 INSTALLATION

1.  Mount the power unit on the wall at least 36 inches off the floor and within 3 feet of a 120 VAC 

electrical outlet. Secure to the wall studs or anchor securely to a block wall. Make sure to keep all 

sides of the power unit clear of obstructions by at least 12“. DO NOT PLUG THE POWER UNIT 

INTO THE 120VAC OUTLET AT THIS TIME.

2.  Connect the BLACK battery lead to the BLACK terminal on the power unit. Tighten the terminal 

retention knob securely by hand. Do not use any tools to tighten as this may break the retention 

knob.

3.  Connect the RED battery lead to the RED terminal on the power unit. Tighten the terminal 

retention knob securely by hand. Do not use any tools to tighten the terminal retention knob as 

this may break the retention knob.

4.  Connect the BLACK battery lead to the BLACK terminal on your 12 VDC Deep Cycle Battery. 

Secure the connection per the battery manufacturer’s recommendation.

5.  Connect the RED battery lead to the RED terminal on your 12 VDC Deep Cycle Battery. Secure 

the connection per the battery manufacturer’s recommendation.

6.  Plug the power unit into the 120 VAC outlet. 

7.  Confirm that the Charger Switch and Power Switch are in the “OFF” Position. Plug your sump 

pump into either of the two 120 VAC Output Power Outlets. 

8.  Turn on both the Charger Switch and the Power Switch. The LEDs above both switches should be 

green. Your system is now properly setup.

 TROUBLE-SHOOTING

 

 

    Always disconnect the power unit from power sources before handling. This guide 

is designed to help identify reasons for potential operating problems. It is not a service guide. 

Dismantling of the power unit voids warranty. Servicing of power unit should be referred to the factory 

or its authorized service centers.

NOTE: The manufacturer assumes no responsibility for injury or damage associated with disassembly 

or modification of the power unit. Consult with customer service before attempting any disassembly.

 TEST

To verify that your system is setup properly to operate in the event of a power failure:

1.  Unplug the Power Unit from the 120VAC Outlet.

2.  Lift the float switch on your sump pump. The pump should operate normally. The Power Unit is 

now converting the 12VDC from your battery into a pure sine wave 120 VAC output to your pump.

3.  Plug your Power Unit back into your home’s 120 VAC Outlet.
