Product Manual PDF (view)The Jabsco 8860-0003 is a bronze Flexible Impeller pump with a Lip Type seal, coupled to a 12 Volt DC Motor. This pump has a nominal flow rate of 1.8 GPM (6.8 LPM), and is self-priming from dry up to 4 feet (1.2m) and a lift to 15 feet (5m) when primed. Be sure suction lines are airtight or pump will not self-prime. The motor on this pump is a 12 volt DC, Permanent Magnet Type, Fully enclosed, Stainless Steel Shaft, with a 4 amp draw, and requires a 10 amp fuse. The Motor runs hot; about 180 degrees F is a normal temperature. The Motor meets USCG Electrical Standards (Title 33, Chapter 1, Part 183; Subpart 1) for IGNITION PROTECTION on gasoline powered vessels. Small bilge debris present no problem to these brass bodied, flexible impeller pumps. Their simple design means fewer wearing parts. The pump must be mounted in a dry location - the motor is not waterproof and must not be submerged. Selection of a cool location will generally extend pump motor life. The unit can be mounted in any desired position. It is best to mount so that water dripping from loose port connection will not wet the motor. The pump head may be rotated 180 degrees on the motor to reverse direction of flow. Temperature of pumped liquid may be in the range of 45 degrees160 degrees F (10 degrees70 degrees C). Pressure for normal operation should not exceed 35 feet of head (15 psi).
Do not pump gasoline, solvents, thinners or other flammable liquids.

Applications
Use for bilge pumping, livewell circulation, washdown and general pumping requirements. When bilge water contains significant amounts of oil, use impeller No. 147500003. For intermittent duty, motor may be reversed. Pump has external garden hose threads and internal 3/8 Inch pipe threads. Use hose that does not kink when bent and with sufficient wall thickness to prevent collapse when used on suction side of pump. Hoses should be routed so that some water will be retained in pump body to wet the impeller. Wetting the impeller aids in priming and extends impeller life. Use a strainer on the intake hose to stop trash and solids from going through the pump. All hoses must have airtight connections to enable faster priming. Do not pump solvents, thinner, or petroleum derivatives. Impeller and motor damage will occur. Flexible impeller pumps must NOT be run dry, as the pumped liquid is the lubricant for the impeller. Observe the outlet and shut off pump as soon as liquid stops flowing. An automatic level switch is convenient to control the pump. The pump cannot run against a closed outlet such as encountered when using a garden hose type shutoff nozzle.
