About the Ultima Bilge Pump
The Ultima Bilge pump is a state of the
art automatic bilge pump that uses ad-
vanced electronic sensing technology to
detect the presence of water in the bilge
area of a boat and consequently dis-
charge of that water. It is built upon the
proven UltimaSwitch technology which
uses micro electrical fields to detect the
presence of water. The Ultima Bilge
pump is a sealed, submersible pump and
electronic float switch that allows for a
simple installation for the end user.
Warnings:
To eliminate personal injury or damage
to property during installation, servicing
and maintenance, make sure to discon-
nect electrical power.This pump was
designed to remove standing bilge water
only and should not be used to pump pe-
troleum products such as gasoline, oil, or
flammable liquids.
Make sure to use the appropriate fuse
size recommended by your pump model.
Using the wrong fuse can lead to per-
sonal injury, property damage and fire
hazard.

Pump, make sure that pump is clear of all
obstacles, especially near the detector area.
If detectors are blocked, the pump will re-
main continuously on!
1) Place a 3/4" thick block of marine
plywood as a mounting block for your
pump base. Mounting block should
be large enough to cover the strainer
area. Use a waterproof adhesive to
attach mounting block to the hull of
the vessel. Make sure that mount-
ing block is as flat as possible. Place
pump in the lowest area of the bilge.
Also, make sure discharge nozzle is
level.
) Remove the pump from the strainer
by depressing the two side tabs and
pulling the strainer from pump body.
Use the strainer to mark three mount-
ing holes. In order to avoid drilling
through the hull of the vessel, set
your drill to the appropriate depth for
the pilot holes. Drill your pilot hole.
3) Drive three #8 x 5/8" (not supplied)
Stainless screws into the strainer
holes to mount the strainer. Do not
over tighten.
4) After the strainer is mounted down,
place pump body onto strainer mak-
ing sure that the side tabs lock onto
pump body.
For ¾" discharge models attach your
hose over the Duraport. Use Stainless
steel hose clamps to secure the hose.
If installing the optional check valve,
make sure to install the check valve
into the Duraport before installing the
hose. For 1 1/8" models attach your
hose over threaded port [1 1/8" or 1¼"].
