    If you are determined to go 12v then an air suspension compressor might work, you can probably get one from a car breakers yard. I don't know if they are suitable for continuous operation though or what current they take.

    What intrigues me is where you are getting the 12v from.

    It doesn't need to be 12V, I can run it from the 24V PSU just the same. Is that uncommon or something as you seem surprised.

    These 12v air pumps can draw a lot of current and can be very noisy electrically (brushed motor !). I would be careful you don't burn out your PSU
