SPECIFICATION
• Water cooled high efficiency motor for long time operation during power outage
• Use a deep-cycle marine battery for maximum performance
• High quality surface finish and corrosion resistant thermoplastic structure for long life and minimum maintenance
• Reliable reed sensor water detection for automatic operation
• Includes water alarm system, controller, charger, float switch, pump, and battery box
• Easy installation without any major plumbing changes
NOTE: Pump must be filled with water before operation. Running the pump dry will cause damage to the shaft
seal.
INSTALLATION
NOTE: Install the battery back-up system when the primary sump pump isn't needed. Read the instruction and
prepare all suppliers before starting.

Verify that the existing primary sump pump is in good working order. If the primary pump is questionable,
replace with the same or a higher HP pump. The primary pump is better to have a vertical float switch or
electrical switch. Tethered float switch takes more sump pit space and might interfere with the backup DC
pump.

Manually operate your primary sump pump and pump out the water in your sump pit. Do not let the pump run
dry. This will damage the pump.

Disconnect the primary sump pump power source before attempting to install. Never handle a pump with wet
hands or when standing on wet or damp surface or in water. Fatal electrical shock could occur.

Remove any silt or accumulated debris from the sump pit and surrounding area.
Battery back-up pump installation
There are two ways to install the battery backup pumps. If the sump pit base is bigger than 18" in diameter that is
enough to locate both primary pump and the DC pump. The DC pump can be installed with the primary pump on
the same base or a little bit higher than the primary pump. Otherwise, the DC pump will be installed above the
primary sump pump.
The steps of the installation the DC pump on the same base with the primary sump pump is pretty much the same
as to install the DC pump above the primary pump. Here is how to install the DC pump.
1. Remove the hose coupling or cut the main discharge pipe.
2. Separate the primary sump pump from the discharge pipe.
3. Lift the primary sump pump and the attached the discharge pipe out of the sump pit.
4. Wrap the thread of the discharge of the DC pump with Teflon tape. Thread a 90° , 1-1/4" FPT elbow onto
the discharge of the DC pump.
5. Wrap the thread of the check valve with Teflon tape and thread the check valve in the 90° elbow.
Note: If you check valve is a rubber check valve, you need a 1-1/4" nipple and a 1-1/4" FPT x 1-1/4" slip
adaptor and a piece of 1-1/4" PVC pipe to connect with the rubber check valve.
6. Install a check valve in the primary pump discharge pipe. Install the rubber hoses on the check valves.
