The PWC 500 GPH Automatic Pump is an essential addition to any marine or boating vessel, providing reliable and efficient bilge pumping to keep your boat dry and safe. Engineered with next-generation sensing technology, this pump ensures optimal performance while maintaining energy efficiency and durability in challenging marine environments.
Advanced Sensing Technology
The S-Series pump utilizes impeller resistance to detect water levels automatically. It activates every 2½ minutes for a brief moment to check for the presence of water. Upon detecting water, the pump responds immediately, continuing to operate until all water is expelled. This intelligent sensing mechanism maintains water levels between 1/8″ and 3/8″, preventing potential bilge flooding continuously.
Energy Efficient Performance
Designed for modern marine applications, the PWC 500 GPH pump operates at a low voltage of 12 volts, aligning with typical onboard electrical systems. This improvement from the previous 13.6 volts requirement enhances compatibility and energy efficiency, ensuring minimal power consumption without compromising performance.
Robust and Reliable Construction
Built to withstand the rigors of marine environments, the pump features a stainless-steel shaft for enhanced durability and corrosion resistance. The inclusion of a backflow preventer ensures that water does not return into the bilge, maintaining a dry and safe boat interior.
Preventing Airlocks
The pump’s innovative design includes check valves and a hidden air vent system. A small vent hole beneath each strainer tab effectively releases any trapped air within the pump housing, preventing airlocks and ensuring uninterrupted operation.
Safety Features
Equipped with true electromagnetic suppression (EMC) and a built-in thermal cell, the PWC 500 GPH pump safeguards both the pump and your vessel from overheating. These safety mechanisms provide peace of mind, protecting your boat’s electrical systems and preventing potential damage.
Compact and Lightweight
One of the smallest automatic pumps on the market, the PWC 500 GPH is designed to fit seamlessly into various boat configurations without taking up valuable space. Weighing only 1.1 lbs and measuring 4″H x 7″W x 7″L, it offers powerful performance in a compact package.
