Water Pressure Systems

Product catalog summary
Introduction
Pressure controlled diaphragm pumps are designed to simulate domestic water systems on boats. They activate with a pressure drop when a faucet is opened and shut off at a pre-set pressure. These pumps are versatile, self-priming, quiet, and can run dry for long periods. It is advised to turn off the pump and depressurize the system when not in use to extend its lifespan.
Accumulator Tanks
Accumulator tanks store air and water downstream from the pump, smoothing water flow and reducing noise. They help the pump reach shut-off pressure smoothly, reducing cycling and improving hot water delivery. These tanks can dispense water even when the pump is off, providing convenience without noise.
Water Pressure Regulators and Strainers
Inlet water regulators protect boat plumbing from high municipal water pressure, with models for both portable and permanent installations. Inlet strainers, such as Pumpgard™, protect pump valves from debris and are easy to install and maintain.
Washdown Pumps
Washdown pumps are an extension of water pressure system pumps, featuring higher shut-off pressure switches and saltwater-compatible nozzles for effective cleaning.
PAR-Max Series Pumps
  • PAR-Max 1: Suitable for small systems, offering 1 GPM flow and 35 psi shut-off pressure. It is self-priming, quiet, and can run dry.
  • PAR-Max 1.9: Designed for vessels with showers and multiple faucets, offering 1.9 GPM flow and 25 psi shut-off pressure. It features a pulsation dampening bypass and is corrosion-resistant.
  • PAR-Max 2.9: Offers 2.9 GPM flow with a shut-off pressure of 25-50 psi. It is self-priming, quiet, and can eliminate the need for an accumulator tank.
  • PAR-Max 3.5: Provides 3.5 GPM flow with a shut-off pressure of 25-40 psi, featuring a heavy-duty motor for higher flows.
  • PAR-Max 4.0: Serves multiple outlets with 4.3 GPM flow and features thermal overload protection.
PAR-Max Plus Series
This series offers high pressure capability with models ranging from 4.0 to 6.0 GPM, providing consistent water pressure for multiple outlets. They feature sealed switches, co-molded diaphragms, and improved noise dampening.
V-FLO 5.0 Water Pressure Pump
Featuring DiMOND technology, this pump offers variable flow and constant pressure, reducing power consumption by up to 50%. It learns the boat's water system to enhance performance.
Single and Double Stack Water Systems
These systems simplify installation with pre-assembled components, including pumps, strainers, and accumulator tanks. They offer smooth flow, run-dry capability, and thermal overload protection, suitable for both pleasure and commercial boats.
Specifications
Key specifications include 1/2" outlets, self-priming capability up to 10', vertical or horizontal mounting, quadruple diaphragm design, thermal overload protection, and a pressure switch with cut-in at 20 psi and cut-out at 40 psi. The system is compliant with USCG 183.410 and ISO 8846 MARINE standards and comes with a three-year warranty.
Model Descriptions
Various models are available with different pressure settings, voltage requirements, and fuse ratings, catering to both high and low pressure needs. Some models are not available in certain regions.
Accessories
Accessories include inlet strainers for particle protection, Aqua Filta™ for water purification, water pressure regulators for maintaining safe pressure levels, and pressurized accumulator tanks for improved water system performance.

Water Pressure Systems-1

Pressure Controlled Diaphragm Pumps stems DUCTION Accumulator Tanks Pressure controlled diaphragm pumps provide boat owners with a fresh water system that is as easy to use as their domestic water supply - with the versatility to offer full flow or a trickle. The pump is controlled by a switch which senses the pressure drop when a faucet is opened and activates the pump; it turns off when the system pressure builds to a pre-set limit as the faucet is closed. This system allows any type of faucet or shower valve to be fitted, from 3/8" (10mm) bore for minimum water use to 1/2" (13mm) bore for maximum flow. Choosing the pump for your needs is simple - just check your system size and the number of outlets you need to operate simultaneously and select the appropriate pump. Diaphragm pumps are self-priming, quiet in operation and can run dry for extended periods. It is always best to turn the pump off and then open a tap to de-pressurize the system when you are not using the boat, as this will prolong pump life. Accumulator tanks hold a reservoir of air and water downstream from the pump. The air acts as a cushion, absorbing pump and pressure fluctuations, smoothing the flow and making the system quieter. Accumulators allow the pump to reach shut-off pressure more smoothly which reduces the on/off cycle and gives better control of hot water delivery. Our accumulator tanks all have a bladder that separates water from air. The bladder is pre-pressurized, but may need fine tuning when installed to give the most efficient performance. One of the advantages of an accumulator tank is that they can dispense up to half of their capacity of water even when the pump is switched off. So the bigger the reservoir, the more water you have available without having to switch the pump on, helping you wash your hands or clean your teeth without noise.

Water Pressure Regulators Washdown pumps are a development of our Water Pressure System Pumps. Higher shut-off pressure switches prevent on/off cycling while salt water compatible trigger nozzles let you blast off mud and dirt and then rinse down. Inlet water regulators are designed to protect your boat water system plumbing and fixtures from the possible high pressure of municipal water systems. Regulation is controlled at all flow rates by a pre-set spring, and a removable strainer traps debris. Both in-line portable and permanent flush mount models are available in our line of diaphragm sealed...
