Marco UP3 Electric Pump

Marco UP3 is a versatile and reliable electric gear pump designed for pumping a variety of liquids. The pump is particularly suitable for handling drinking water, diesel fuels, light lubricating oils and anti-icing agents, so its applications range from boating, vehicle fleet to industrial applications. The pump's self-priming function allows it to lift liquids up to 1.5 meters, making it

ideal for demanding installation locations. The pump structure is designed to withstand use and environmental requirements. The pump's bronze parts ensure a long service life and reliability, while the built-in mechanical pressure switch improves the automatic control and safety of the device. User-friendliness has also been taken into account in that the UP3 is compact, lightweight and easy to install in small spaces. An important safety point is that the Marco UP3 is only intended for handling safe, non-explosive liquids. Therefore, the pump must not be used for pumping gasoline, for example. This precaution ensures safe operation and a long service life of the device.

The Marco UP3 is available in two different models, differentiated by operating voltage and power consumption. Both models offer the same capacity, i.e. pumping up to 15 liters of liquid per minute, but their technical details are optimized for different power sources. The 12V model is particularly popular as it is optimized for the energy needs of small boats and cars. This model consumes 6A of current and requires a 10A fuse. It weighs 3.1 kg, which makes it suitable for installation in heavier vehicles. The 24V model, on the other hand, effectively meets the needs of high-voltage environments, such as larger ships or vehicles using a 24V electrical system. This model consumes less current, only 3A, and requires a 5A fuse. It is also significantly lighter, weighing only 1.3 kg, which improves mobility and quick installation. Both models use similar connectors (BSP 3/8") and require the same diameter hose (13 mm), making it easier to obtain spare parts and accessories.

Installing the Marco UP3 electric pump is easy, but for safety and optimal operation, the installation instructions must be followed carefully. First, make sure that the pump is installed on a horizontal and stable surface that reduces vibration and ensures smooth operation. The connections and hoses must be attached carefully to avoid leaks and ensure optimal flow.

When connecting the pump, make sure to use the correct voltage version. 12V and 24V models should not be connected to the wrong power source, as this can cause an overload and impair the operation of the pump's electrical components. Always check the size of the fuse used in the pump system (10A or 5A depending on the model) to protect against damage to the device. Incompatible liquids such as gasoline or other explosive compounds should be avoided. Also, make sure that the pump is not run dry, as this can damage its internal components.

To ensure the longevity of your Marco UP3 electric pump, regular maintenance and proper use are essential. It is a good idea to check the internal parts of the pump at least once a year for possible wear, blockages or signs of corrosion. Protecting the bronze components is especially important if the pump has been used in aggressive environments, such as salt water. The pump should always be rinsed thoroughly after use, especially if it has been moved.

fluids such as anti-freeze. This prevents deposits and ensures the proper functioning of the pump's internal components. In addition, regular inspection of the pump seals and hose connections helps to avoid leaks.

However, if any part of the device wears out over time, Marco offers a comprehensive range of spare parts, including internal seals, gears and connectors. We recommend using only original spare parts to ensure the performance of the device.
