Nasal aspirators do not need too much power.. The vacuum generated by human hand is more than enough. One type of nasal aspirator uses a syringe mechanism, very much like an injection syringe. You insert the nose, and draw the syringe out. This suction works to pull out the mucus from the nose. This suction can also be done with a bulb. A simple variety of aspirator is to use a syringe or the vacuum created a by a bulb. As the syringe is pulled or the bulb allowed to expand, the resulting vacuum sucks the mucus out.
Another type, though not very popular, uses human suction.The apparatus consists of a receptacle that has two sealed hoses.One pipe ends as a small nose, and this is inserted into the nose. You put the other hose into your mouth and suck on it.When you do this, the resultant vacuum in the receptacle sucks in the mucus. This type is not very popular, as it not very hygienic. You could end up getting some mucus into your mouth, or end up sending some infection into the patient's nose if you are not careful.
The third variety uses an externally powered pump Very similar to the human suction type, there is again a bottle with one hose going into the nose. The other hose is connected to a small pump that sucks the air from the bottle and creates an vacuum. As you slowly release a valve in the other hose, the vacuum in the bottle starts sucking out the mucus.
In most high quality in such externally powered aspirators, the hose that is inserted into the nose is disposable.
Such instruments come with a vacuum gauge, and a regulator. The gauge allows you to form vacuum to the required extent in the receptacle or bottle. Once the vacuum pressure, you use the regulator to open the hose that goes into the nose to vacuum. The mucus is immediately sucked out.
Aspirators with external power use small pump such as a 1/8th horse power. The pumps in the aspirators are powered by batteries.

You can also use human suction through the mouth.The apparatus consists of a receptacle that has two sealed hoses.One hose is inserted into the patient's nose, and you suck on the other hose.When you do this, the resultant vacuum in the receptacle sucks in the mucus.

Good quality externally powered aspirators come with disposable hoses, filters, regulator, and gauge for the vacuum pump.
Such instruments come with a vacuum gauge, and a regulator. The gauge allows you to form vacuum to the required extent in the receptacle or bottle. Once the vacuum pressure, you use the regulator to open the hose that goes into the nose to vacuum. The regulator controls how much of the vacuum is exposed to the nose for the mucus to be sucked.
Such externally powered aspirators use very small pumps - mostly of the 1/8th horsepower variety. For powering the pump, it is mostly a battery with a 12 volts DC current.
