Jabsco Macerator Pump

The Jabsco 18590 series DC macerator pump unit is the ideal solution for emptying marine holding tanks when not in a discharge-restricted area. Its also ideal for use in fish box/livewell tank evacuation when these are not above the waterline of the boat where gravity can be used to empty them. Fish boxes, however, are typically mounted into the floor of the vessel and are very often below the waterline or only partially above the waterline. This pump has the characteristics that lends itself to this application. The bait residue particles of ice, fish scales and anything else that could potentially be found in any fish box will be easily passed by this mascerator unit, and its self-priming capabilities are perfect for fish box installations common to many of todays sportfishing boats.

The pump will macerate and pump all waste and tissue normally found in marine and recreational vehicle waste systems. The 4-blade design in the stainless steel cutter reduces particle size to 1/8´ (3mm) maximum.

Self-priming to 5 feet when impeller is wet (4 feet when dry), this pump may be mounted in any convenient point in the waste discharge system. It will empty a typical 30-gallon (115 liter) holding tank in less than 3 minutes. Duty cycle of the pump is 15 minutes continuous, which means a 180-gallon tank (680 liters) can be emptied in a single operation.
