Santa Ana, CA (May, 2009) - Xylem-Jabsco (www.jabsco.com), a recognized leader in marine water pressure and washdown pumps, is proud to introduce the new Par-Max Series™ 7.0 GPM Water Pressure Pump.  "More and more boats are now fitted with a pressurized water system for sinks, toilets, showers, refrigerators with ice makers, and taps," says Jay Naval, Product Manager at Xylem.  "The high pressure capability of this five chamber pump provides exceptional flow and stable water pressure to easily handle the demand of 3 to 4 outlets at one time."

The built in bypass design recirculates the back pressure back into the pump to reduce unwanted cycling when the pump is restricted, which results in quieter and smoother flow. For best results an accumulator tank should be installed with this pump.

The Par-Max 7.0 GPM Water Pressure Pump includes a Pumpgard^TM strainer, soft rubber mounts, and quick connect fittings for ease of installation. They self prime up to 10ft (3m) and run dry without damage. Manufactured from corrosion resistant materials, this Par-Max is capable of pumping water up to 70°C (160°F). Available in either 12 or 24 volt DC versions, the Par-Max 7.0 GPM Water Pressure Pump is certified to EN ISO 8846 Marine (Ignition Protection).

The Jabsco Par-Max 7.0 GPM Series Water Pressure Pump is available now at a MSRP of $399.00. Contact your local marine retail store or distributor for more information, or visit us at www.jabsco.com.
