This system is a backup to your primary sump pump. It is designed to provide flood prevention during power outages or primary pump failure. This 

system is unique in that it has self-testing and communication features (if using Z Control

®

 Cloud).

Battery 

Box

Construction

Non-corrodible plastic

Safety

Snap tight lid, keeps battery safe and clean

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 LED battery will flash red.

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 approximately 5 hours 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.
