HC8000T Timed Sump Pump Controller
(Float Switch)
Overview:
The HC8000T Timed Sump Pump Controller will provide years of reliable and trouble-free service after completing a
simple and straightforward installation process. See Alarm & LED Guide, Smart Button Features, and Trou-
bleshooting sections for product details. This product is not rated for outdoor use.
READ PRIOR TO INSTALLATION:
1. The “piggyback plug” attached to the mechanical float switch cannot be used with the HC8000T. It
must be disconnected and remain disconnected.
2. If your sump pump has internal float switch wiring, i.e. does not have a “piggyback plug”, then you
must secure the float in an upward position as if the pit were full. This assures that the internal switch
is always closed and that the pump is enabled.
Step-by-Step Installation
Unplug the “piggyback plug” from the 120 VAC and set
aside. The HC8000T completely replaces this component.
Secure the SENSOR to the discharge pipe with tie wrap
where the pump is intended to turn on.
NOTE: Recommended height for the Sensor is slightly
below the Drain Tile (Water Inlet Pipe).
