Digital Yacht Bilge iQ Smart Bilge Pump Controller

The Digital Yacht Bilge iQ Smart Bilge Pump Controller adds monitoring, control, and operating history to a conventional electric bilge-pump system. It can be installed with common manual or ON-OFF-AUTO arrangements and is designed to work with existing pump and switch setups. Once connected to NMEA 2000, compatible multifunction displays can show pump status, operating alerts, and switching information. Built-in Wi-Fi also gives a phone or tablet access to pump history and real-time operating information without requiring a separate display at the bilge.

Bilge iQ monitors the actual current draw of the pump, giving the owner a way to confirm that the motor is working rather than relying only on a switch position. The system can generate alerts for conditions such as pump operation, dry running, float-switch problems, high current, or low voltage. Accurate run-time history can be useful when maintaining bilge-water discharge filters because replacement can be based on actual pump use instead of guesswork. It can also integrate with compatible Victron Cerbo GX systems for broader monitoring and remote visibility.

• NMEA 2000 pump monitoring and control
• Built-in wireless interface for phones and tablets
• Customizable system alerts and fault reporting
• Real-time pump current monitoring
• Manual override remains available for fail-safe operation

Install Bilge iQ where its wiring stays protected and accessible, then verify the existing pump, float switch, and manual control arrangement before commissioning the system. An optional additional float switch can be used for a separate high-water alarm when the installation calls for it. After setup, test both normal and manual operation so the pump still performs as expected if network control is unavailable.
