Jabsco 18590-2092 Macerator Pump, 12VDC

The Jabsco Macerator Pump is the ideal solution for emptying marine holding tanks when not in a discharge restricted area. It is recommended to flush the holding tanks with several gallons of water after each pump-out to reduce the possibility of a continued build-up of sediment, which could cause potential blockage.

The Jabsco Macerator Pump is also the ideal pump for emptying fish boxes and livewell receptacles. When the livewell tank is above the waterline of the boat, gravity can be used to empty it. However, if the livewell tank is not installed in this format, the Jabsco Macerator Pump's self-priming capabilities and grinding properties make it beneficial for evacuation.

Fish boxes are typically mounted into the floor of the vessel and are often below or only partially above the waterline. The Jabsco Macerator Pump's characteristics make it well-suited for this application, as it can easily handle bait residue particles, ice, fish scales, and anything else that may be found in the fish box.

The DC macerator waste pump has a self-priming capability up to 5 feet, allowing it to empty a typical 30-gallon (115-liter) holding tank in less than 3 minutes. The pump's duty cycle is 15 minutes continuous, which means a 180-gallon (680-liter) tank can be emptied in a single operation.

The Jabsco Macerator Pump includes a Run-Dry Protection Device that shuts off the pump, ensuring its longevity. It features a permanent magnet type motor that is fully enclosed with a stainless steel shaft, providing reliable and durable performance.

In summary, the Jabsco Macerator Pump is the ideal choice for emptying marine holding tanks, fish boxes, and livewell receptacles, offering efficient, self-priming, and protective features that make it a valuable asset for boat owners and marine enthusiasts.
