IC - Intelligent Control Technology

At the heart of every Whale® IC product lies innovative electronic control circuitry built

in. This enables IC sensor accessories to communicate directly with IC pumps to

control their performance. These accessories send signals to built-in intelligent

software which then control the pumps to react as required.

Gulper® IC

The Gulper® IC fully automatic self-priming pump is designed as a remote mounting

bilge pump. Output capacity depends on installation and operating conditions.

REMOTE MOUNTED BILGE APPLICATION

Save time and money by reducing four separate components to one pre-wired

system. Remote mounting automatic Gulper® IC receives signals from Strainer IC
