Overview
Rule-Mate
Features: 
Powerful bilge pump and a new non-mercury float switch in a single housing 
While fully automated, the pump will only turn on when the water level rises 
There is no cycling and battery drain 
The pump remains off until the internal float switch rises 
The pump then stays on until the water is evacuated 
The pump's internal computer senses no load (water) against the impeller and then shuts off 
Quick release inlet strainer allows rapid cleaning 
A detachable strainer provides easy access to the impeller area for removal of debris 
For medium sized yachts and motor cruisers 
Improved Switching with a Protective Mode 
Upgraded of the on/off mechanism. The previous design activates the pump using a magnet in a float “cube” and a reed switch to sense the water around the pump 
Water is sensed by an interruption in an electromagnetic field generated by the new circuit board 
To turn the pump off, the circuit board senses the amount of work the motor is doing (via amp draw) and once the circuit board senses the motor is doing less work, the board turns off the pump 
The circuit board includes a fail-safe feature which measures the amount of work the motor is performing and the length of time the motor is running 
If debris, such as a wet paper towel, becomes lodged against the pump, it could “trick” the pump into thinking water remained in the bilge which could deplete the vessel's battery 
When the circuit board senses the motor's running but not pumping water for longer than fifteen seconds, the pump will enter into a cycling mode in the same fashion as the computerized pumps 
The pumps turn off and activate the motor every two and a half minutes and if it senses water, it will continue to run until the water has been removed from the bilge 
After the debris is removed, the pump will automatically revert to the level sensing mode
