12V Utility Submersible
The HydraPump® 12V Utility Submersible technology is designed to efficiently transfer water
from one point to another. Simply attach to the HydraPump® 12V Utility Submersible a
standard garden hose for an out of the box ready-to-go experience. With HydraSense™
technology, a height adjustable electrical sensor attached to the pump, water is detected and
the pump is automatically activated.
Note:
• This pump is meant to be used with clear water.
• The pump is meant to operate independently when sufficient water is detected or
continuously when attended. The sensor can have its position adjusted to a desired
height.
• The pump is submersible and can operate underwater.
• This pump is often used to move large amounts of water from one basin or location
to another.
• Always be cautious when using pumps around water!
