EXPLODED VIEW - DC PUMP

primary pump using the clamp provided. Make certain the clamp is 

tight on the pipe to avoid slippage. Ensure that the "off" level of the 

float is 1" (2.5 cm) minimum above the outlet of the DC backup pump. 

Position the pumps in the sump and move float up and down, ensuring 

free movement without interference from any obstructions inside the 

sump or lid. The float switch can be moved on the discharge pipe, or 

the rubber stops can be adjusted as necessary. The top rubber stop 

is usually not needed. Cut off any extra float rod length below lower 

float  stop  to  prevent  debris  from  interfering  with  float  operation. 

Install the high water switch with the "on" level set at least 1" (2.5 cm) 

above the "on" level of the operational float using the supplied clamp. 

Move the switch up and down, ensuring free movement without 

interference from any obstructions inside the sump or lid.

 11.  Install the Fit Controller (see Figure 3) by using the anchors provided.  

For  best  cooling,  install  wall  mount  configuration.  The  controller 

should be located at least 3' (1 m) above the sump.

 12.  Connect the leads from the controller to the battery terminals.  

Positive  (+)  lead  to  positive  terminal  and  black  neg.  (-)  lead  to 

negative battery terminal.  

  

CAUTION

Correct battery hook-up is essential for operation 

of the system. Use wing nuts supplied with battery and eyelet 

connectors  on  battery  wire  leads.  The  positive  terminal  is  the 

larger  stud,  3/8"  (10  mm)  diameter.  The  smaller  stud,  5/16"  (8 

mm)  diameter  is  the  negative  terminal.  The  stud  sizes  on  some 

batteries  may  be  identical.  Apply  grease  to  the  terminals  to  help 

prevent corrosion. Tighten slightly past finger tight with a wrench. 

 

Always  use  extreme  caution  around  batteries.  Be  careful  not  to 

“cross” or “short across” the battery terminals with your wrench or 

any other metal object.

 13.  Connect the DC pump's plug into the controller terminal. 

 14.  Plug the controller into the 115 V wall outlet. The primary sump pump 

and the controller should be on separate circuits.

 15.  Reconnect power to the primary sump pump.

 16.  The Aquanot

®

 Fit Controller is designed for use with Z Control

.

  1.  The preferred method of installation for backup pumps is shown in Figure 1. 

 

The installation kit includes the parts needed to install as in Figure 1. A 

check valve is incorporated in the discharge of the backup pump.

    NOTE: Do not install in small spaces where the controller will not be 

properly cooled. Do not operate in > 80 

º

F environment.

  2.  Remove all parts from the shipping carton, and make sure all parts are 

included. Refer to the parts list on page 3.

  3.  Select a location for the battery and the controller. The controller must 

be within 8' (2.4 m) of a 115 V wall outlet and within 6' (1.8 m) of pump and 

basin. Connect to a separate electrical circuit from the primary pump.

  4.  If the primary pump is installed, disconnect power.

    NOTE: Discharge piping must be 1-1/2" SCH 40 PVC

  5.  Remove the discharge pipe from the pump and place it aside.

  6.  Screw check valve assembly into the primary pump discharge. Ensure 

the O-ring is properly located on the check valve. Press the slotted end 

of the discharge tee onto the check valve and secure with a hose clamp. 

Soapy water is recommended as a lubricant. 

    NOTE: The tee must be pushed all the way down onto the check valve to 

prevent leaking. Place the hose clamp at the bottom edge of the tee so 

that the slotted sections can sufficiently tighten around the check valve.

  7.  Solvent weld the discharge reducer fitting to the discharge tee as shown 

in Figure 4. Ensure the O-ring is properly located on the pump discharge. 

Slide the DC pump into the fitting, and tighten the hose clamp. Soapy 

water is recommended as a lubricant.

    NOTE: The pump must be pushed all the way into the fitting to prevent the 

fitting from leaking. Place the clamp at the edge of the fitting so that the 

slotted sections can sufficiently tighten around the pump discharge.

  8.  Measure, cut and solvent weld any remaining discharge piping above 

the tee. 

    NOTE: Check float operations to ensure the hose clamp screws will not 

interfere with the float operation of the primary pump.

  9.  Assemble  the  operational  float  assembly  per  Figure  3.  Install  float 

switches as seen in Figure 1. The top rubber stop is not needed unless 

the "on" level needs to be lowered.

 10.  Install the operational float switch bracket above the "on" level of the
