The hand pump mod. 1038 Plastimo (supplier code P39541) is a practical solution for emptying and managing liquids on board, designed for use in the nautical field where reliability and ease of use are essential. This bilge pump is designed to be operated manually and to integrate easily into onboard systems and equipment, both as a main component and as support in situations where a non-electric system is preferred.

The model is equipped with telescopic handle and comes with elbow fittings complete with valves dedicated to aspiration and delivery. The flow rate is indicated according to ISO 15083.

Product features and details

Manual bilge pump with telescopic handle

The configuration with telescopic handle is designed to offer easier operation during pumping, especially when the pump is used in technical spaces or areas where the working position may vary. Manual operation allows working without relying on the onboard electrical power, making the pump suitable also as backup equipment.

Elbow fittings with valves (suction and discharge)

The pump is supplied with 2 elbow fittings complete with valves, one for the aspiration circuit and one for the delivery. This equipment is useful for correctly setting the flow and facilitating integration with pipes and passages typical of bilge systems.

Available data (model and connection)

• Model: PUMP 1038
• Supplier product code: P39541
• Flow rate: 45 LT/MIN
• Output: 38 MM

Typical applications in the nautical field

This hand pump for bilge is suitable for various operational needs on board, where having a simple and immediate manual system can be useful. In particular, it can be used in contexts where you want to:

• Manage bilge water during regular maintenance or in case of need.
• Having a manual solution for support, useful when you do not want to depend on electrical systems or when you prefer a direct and controlled action.
• Integrate or complement other onboard systems with a pump dedicated to emptying and moving liquids in technical areas.
• Equip an onboard kit oriented towards ease and the orderly management of drainage operations.

The actual applications depend on the system configuration and the piping present onboard; the presence of elbow fittings with valves helps to correctly set suction and delivery according to the available layout.

Operational advantages

Simplicity and control during use

A manual pump allows direct control of the pumping operation: the user manages the action immediately, with a practical and straightforward approach. This can be useful in onboard activities where quick intervention is preferred without intermediate steps.

Complete equipment for connections and flow

The supply with elbow fittings and valves for suction and delivery is an advantage during installation and configuration, as it provides components functional to the correct management of the flow. In the nautical field, where space is often limited, elbow fittings can facilitate the routing of pipes.

Compatibility with indicated outlet

The outlet indicated as 38 mm is an important data point to verify compatibility with the piping and fittings already onboard. Before purchase or installation, it is advisable to check the diameter of the planned delivery lines and the possible need for adapters (if required by the system).

Use and installation notes

General indications

For correct use, it is advisable to clearly identify:

• the point of aspiration (for example, the bilge area to be drained);
• the path of delivery (discharge or transfer, according to the onboard system);
• the arrangement of the pipes, taking into account curves and obstructions.

Valves and flow direction

The presence of valves on suction and delivery requires attention to the installation direction and the correct identification of connections. During installation, check that the fittings are positioned consistently with the desired flow and that the connections are stable and well tightened.

System check and routine maintenance

As with any component intended for liquid management on board, it is good practice to perform periodic system checks: integrity of pipes, condition of fittings, and cleanliness of suction areas. Regular checks help maintain pump operation and reduce the risk of blockages caused by residues in the bilge.
