The remote stand enables the pump to be located a distance away from where the actual pumping is being done, freeing up space on a crowded service dock. The pump is controlled by a switch on the remote stand at the dock. One or more remotes can be used off the same pump, similar to a central vac in a house. A practical solution to a mobile pumpout is the DPK 240. A remote stand at the end of each finger dock is a popular installation.
Remote wiring is low voltage and is color coded for easy connection.
