The WASSERMANN model replaces common 2088-series pumps and focuses on durable, corrosion-resistant components and short dry-run tolerance so you can use it with confidence while traveling or boating.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does this pump supply steady water in an RV or boat?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe pump uses a built-in pressure switch to maintain a consistent 45 PSI and a brushless-style motor design to generate up to 4.0 gallons per minute. When you open a tap the switch senses pressure drop and activates the motor; it then shuts the unit off automatically when the line repressurizes. This delivers predictable flow for showers, sinks, and on-board appliances without manual switching.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAutomatic pressure switch starts and stops pump based on demand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e4.0 GPM flow supports common RV fixtures\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e45 PSI setpoint provides consistent water pressure\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSelf-priming for quick start-up after dry periods\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat power and installation options are available for the WASSERMANN pump?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe pump runs on 12V DC and can draw power directly from a vehicle battery or an RV cigarette-lighter socket, making it plug-and-play for many setups.
