Rule 2000 GPH Non-Automatic 12 Volt Bilge Pump, Model 10

The Rule Model 10 is a non-automatic 2000 GPH bilge pump built to move a high volume of water quickly and quietly from the bilge compartment of a boat. Running on a 12 volt DC electrical system, this submersible pump delivers a maximum flow rate of 2000 gallons per hour (33.33 gallons per minute) and a maximum lifting height of 2 meters, making it well suited for boaters who need serious pumping capacity in a compact housing.

The pump is engineered for silent, vibration-free operation and includes anti-airlock protection so it clears water smoothly without stalling in the line. An ignition-protected, marine-grade motor resists rust and corrosion and will not burn out if it is accidentally run dry, a common failure point in lower-quality bilge pumps. Maintenance is simple thanks to a snap-lock strainer base that allows quick access to the strainer and impeller cavity for cleaning. The pump comes with 6 foot leads and a 1-1/8 inch discharge outlet for straightforward plumbing into an existing bilge hose run.

Because this is a non-automatic model, it turns on and off with a manual switch or panel switch rather than a built-in water sensor, so a separate float switch is required if automatic operation is desired. It is backed by a 3 year warranty.
