Central bilge monitoring system

[Mako]

With 4 watertight compartments I'm considering a single panel to monitor bilge pump activation and also high water alarms, versus all the multiple lights and alarms. Any suggestions for a manufacturer or system? I'd rather stick with an old fashioned analog system versus IC with digital display.

I am a KISS type so I would suggest a Tank Tender .

It can monitor 10 individual fluid depths , so with 4 for WT compartments , you still have 6 for fuel, water or waste.

If you really want an analog system, you mght consider building it your self.

Bilge pump activation is really just a tap off of the float switch back to a light. Connect that to a 12V counter and you have number of operations as well as real time status.

High water is just a float switch(s) tied back to a light and or siren.

Our Bayliner is set up from the factory with bilge pump status lights at the helm, just as described.

I'd take a look at Aqualarm. I bet you can put together what you need from their products.

Had Aqualarm make me a custom panel with cycle counters. Happy with the results.
