The DC controller is equipped with a charger for maintaining the battery 
in a ready state and recharging the battery after use when AC power is 
restored. Time for recharge depends upon the amount of power consumed 
by the pumping cycle during the AC power interruption. The pump may go 
back to the ready run position in a very short period of time. A completely 

drained battery may require up to 24 hours for full recharge. If battery does 

not charge properly, the battery LED will flash red.

This system is a backup to your primary sump pump. It is designed to protect against flooding during power outages or primary pump failure. This system is 

unique in that it has self-testing and communication features when connected to the Z Control Cloud. The pump is self-priming and specifically designed and 

manufactured by Zoeller as a purpose-built DC sump pump, rather than a repurposed bilge pump. The controller has smart diagnostics built in. If the DC pump 

is unplugged or jammed, for example, a fault alarm will result. If either float switch is missing/unplugged, it will create an immediate alarm condition. The 

controller will recognize the difference between a pump that is pumping air vs. a pump that is pumping water. This will lead to behaviors designed to purge air 

and remedy an air lock situation. The controller also has smart float logic that is designed to prevent a continuous running pump (or run dry pump condition). 

Zoeller uses a normally open operational float switch, and a normally closed high water float switch. The advanced technology hardware and firmware in the 

Fit controller will recognize, attempt to remedy, and alarm for many conditions that have not previously been possible. The controller will automatically charge 

and maintain the battery in a way designed to extend battery life.

DESCRIPTION

The DC emergency pump system requires a good quality, 12 volt battery 
to obtain maximum pumping time during a power outage. A deep-cycle, 12 
volt, 90 amp-hour or larger marine battery is recommended. A 100+ amp 

hour battery will provide approximately 5.5 hours or more of continuous 
pumping time in a sump pump installation with 8' (2.4 m) of head pressure. 
In most installations, the pump runs intermittently and the battery life is 
extended accordingly. Batteries with top terminals are recommended for 
ease of installation. "Wet" cell batteries contain acid, and proper precaution 
must be taken when handling. Battery box will accommodate a maximum 

battery size of 13-1/2" (34.3 cm) Length x 7" (17.8 cm) Width x 9-1/2" (24.1 
cm) Height. AGM batteries also recommended. Do not use gel batteries 

or automotive batteries.

   Even during moderate pump cycling, the system may be capable of running indefinitely.

In instances where property damages are incurred as a result of an alleged product failure, the property 

owner must retain possession of the product for investigative purposes.
