Rule Industries 42 Deluxe 3-Way Lighted Bilge Pump Panel Switch 24V/32V

The Rule Industries Model 42 Deluxe Three-Way Lighted Panel Switch puts complete control of your bilge pump in a convenient, easy-to-access location. Designed for 24V and 32V DC marine electrical systems, this toggle-style panel switch is compatible with any bilge pump equipped with an automatic float switch or pump microprocessor.

The switch features three positions — Automatic, Off, and Manual — giving boaters full flexibility to manage bilge water removal. In the Auto position, the connected float switch or pump's built-in sensor controls operation independently. The Manual position allows the operator to override the automatic system for immediate, hands-on pump activation. A fail-safe spring return automatically returns the switch to the Off position from Manual, preventing the pump from running continuously by accident.

Key Features:

• Three-position toggle: Automatic / Off / Manual
• Spring return to Off from Manual position — fail-safe design prevents accidental continuous pump operation
• Compatible with 24V DC (10A max) and 32V DC (6.5A max) systems
• Red indicator light confirms power is being delivered to the pump
• Panel-mounted fuse holder for quick fuse replacement or system disable during service
• Stainless steel panel construction
• Panel dimensions: 3-1/4" (L) x 2" (W)

The Rule 42 is the 24V/32V counterpart to the Model 41 (12V). It is ideal for larger twin-engine vessels and commercial marine applications running higher-voltage DC systems. The pre-wired fuse holder and indicator light make installation straightforward and system monitoring at a glance effortless.
