Short Description

The Sun Pump is a battery operated, solar charged rainwater bilge pump for open boats. It automatically pumps rainwater out of your aluminum, skiff, Jon boats and recharges once the sun reappears.

Description

Molded, assembled and packaged in Dwight, Ontario, this self contained unit is shipped completely assembled and ready to install in your boat. The internal float switch activates the bilge pump once it detects 2" of water and it will cycle on and off as long as the rainwater continues to accumulate. The 3' drain hose is included and is secured to the exterior rear handhold with a reusable nylon zip tie. A manual pushbutton switch evacuates most of the remaining water once the rain has stopped. The solar panel recharges the Sun Pump's internal 12V battery and a 12V power socket can be used for emergency charging of 12V accessories. Compact and weighing only 11 lbs, it can conveniently placed next to the transom at the rear of the boat.

Day or night, the Sun Pump automatically activates in 2 1/2" of water and will cycle on and off, during a rain event, pumping rainwater out of your boat, down to a depth of 1 1/4".

The remaining rainwater can be removed, once you arrive at your boat, by simply either gently tilting your boat to pool the rainwater around the Sun Pump or it can be manually activated with the manual push button or toggle switch to discharge the remaining water down to 1/4". When the sun resumes shining, the 2.5W solar panel recharges the 7.2 Ahr sealed battery.

The inflow design of the pump case strains rainwater debris to maintain a consistent pumping rate of 500 GPH. Measuring 13" long x 8" wide x 6" tall and weighing just 11 lbs, it can be transported easily with one hand and can secured to your transom via the motor cable or chain through the injection molded pump case handle. It ships complete and fully charged with a 3' bilge hose and a releasable, durable, zip tie strap
