LocMarine LM-DBS-2 Dual Bilge Pump Y-Splitter for Catamarans & Dual Bilge Monitoring

Simplify Dual-Bilge Monitoring. The LocMarine LM-DBS-2 Dual Bilge Pump Y-Splitter connects two bilge-pump or switch monitoring points to a single compatible monitoring input. It is particularly useful on catamarans and vessels with more than one bilge area, where activity from either connected pump needs to be detected without using two separate monitoring inputs.

Key Features & Benefits

• Monitor Two Bilges Through One Input: Connect two bilge pumps or compatible switch signals to one monitoring input, supporting installations with separate port and starboard bilge areas.
• Combined Activity Detection: Activity from either connected bilge can be detected through the shared input. The system does not identify which individual pump or bilge activated.
• Plug-and-Play Connections: Pre-molded, factory-terminated connectors are intended to connect to compatible bilge monitoring wiring without manual wire splicing or heat-shrinking.
• IP67-Rated Connector Assembly: Water- and dust-resistant construction is suited to appropriately installed marine electrical connections, including moisture-prone compartments.
• Compact Y-Splitter Layout: The short cable assembly is convenient where bilge components and wiring routes occupy limited space.

Technical Specifications

• Product Type: Dual bilge-pump monitoring Y-splitter
• Connection Configuration: Two monitored bilge-pump/switch connections combined into one monitoring input
• Connector Construction: Factory-terminated, molded plug-in connection assembly
• Ingress Protection: IP67
• Nominal System Application: 12V DC marine monitoring circuits
• Approximate Listed Dimensions: 10 x 2 x 1 in. (retailer-provided product dimensions)
• Approximate Listed Weight: 0.03 lb (retailer-provided product weight)
• Intended Use: Catamarans and multi-compartment or dual-bilge monitoring installations

Compatibility

• Intended for compatible LocMarine boat-monitoring and bilge-sensor input configurations; use the appropriate hub and connector arrangement.
• Two bilge activity signals share a single input. A combined alert cannot distinguish port from starboard or identify which connected pump triggered.
• This is a monitoring connection accessory, not a pump controller or an independent alarm. Existing pump switching, operation, and circuit protection remain separate.

Installation & Setup

• Check mating connector configuration and the LocMarine hub wiring arrangement before installation.
• Connect the two intended monitored circuits to the splitter and route the common connection to the applicable monitoring input, following the system instructions.
• Secure cabling away from moving equipment, sharp edges, and excessive heat. Protect connectors from continuous submersion despite the IP67 rating.
• Test each bilge pump or float switch separately to verify the shared input detects either activation. Do not expect the app to label the individual pump that activated.
