SEAFLO 25A Electromagnetic Bilge Pump Float Switch 12V 24V 32V
Automatic water-level control for manual bilge pumps
An enclosed, mercury-free electromagnetic float switch for converting a separate non-automatic bilge pump to water-level-controlled operation. The protective strainer helps shield the moving mechanism from debris, while the quick-attach base supports cleaning and maintenance.
Key Features
- ✔ Designed to control a separate manual bilge pump drawing no more than 25A.
- ✔ Suitable for 12V, 24V and 32V DC bilge systems on motorboats, yachts, RIBs, fishing boats and workboats.
- ✔ The switch rating must exceed the pump’s maximum/stall current, not merely its normal running current.
- ✔ For high-load pumps or complex alarm/control circuits, use a correctly rated relay and follow the vessel wiring design.

Questions & Answers
Does this item include a bilge pump?
No. It is a water-level switch for controlling a separate non-automatic pump.
Can it switch any 25A pump directly?
Only if the pump’s maximum current and the full circuit design remain within the 25A switch rating; otherwise use a suitable relay.
Does it contain mercury?
No. SEAFLO specifies a mercury-free electromagnetic design.
Will it work on 12V and 24V boats?
Yes, and it is also listed for 32V DC systems when wired and protected correctly.
