Rule-Mate Intelligence

Rule-Mate bilge pumps have built-in programming that can sense when the pump is

running but not pumping water to protect the pump,vessel, and the vessel’s batteries.

If debris fouls the sensor or the pump becomes air-bound, the pump will stop running

and begin to “check” for water every 2.5 minutes. Once the debris is removed,the

pump will revert to its normal operation,turning on when the water reaches approxi-

mately 2.5” (63.5 mm) and shutting off at 5/8” (16 mm).

Our Rule-Mate bilge pumps contain a fail-safe back-up program that measures the

amount of work the motor is performing and the length of time the motor is running.

If debris, such as a wet paper towel or leaves,became lodged against the pump, it

could “trick” the pump into thinking water remained in the bilge which could deplete

the vessel’s battery.

If the circuit board senses the motor is running but doing little work (not pumping

water) for longer than ﬁfteen seconds,the pump will enter into a cycling mode in

the same fashion as the computerized pumps.The pump will sense water every

2.5 minutes and if it senses water, it will continue to run until the water has been

removed from the bilge.

After the debris is removed,the pump will automatically revert to the level sensing

mode.

CAUTION: Disconnect power from the system before working on the

unit to avoid personal injury, damage to the surrounding environment

and/or damage to the unit.

CAUTION: Keep all wire connections above the highest water level.

Wires must be joined with butt connectors and a marine grade sealant to

prevent wire corrosion.

CAUTION: Always install proper fuse size to prevent damage to product

should a short occur.Failure to install proper fuse could increase risk of pump

malfunction, potentially resulting in personal injury and/or ﬁre hazard.

Plumbing

This bilge pump has been designed to be used with ﬂexible hose.Rigid piping or

tubing may damage the pump or the pump’s discharge.

Factors that reduce the ﬂow of a bilge pump may include but are not limited to the

following:

• The length of discharge piping (longer runs reduce ﬂow)

• The number or radius of bends

• The roughness of the interior surfaces of piping and ﬁttings (smooth bore hose

is best)

• The reduction (hose restriction) in cross-sectional area of discharge system

components such as check valves and thru-hulls

Attach the discharge hose to the hose barb using stainless steel hose clamps.

The thru-hull discharge ﬁtting should be mounted at least 8” (20.3 cm) above the

heeled water line to prevent water siphoning in from outside the vessel or the

discharge may be located below the maximum heeled waterline if the discharge line

is provided with both of the following:

• A seacock installed in accordance with the requirements of ABYC H-27, Seacocks,

Thru-Hull Connections,and Drain Plugs, and

• A vented loop or other means to prevent siphoning into the boat.A check valve

shall not be used for this purpose

If the discharges of several pumps are manifolded to discharge through a single

thru-hull ﬁtting,the system shall be designed so that the operation of one pump will

not back feed another pump,and the simultaneous operation of each pump will not

diminish the pumping capacity of the system. Acheck valve shall not be used in the

discharge manifold system.

A check valve may be used only when necessary to prevent an automatic bilge pump

from cycling on and off due to back ﬂow from the discharge line.

Hose connections shall be secured with a non-corrosive type of clamp, or be

mechanically fastened with permanently-attached end ﬁttings,such as swaged sleeve.

Threaded inserts shall be attached with corrosion resistant metallic clamps.

Best practice: Use two

stainless steel hose

clamps to attach hose to

hose barb.

During the winterization of a vessel, it’s recommended that you remove the check

valve (if equipped) and drain any residual water from the plumbing.

Periodically remove, clean and inspect bilge pump,check valve and its surroundings

for damage or debris that may reduce the performance of the pump.

Installation

Push tabs on either side of the pump to remove pump from the base.

We recommend using #8 stainless steel ﬂathead screws of an adequate length as

to secure the pump but not penetrate the entire thickness of the hull. Use a ﬂexible

sealant in the screw holes to prevent water from penetrating the screw holes.

Insert the pump into the base and push down until an audible “click” is heard.
