SEAFLO compact submersible bilge pump – 12V, 600GPH
A compact non-automatic drainage pump for small craft and restricted bilge spaces. The removable strainer base, corrosion-resistant thermoplastic body and stainless-steel shaft support routine freshwater or saltwater bilge service.
Suitable applications: RIBs, inflatables, fishing boats, tenders, small speedboats and auxiliary compartments with 12V power and a 19mm discharge hose.

Boat compatibility and system design
- For 12V DC small-craft bilge systems using a 19mm smooth-bore hose.
- Requires a manual switch, float switch or electronic controller; this model has no integral automatic sensor.
- Installed capacity must be checked against boat size, compartment volume, lift and required emergency pumping capacity.
- May be used as a secondary or compartment pump but should not replace a correctly sized primary/emergency bilge system.
- Not for fuel, oil, sewage, potable water or abrasive liquids.
Important: nominal flow is measured under low-restriction test conditions. Installed output reduces with vertical lift, hose length, small-bore pipe, bends and fittings.
Installation, checks and package contents
- Mount upright at the lowest accessible collection point and keep the snap-off strainer serviceable.
- Route the discharge above the waterline and use anti-siphon protection where required.
- Use a 4A fuse, marine tinned cable and sealed connections positioned above normal bilge-water level.
- Test the pump, switch and high-water strategy regularly and clear hair, leaves and debris from the strainer.
- Related SEAFLO family references SFBP1-G600-01 / SFBP1-G600-03 must be checked against the supplied outlet and electrical specification.
Package contents: one new SEAFLO 600GPH pump with removable strainer base; switch, hose, fuse, cable extension and through-hull are not included.
Frequently asked questions
Does the pump start automatically?
No. Add a compatible float switch or controller if automatic operation is required.
What hose size is needed?
Use 19mm / 3/4in internal-diameter hose suitable for below-deck marine drainage.
Is 600GPH the real installed output?
It is the nominal open-flow rating; lift and hose resistance reduce flow on the boat.
Can it be used as the only bilge pump?
That depends on the vessel and regulations. Many boats require greater capacity, redundancy or a separate emergency pump.
Safety: use marine-grade tinned cable, correctly rated over-current protection and watertight connections. Installation must follow the vessel and pump manufacturers' instructions.
