Overview
The NorthStar NSQ Series 12V RV Fresh Water Pump delivers reliable, on-demand fresh water throughout your caravan, motorhome, or camper trailer — all from a single 12V DC connection. Running at up to 11.4 litres per minute with a maximum pressure of 3.8 bar (55 PSI), it features Santoprene diaphragm construction and patented DXS-3 valves for faster priming, extended service life, and quiet, consistent flow. Built-in thermal protection safeguards the motor during high-demand periods, while the automatic shut-off cuts power the instant taps are closed to protect your battery.
Purpose-built for the Australian RV and caravan industry, the 3055R is equally at home in a weekend camper trailer, a full-time off-road touring setup, a motorhome, or even a food van or coffee cart. Its self-priming design means it can run dry without damage — a real advantage when tanks run low on remote outback tracks. The vibration-isolating mounting base keeps cabin noise to a minimum, and the industry-standard footprint makes it a straightforward swap-in replacement for most existing 12V pump installations.
