Jabsco Par-Max HD Heavy-Duty Freshwater Pump — 12V, 4.0 GPM
The mid-range model in the Jabsco Par-Max HD Heavy Duty series — 4.0 GPM at 12V with the heavy-duty motor and cast aluminum lower housing that define the HD platform. A strong fit for boats with two to three fixtures running simultaneously, where the 3 GPM HD model is at its limit and the 5 GPM is more than needed. The co-molded diaphragm, integrated bypass module, and sealed pressure switch deliver smooth, on-demand operation, and the Quick Connect Strainer is included. Self-priming, run-dry safe, and quiet thanks to vibration-dampening mounting feet.
Key Features
- 4.0 GPM flow rate at 12V DC — mid-range output in the Par-Max HD series
- Heavy-duty motor and cast aluminum lower housing — built for long life at high pressures and demanding duty cycles
- Integrated bypass module — reduces pump cycling and provides smoother flow
- Quick Connect Strainer included — protects pump from supply line debris
- Co-molded diaphragm technology for long service life and durability
- Integrated, sealed pressure switch for automatic on-demand operation
- Quick-connect ports for fast installation, servicing, and maintenance
- Vibration-dampening mounting feet for quiet operation
- Self-priming — flexible installation without manual priming
- Run-dry capable — no damage if the tank runs empty
Compatible Applications
- Two-to-three-fixture freshwater systems on mid-size powerboats, sailboats, and cruisers
- High-pressure freshwater systems requiring more output than the HD 3 GPM provides
- 12V DC installations requiring cast aluminum construction for long-term reliability
- Systems where the HD 5 GPM is more output than required
Parts Desk Insights
The Par-Max HD 4 GPM is the right choice when the 3 GPM HD is at its limit under simultaneous two-fixture demand and you don’t need the full output of the 5 GPM. It’s the practical mid-range option for mid-size cruisers with a galley, head, and occasional third fixture. For a companion pressure switch variant, see the Par-Max HD 4 GPM (Q401J-118-S3A) and confirm which switch specification your system requires. For lower output in the HD series, the Par-Max HD 3 GPM (Q301J-115-S3A) is the step-down. For higher output, the Par-Max HD 5 GPM and Par-Max HD 6 GPM are the step-ups. Add a GROCO PST-1 Accumulator Tank or Jabsco Accumulator Tank downstream to smooth pressure delivery and reduce pump cycling.
