A bilge system's function is to remove water from the hull of a boat.
The systems consist of pumps, motors to run the pumps, piping, and control.
The pumps are normally centrifugal type pumps, though any could be used as long as the pressure and flow rate are sufficient to drain the hull.
Motors are normally electric driven off of a battery or alternator from the main engine, and can be controlled automatically in the event of an emergency or manually.

How do you stop a marine mercury bilge siphon pump allowing water in to the boat?
If your engine is a sportjet, it probably has a bilge siphon system that connects to the pump. If so, the siphon hose must be "looped" from the pump above the water line, then back down to the bilge. This should prevent water from backwashing through the hose into the bilge.
Where does water collect in a ship?

Why emergency bilge suction is bellmouthed?
Emergency bilge suction is bellmouthed to facilitate the efficient collection of water and debris from the bilge. The bellmouth shape allows for a smoother flow of water into the suction pipe, reducing the risk of clogging and ensuring maximum water intake during emergencies. Additionally, this design minimizes turbulence and pressure drop, optimizing the performance of the bilge pumping system. Overall, the bellmouthed configuration enhances the reliability and effectiveness of emergency bilge operations.
