instructions are passed on to the end user.
Gulper® IC is designed for installation in recreational marine vessels only and operated on 12 or 24
V d.c. electrical supply only. If it is intended for use for any other purpose or with any other liquid, it is
the user's responsibility to ensure that the pump is suitable for the intended use and that the
materials are fully compatible with the liquids to be used. The Whale® Gulper ® IC pump is NOT
recommended for domestic application.
• This pump must not be mounted below the water line when connected to an
intake or outlet unless the system has a vented loop (see Fig 1 - 2).
• Not suitable for pumping flammable liquids, diesel, chemicals etc.
• This pump is not intended for damage control.
• With all applications it is important that a system of safe working practice is
applied to installation, use and maintenance. Ensure the electric supply is turned off and
waste water system is drained before installation. In order to securely fasten the unit, ensure
that the mounting surface is a minimum thickness of 19mm (3/4") (when fitted with the screws
supplied).
• NOTE Do not screw directly to the hull - must be mounted on a bulkhead or on an additional
board.
• NOTE - DO NOT unscrew the rear section, as interference with the internal electrics will
render the pump unfit for use and invalidate the warranty. This is a non-serviceable part of the
pump.
• WARNING: Fire hazard. Wiring must comply with applicable electrical standards and include a
properly sized fuse or circuit breaker. Improper wiring can cause a fire resulting in injury or
death. Switch off the power while making connections.
Suggested wiring information is given as a guide only. For full information, refer to the USCG, ABYC
and ISO regulations for marine applications and wiring gauges, connectors and fuse protection.
