The Whale Watermaster 12V Water Pump & Filter is a reliable pressure pump designed for use in caravan, campervan and motorhome fresh water systems. Delivering a flow rate of up to 8.0 litres per minute and a maximum pressure of 2.1 bar / 30 PSI, it provides a steady water supply to taps, showers and other onboard water outlets.
The pump features 15mm inlet and outlet connections and is supplied with a choice of fittings, making it easy to integrate into a variety of leisure vehicle water systems. Included in the box are 2 x 15mm to 1/2" BSP threaded fittings and 2 x 15mm to 1/2" barbed fittings, allowing connection to either compatible threaded plumbing or flexible water hose.
Designed for automatic operation, the integrated pressure switch activates the pump when a tap or shower is opened and switches it off again when the outlet is closed. This makes it suitable for pressurised water systems where convenient, on-demand water is required.
The pump is also supplied with a water filter, helping to protect the pump from debris entering from the fresh water tank and contributing to reliable operation of the water system.
