Rule New Generation 1100 12 V bilge immersion pump – code: 16.473.12 – Osculati

Rule New Generation 1100 12 V bilge submersible pump (Osculati) – code 16.473.12

The Rule New Generation 1100 bilge submersible pump is a solution designed for bilge water evacuation and typical onboard drainage needs. This model in the 12 V (supplier code 16.473.12 – Osculati) version incorporates a series of design features aimed at simplifying installation and ensuring smoother operation in the discharge circuit, such as the check valve and the air vent incorporated into the pump body.

The “New Generation” range also stands out for the presence of a optimized impeller and a thermal protection integrated, useful elements in a nautical context where reliability and ease of maintenance are key aspects.

Features and construction details

Integrated devices

• Optimized impeller: designed to promote high flow with low consumption (as indicated by the manufacturer).
• Built-in thermal protection: thermal protection integrated into the pump.
• Non-return valve: helps to prevent backflow of water from the discharge hose (note: excluded on some series codes, not referring to this item).
• Built-in air vent: helps prevent air bubble formation in the circuit and works together with the non-return valve.
• Threaded discharge hose connector: designed for a easier installation and tidy.

Note on the non-return valve

The range description indicates that the check valve is present, except for some specific codes (16.483.12/16.482.12). This item is identified as 16.473.12, therefore it falls among the models for which the valve is provided.

Typical onboard applications

This bilge immersion pump is indicated for uses consistent with its intended purpose, particularly in nautical and onboard system applications:

• Bilge drainage in case of water accumulation.
• Discharge management outwards through a tube, reducing the possibility of backflow thanks to the non-return valve.
• Installations in technical spaces where compact dimensions and quick connections via threaded hose fittings are useful.
• on mechanical parts and components that require maintenance interventions. In the nautical field, the practicality of the aerosol is useful for reaching difficult areas or for operating in confined spaces, typical of lockers, technical compartments, and engine areas. and replacement of existing pumps, when looking for a 12 V model from the Rule New Generation series.

For a correct choice, it is good practice to verify that voltage, flow rate and hose diameter are compatible with the system already present onboard and with the discharge hose used.

Operational advantages

Smoother flow in the discharge circuit

The combination of check valve and built-in air vent is designed to make the circuit behavior more stable, limiting water return from the tube and helping to reduce the presence of air in the passage.

Simpler and tidier installation

I threaded discharge hose connector help speed up assembly operations and achieve a cleaner connection with the piping, useful both in first installation and replacement.

Integrated protection

The presence of built-in thermal protection represents a functional element for use in technical environments, where the pump may be subject to variable operating conditions.

Model selection based on needs

Within the “New Generation” family there are several variants; this item is the version 1100 in 12 V. The flow and absorption data reported above allow the model to be clearly framed during selection or replacement.

Usage and installation notes

Practical indications

• Voltage check: ensure that the system is at 12 V before connection.
• Tube selection: use compatible piping with the hose holder 25/28 mm suitable for this model.
• Placement: install the pump so that it works correctly submerged and the discharge hose path is as smooth as possible.
• Backflow prevention: the check valve integrated is designed to limit the return of water from the hose; it is still important to take care of the system layout (passages, bends, fastenings).
• Periodic checks: in the nautical field it is advisable to periodically inspect the suction area and the discharge circuit, removing any residues that may obstruct the flow.

Product identification

For technical requests, spare parts or comparison with other models of the same series, refer to:

• Osculati Code / Supplier product code: 16.473.12
• SKU: OSCU00000380
• Name: Rule New Generation 1100 12 V bilge pump

If you are replacing an existing pump, also compare space requirements (Ø base and height) and hose connection to reduce adaptation times during installation.
