BATTERY SELECTION

The DC emergency pump system requires good quality, 12 volt batteries to obtain maximum pumping time during a power outage. Deep-cycle, 12 volt,

130 amp-hour marine batteries are recommended and will provide approximately 7½ 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. Pumping time can also be extended by using additional batteries in parallel. Each additional battery increases

continuous run time by approximately 7½ hours. These batteries contain acid and proper precaution must be taken when handling. Maximum battery

size 12½" Length x 7" Width x 8" Height.

PERFORMANCE

The DC pump performance tested with fully charged marine battery.

The DC controller box is designed with a 10 amp battery charger for maintaining the battery in a ready state and for 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, one hour or less. A completely drained battery may require 18 hours for

total recharge. If more than one battery is used, the time for recharge increases proportionately for each additional battery.
