Setup, Compatibility & Care
Ensure the installation area is protected from direct water spray, though the unit is designed for the harsh conditions of marine engine compartments.
- Connections: The pump features 8mm pivoted connectors; ensure your fuel lines are compatible with these dimensions and secured with appropriate hose clamps.
- Electrical: Connect to a stable 24V power source. Use a fused circuit to protect the pump from electrical surges.
- Mounting: While versatile, vertical mounting near the fuel tank is generally recommended to assist the self-priming process.
- Maintenance: Because the unit is maintenance-free, periodic inspection should focus solely on the exterior, checking for tight hose connections and ensuring the wiring remains free from corrosion.
