Frequently Asked Questions
How does the Quick EBSN 20 protect against excessive battery rundown?
The switch incorporates built-in battery rundown protection which monitors the battery voltage. If the voltage drops to a critically low level, it will disengage the bilge pump, preventing further discharge and protecting the battery from damage.
What is the purpose of the switch-on/switch-off delay feature?
The switch-on/switch-off delay prevents rapid cycling of the bilge pump. This means the pump will not continuously turn on and off in response to minor water level fluctuations, which saves energy, reduces wear on the pump motor, and conserves battery power.
Can the Quick EBSN 20 be remotely controlled?
Yes, the Quick EBSN 20 offers optional remote control capabilities. This allows for remote indication of operation status and the option to manually switch the pump on remotely.
Is the Quick EBSN 20 waterproof?
Yes, the Quick EBSN 20 features a robust, resin-coated watertight casing designed to withstand harsh marine environments and submersion, ensuring reliable operation even in wet bilge conditions.
What is the amp rating of the Quick EBSN 20?
The Quick EBSN 20 has an amp rating of 20 Amps, making it suitable for controlling most standard bilge pumps commonly found on recreational and commercial vessels.
