Will it work if I use a 12V 10A DC power supply?

The pump requires a maximum of 12V / 5A (=maximum 60W).

The data sheet:

https://asset.conrad.com/media10/add/160267/c1/-/gl/000552372DS01/datasheet-552372-comet-ocean-softstart-12v-11049259-lower-voltage dip pump-1260-lh-15-m.pdf

Conclusion:

YES, a 12V DC 10A power supply is enough.

I would use a power supply with at least 6A so that the power supply is not operated in the interface (100% full load). A power reserve is then “heavy” for the power supply.

Good luck!

The data sheet is 5 A maximum.

See data sheet. There the maximum current is shown at 5 A. The power supply is therefore loose enough, which can be loaded up to 10 A. This allows you to operate 2 of these pumps simultaneously.
