With the introduction of a manual LP900D and an automatic version LP900S, Xylem’s Rule brand LoPro Series Bilge Pump is versatile, powerful and designed to fit in small areas. The body of both the LP900D and LP900S versions rotates up to 180° for easy installation. Additionally, the pump features multiple ports and horizontal or vertical mounting options, ensuring flexibility to fit differentiated environments.

The LP900S model has two automated modes which will enable boat owners to customize the pump for their specific needs. The first operation mode engages a sensor when the pump water levels are too high or too low; the second mode checks the water level automatically by briefly turning on the pump every 2.5 minutes. If water is detected, the pump stays on until the water has been removed. Rule also offers the LP900D without the electronic sensor for manual operation.

“Boat owners and architects are creating more personalized water craft. The highly adaptable design of the Rule LoPro makes it appealing to the recreational marine industry because it enables them to tailor the bilge pump to their distinct needs,” said Steve Tilders, Global Director of Sales, Marine & RV, Xylem. “Our solutions improve water management for vessels of varying footprints, and this new bilge pump is optimal for a variety of craft. A dependable bilge pump is essential to protecting their investments.”
