fitting that can be used to pump up and inflatable mattress?
G'day Jeffrey,
The Zempire Aero Pump is designed to be used with Zempire inflatable tents, so if you're wanting to inflate a mattress then the Zempire Super 2 Way Pump will be the best option, these come with a range of nozzles for different size mattress valves.
Looking for unit to deflate D'arche All Terrain Mattress 1300, can you test at store and see if end fits over or is there any device you can suggest?
G'day Pedr.
Unfortunately, the valve on the Darche All Terrain Mattress is quite a large one and doesn't fit the hose of the Zempire Aero Pump. There aren't any other pumps we stock either with a nozzle big enough. When it comes to deflating that mattress, it might just be a point of having to roll it nice and tight.
Does the pump plug into the 12V supply in the car (the old cigarette lighter socket), or is it alligator clips straight onto the battery terminals?
G'day David,
I've just double checked this one for you and can confirm that the Zempire Aero Pump has a 12v plug that goes into your car cigarette lighter.
I am assuming this pump needs to be plugged into a 12 volt power supply. How long is the power cord? It is not always possible to park car next to awning. How long does it take to inflate compared to standard Zempire hand pump? Is it twice as fast similar or slower? I have a standard Aerobase takes me about 2 mins with handpump but its an energetic 2 mins.
G'day David,
The Zempire Aero Pump comes with a cord length of 5m.
It's hard to offer a comparison due to the variables, however, the Zempire Aero Pump can be adjusted to an output between 50-300L per min, you can adjust the pressure gauge between 0-12 PSI and what most people love about it is it takes out the 'physical' demands of the hand pump.
Is there an automatic cut-off so you don't over-inflate?
G'day Kerrie,
I've just had a look into your query, and according to Zempire's website - the Aero Pump uses high volume/low pressure then automatically switches to low volume/high pressure until the desired air pressure is reached, and then switches itself off so there shouldn't be an issue with over inflation.
I have found the hand pump a bit of a challenge.
G'day Kerrie,
Great question! I've done a bit of research and can't see why you couldn't use the Zempire Aero Pump. The Aria uses the same Boston Valve as the Zempire tents so getting the hose to fit should be no worries. Just ensure you double check the Aria Poles recommended air pressure and don't exceed that with the pump.
Just wondering if I can use this pump to inflate my Turbo Air tent?
G'day Giles,
How old is your Black Wolf Turbo Air Tent? If it's a recent purchase, they should come with Boston Valves (same as Zempire Tents). If so, the Zempire Aero Pump will do the trick!
Hi - I have both aerodrome II and aerobase shelter - how long would this pump take to inflate both of them? Is it much faster than manually pumping (mentions it has high volume low pressure pump before switching to high pressure for final top up) or is it more just for convenience? Many thanks
G'day Mike,
This really depends on how fast you hand pump I guess. If you're having trouble with the hand pump or have a bad back, the aero pump will definitely be faster but I'm not sure for exact timing sorry. We'd be more than happy to contact the supplier in NZ on Monday if you'd like more specific details, just let us know.
Hi guys! What is the power cord length? (The air hose seems to be only about 1m long...)
Howdy Rob,
The air hose on this unit is actually 1.5metres in length and includes 3 nozzles operating on 12V. It can blow between 50 to 300L/Min which will get that tent or gazebo shelter up in no time flat! Cheers!
