SEAFLO 12V 600GPH 03 Series Non-Automatic Bilge Pump Side Mount

12V 600 GPH side-mount-capable bilge pump

The SEAFLO SFBP1-G600-03 is a non-automatic submersible bilge pump with a removable cartridge motor and strainer base that supports conventional bottom mounting or vertical side mounting. It must be controlled through a manual panel switch or a separate float/electronic water-level switch.

Suitable boats and bilge arrangements

• 12V sailing boats, motorboats, RIBs, fishing boats and tenders where a 600 GPH compact pump is appropriate.
• Narrow or awkward bilges where vertical side mounting gives better access than a conventional base installation.
• Useful for routine nuisance-water removal or as an additional pump in a redundant system.
• Not selected by boat length alone; installed capacity depends on hose, head, ingress risk, alarm and power supply.
• Not for fuel, oil, sewage or continuous dry running.

Verified technical specification

Check before ordering and installing

• Confirm a 12V DC system, the mounting orientation and the 19 mm discharge-hose route.
• Keep hose length, lift and bends low; flow falls sharply as head increases.
• Fit a correctly rated fuse, marine cable and manual or automatic switch according to the pump instructions.
• Route discharge above the loaded waterline and add anti-siphon protection where required.
• Leave enough access to remove the cartridge and strainer for cleaning.
• Package: one SEAFLO 03 Series pump/strainer assembly. Hose, switch, fuse holder, alarm and through-hull are separate.

Frequently asked questions

Does it include an automatic float switch?

No. Pump and switch are separate; add a compatible float/electronic switch for automatic operation.

Can it be mounted on a vertical surface?

Yes. The 03 Series mounting design supports vertical side mounting as well as conventional bottom mounting.

Can it run on 24V?

No. This model is rated for 12V DC.

Will it always deliver 600 GPH?

No. 600 GPH is the nominal rating; installed flow decreases with lift, hose length and restrictions.
