Product Description:
The Whale Orca 500 12V Electric Bilge Pump is designed to provide high-performance bilge water removal while fitting into tight spaces. Its compact design allows easy installation in confined bilge areas, while the low 1.5A amp draw ensures minimal battery usage, maximizing battery life during extended boating trips.
The Orca 500 features an efficient design with a large filter base, maximizing surface area exposed to bilge water for optimal pumping performance. Multiple wire entry locations and extra-long wires make installation simple, while easy access to the motor cartridge and filter area ensures straightforward maintenance and longevity.
Built for reliability, the pump’s robust ABS, fuel-resistant housing protects internal components from harsh marine environments. It operates at a nominal 12V DC, delivering a flow rate of 500 GPH (32 L/min) with a maximum discharge head of 9.8 feet. Recommended with a 2-amp fuse, this pump balances efficiency, reliability, and compact design, making it an ideal solution for small to medium vessels needing dependable bilge water management.
