Rule's compact submersible 500 GPH electric pump is designed for use as a bilge or bait pump on smaller crafts. This pump features a water cooled, ignition and TCO protected motor, stainless steel shaft and snap-on strainer base. It's extremely efficient, offering low current draw and high capacity output in a very compact housing to fit into the smallest available space. This pump requires a Rule float switch to operate automatically (sold separately - see related products). Using the included check valve will reduce the output flow of the pump.
