Automatic pump with smart operation features an internal chip and a built-in thermal cut off that cycles every 2-1/2 minutes to detect water, then shuts down if no water is present to protect the pump and vessel. Pumps are completely submersible, rust- and corrosion-proof, as well as ignition protected. Impellers are optimized to provide greater flow at a consistent amperage, with back flow prevention to reduce the amount of water left over in the bilge.
