I think that if the breaker is of the proper amp rating to protect the wire used in the system, then it should be fine to eliminate the fuse at the pump. My new (Shurflo) pump came setup the same way as you described, but it works fine. I did have to run new, larger gage wire to accommodate the amperage which was greater than that required by the original pump. I also had to locate the new pump "within 6 feet of the tank", rather than putting it where the original was. And, eliminate the accumulator!

I have given up on the set up. My question is. do I need an in line fuse when it is wired thru the dc panel with a separate breaker. If I can hard wire it in I will, otherwise I will get a traditional fuse holder to replace it.
