11.i Location
• Choose a position to mount the pump that is dry and away from standing water and is free
from obstacles.
• Mount in a position with the shortest pipe run lengths possible.
11.ii Mounting Instructions
• Gulper® IC can be mounted on a horizontal or vertical surface.
• When mounted vertically ensure that the pump head is lower
most (Fig 3).
NOTE -It is recommended that the outlet is mounted above the water
line and anti-syphon loops are fitted where applicable (see typical
installation Figs 1 - 2).
• When mounting, position the pump on surface and work-out the best angles for the hose (to
prevent kinking) and mark the 3 hole positions using the pump feet.
NOTE: The pump head may be rotated to suit the hose connections. Loosen the screw, adjust and
reposition the head to the required position (Fig 4) and tighten the screw
• Drill pilot holes of 3.2mm (1/8").
NOTE: Do not drill through hull, ensure that pump is mounted to additional board or bulkhead.
• Use the three No.8 self tappers and washers (included) to secure the pump.
• Use 19mm (3/4") or 25mm (1") smooth bore reinforced hose to connect to the pump with
hose clips.
NOTE: Barbed connections mean there is no need to cut inlets or outlets to size.
NOTE: Ensure tight connections, but do not over-tighten clamp rings/ screws/hose clips
Fig 4 - Gulper® IC Installation
• Screw p clamp to bulkhead ensuring it is located approx. 100 mm (4") from rear housing (Fig
5).
NOTE: In order to securely fasten the unit, ensure that the P clamp mounting surface is at least
19mm (3/4") minimum thickness.
11.iii Electrical Wiring
• For installation with Whale® IC accessories use pre-wired Deutsch® connectors attached
• For installation to non-whale systems - use spade connector adaptor AK2081- available
separately
• If you are not familiar with applicable electrical standards, ensure that the unit is installed by
a qualified electrician/ technician.
WARNING: Fire hazard. Wiring must comply with applicable electrical standards and include a
properly sized fuse or circuit breaker. Improper wiring can cause a fire resulting in injury or death.
NOTE: Switch off the power prior to making connections. Suggested wiring information is given as a
guide only. For full information, refer to the USCG, ABYC and ISO regulations for marine
applications and wiring gauges, connectors and fuse protection.
