I believe Burlen offer an "electronic" (points free) version but last time I looked I could only see a 12V model.
The standard SU pump is effectively maintenance-free if the car is regularly used.
After long periods standing idle the points can stick (in which instance a whack with a bit of wood is all the 'maintenance' mine ever needed, to jolt them free again).
I recently overhauled the pump on my Ulster rep after about 35 years in service - I only did so because I was chasing after a fault which turned out in the end to be a blocked petrol tap - so it was completely unnecessary.
