Correct!

Any 12V pump that is designed for continuous operation.

If it were me I would probably add a vacuum reservoir as well. If you do that, then the pump can be sized smaller since recovery time will not matter as much.

Ok I see !

I will probably do the job the most simple way
I see I have two option
1) the most simple : buy a kit all included , but it s not cheap: about 200€

2) take a random stock pump from a car ,remove the connector
And wire it the following way : first to the inline fuse, then to a relay , and then
The relay should be wired to a pressostat so it can stop working when the vacuum reservoir of the pump is full. It will cost me way cheaper, but also requires a lot more work to prepare the electrics.

That looks like a beast of a pump! You probably won't need a reservoir with that but might be best to have one just in the case of emergency. Let us know how the installation goes.

Yes, that is a nice looking kit! It should do the job for sure and looks like it is complete with all wiring parts, etc to make the install easy.

If I am seeing it correctly it may even have a vacuum switch to control the pump so that it only is commanded to operate when vacuum is needed. That is nice since it will mean the pump will not run constantly and unnecessarily during situations when you go long distances without touching the brakes, such as highway cruising.

We will look forward to hearing how you get on with this, looks like a good solution.
