This pump is part of Rule's trusted Cartridge Series, known for trouble-free operation and reliability in demanding marine environments. The removable motor cartridge is a valuable feature that allows you to carry a spare motor for added security and enables quick cleaning when debris accumulates. Replacement motors are sold separately for convenient field servicing.

Performance Note: Like all centrifugal bilge pumps, capacity is rated at open flow. Actual output decreases with lift height—approximately 87% of rated capacity at 3 feet of lift, 75% at 6 feet, and 62% at 9 feet. Output is also affected by discharge hose length, elbows, and hose type.
