Shurflo by Pentair PIRANHA™ Ballast 1100 Pump - 12 VDC, 1100 GPH

The Shurflo by Pentair PIRANHA™ Ballast 1100 Pump is purpose-built for marine and tactical water transfer applications where reliability under demanding field conditions is non-negotiable. Operating on 12 VDC power, this 1100 GPH ballast pump delivers the flow rate and pressure consistency required for boat ballast systems, emergency water displacement, and portable fluid management in remote or austere environments. Whether you're operating in coastal tactical scenarios, managing bilge systems on patrol vessels, or executing water recovery operations, this pump meets the performance standards expected by professionals who depend on equipment when conventional support is unavailable.

Built with high-density nylon housing and a heavy-duty water-cooled motor, the PIRANHA delivers unparalleled reliability through thermal management and corrosion-resistant construction. The anti-airlock feature allows the pump to automatically clear trapped air during priming cycles, eliminating the need for manual venting and ensuring consistent prime under field conditions. At 1.2 lbs and compact dimensions of 7 x 3 x 9 inches, this pump integrates seamlessly into confined spaces typical of boat engine compartments, vehicle-mounted systems, or portable tactical water equipment. The 12 VDC specification ensures compatibility with standard vehicle electrical systems and portable battery banks commonly found in field operations.

Tactical operators, maritime personnel, and emergency responders benefit most from the PIRANHA's combination of compact form factor and proven durability in saltwater and freshwater environments. Installation requires basic electrical integration with 12V power and inlet/outlet hose connections; compatibility with standard 1/2-inch or 3/4-inch fittings ensures rapid field deployment. The water-cooled motor design prevents overheating during continuous operation, critical for sustained pump cycles in high-demand scenarios. This pump is ideal for retrofit ballast systems on tactical boats, mobile water management platforms, and any application requiring dependable 1100 GPH transfer capability from a compact, self-priming package.
