The DC controller is equipped with a 10 amp 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 LCD will display BATFAIL and alarm will sound.

PERFORMANCE

The DC pump performance with fully charged 12V battery

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, 

105 amp-hour marine battery or larger is recommended and will provide ap-

proximately 6 hours of continuous pumping time in a sump pump installation 

with 8' 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. Maximum battery size 13½" 

Length x 7" Width x 9½" Height.
