Johnson Pump Talulah High Flow Ballast Pump 30 GPM 12V for Marine and Wakeboarding Systems

Talulah High Flow Ballast Pump - 30 GPM - 12V

With an extraordinary 30GPM rating, the Johnson Pump Talulah HighFlow Ballast Pump represents the industry gold standard of high speed, reliable and efficient reversible ballast pumps. Built with ball bearings, a solid bronze pump head, and built-in thermal protection, this ballast pump is exceptionally durable and built to last. The compact size allows for flexibility in system design without using valuable storage space and without sacrificing the versatile high volume connections unique to the design of the pump head. The Talulah HF also offers run dry protection, the integrated Run-Dry Protection circuit monitors the current draw of the pump and automatically shuts it off if conditions indicate water is no longer flowing through the pump. This innovative feature can help minimize any damage to the new neoprene orange impeller, which itself delivers faster fill/drain times and is more reliable than the previous models. In addition, the ignition protected design makes this pump suitable for installation in the bilge compartment of the boat without risk of fire or explosion due to fuel vapors. Whether for use in a new automated ballast system installation or to upgrade the pumps in an existing system for faster fill and drain times, the Talulah HF 30GPM Ballast Pump delivers the next generation of pump performance in the wakeboarding world.

Features:

• Built in Thermal Overheat Protection: Automatic reset after cooling down


• Monitor Filling: Tanks must have overfill protection


• Retrofit Possible: Important to have full bore hoses without restriction


• Dry Run Impeller*


• Intermittent Duty


• Important to have good electric installation and proper wire size (Acc. to ISO 10133)


• Recommend fresh batteries and engine running (alternator running) to ensure power supply

The Johnson Pump Talulah High Flow Ballast Pump, part number 10-24939-18, offers industry-leading performance with a robust 30 gallons per minute (GPM) flow rate, making it ideal for high-speed ballast applications in wakeboarding and marine systems. Constructed with durable components including a solid bronze pump head and ball bearings, this pump provides reliable and efficient operation even under demanding conditions. Its compact design allows for flexible installation options without sacrificing high-volume connection capabilities, enabling seamless integration into existing or new ballast systems. The Talulah HF is engineered with safety and longevity in mind, featuring built-in thermal protection that automatically resets after cooling, helping prevent overheating during extended use. Its integrated run dry protection circuit continually monitors current draw to automatically shut off the pump if water flow ceases, protecting the neoprene orange impeller, which is designed for faster fill and drain times and superior reliability compared to previous models.

Suitable for installation in bilge compartments, this ignition-protected pump minimizes fire or explosion risks in fuel vapor environments, making it a safe choice for marine applications. The pump's intermittent duty rating allows for flexible operation, while its compatibility with full bore hoses ensures unrestricted water flow. To maximize performance, proper electrical wiring and sufficient power supply are essential, ideally with fresh batteries or engine alternator running to ensure consistent voltage. The Talulah HF pump is also designed for retrofit applications, capable of replacing older models to enhance system efficiency and fill/drain speeds in automated ballast setups or existing systems. Its advanced features and rugged construction make it a dependable upgrade for wakeboarding enthusiasts and marine professionals alike.
