Shower Sump; Freshwater System; Hosecoil - World Cat 2009 boat Owner's Manual

BILGE PUMPS / FLOAT SWITCHES
Your 320 EC is equipped with two 1500 GPH bilge pumps and two 500 GPH bilge pumps. Each pump
is connected to a float switch which automatically triggers the pump when water comes to rest in the bilge.
The float switches are connected to the battery management panel and receive power from the fuses along
the top of the panel. These fuses are constantly energized and ensure the safety of your boat even when the
battery switches are in the "off" position. The pumps can be manually engaged using the switches located
on either side of the helm.
The aft bilge pumps are located behind the aft rigging compartment and can accessed through the
inspection plates in the motorwell, forward of the engines. The wiring for these pumps is secured on the
outboard side of the centerline stringer which is visible from the inspection port. The forward pumps are
located beneath the cabin liner. They can be reached through the inspection ports installed in the cabin
floor on either side of the master berth.
Inspect the operation of your bilge pumps and their connections at least annually. To do so, activate the
pump by momentarily lifting the arm on the float switch, then check the operation using the switches at the
helm. When testing, do not allow the pumps to run dry for more than two to three seconds. Extended dry
operation can result in damage to your pump. Keeping your bilge areas clean can also help extend the life
of your pump.

SHOWER SUMP

To collect discharge water from the galley sink, head sink, and shower drain, a sump is installed in the
starboard sponson. The sump is equipped with a bilge pump to evacuate grey water overboard and can be
accessed using the hatch in the floor of the equipement compartment. To gain access, remove the bulkhead
which divides the head compartment from the equipment room. Check the sump at least twice per year to
prevent the buildup of waste which could led to clogs, more often if the sinks and shower are heavily used.

FRESHWATER SYSTEM

The freshwater pump and wiring are located under the port lounge seat and can be accessed by remov-
ing the tackle unit on the aft vertical wall of the seatbox. The freshwater pump is connected to the freshwa-
ter tank also located in this area. The tank is filled through a fitting located on the port decktop.
During the initial fill of the water tank, or any refills after the system was completely purged, run
the freshwater pump to fill the plumbing lines and water heater for extra capacity.
To pressurize the freshwater system, use the switch located on the port instrument panel. Similar to
residential well pumps, the freshwater pump will pressurize the system to 45 psi. then shut down until the
pressure drops below that level. Most owners leave the pump "on" throughout the day, and use the system
when necessary. On the 320, the freshwater pump feeds the port Hosecoil™, water heater, galley faucet,
head faucet, and marine head. To view the layout of the freshwater system see the drawing on page 14.

HOSECOIL™

To operate the Hosecoil™, remove the cover plate and extend the hose as far as necessary. Open the
nozzle by twisting it, adjust to the desired spray pattern and operate similar to any residential water
hose. When you are finished, close the nozzle and return the hose to the cylinder.
